Difference between Steel Cut Wire Shot Carbon Steel Cut Wire Shot:
| Cast Steel Shot |
Cut Wire Steel Shot |
| Basic Raw Material is far Lower in Physical properties Composition. This cause BLOW HOLES, POROSITY SHRINKAGE, which makes the shot FRACTURE into SMALL PARTICLES |
Raw Material is of EXACT Composition without any material defects or HOLES OROSITY |
| Grain size of cast shot is UNSTABILIZED |
Due to its Drawing process, the grain size is STABILIZED |
| Shot being produced are of mixed size, hence product is a mix of various spherical sizes |
All cut wire shot being out of same wire, hence are IDENTICAL |
| Hardness variation is large |
Uniform hardness |
| In Micro-structure Carbide always there |
Micro-Structure is only Tempered . Martensite |
| Steel Shot break in-to Dust |
Cut wire shot only WEAR DOWN |
| Higer Consumption requires high Inventory, more Money Space as well |
Lower Inventory requires , for the SAME job |
| Shot consumption is higher |
Less Consumption than Cast Shot |
| Increases Working Cycle Time, due to higher consumption in shot blasting/peening |
Reduce time for shot blasting / peening |
| No Consistency in performance, due to fast deterioration in Size |
Consistent Performance |
| Less usage life |
Usage life is 2-3 times more |
| Lower Purchase Price |

Superior Hardness and DurabilityThanks to a hardness range of 4060 HRC and high durability, Carbon Steel Cut Wire Shots are ideal for rigorous shot blasting and surface cleaning tasks. Their resistant structure ensures longer life cycles and supports multiple reuses, reducing operational costs and downtime.
Versatile Application Across IndustriesThese abrasive media are used extensively in automotive, shipbuilding, foundry, and construction sectors. Their consistent grain size and roundness deliver reliable performance in deburring, cleaning, and polishing of metal surfaces, preparing components for coating or further finishing.
Customization and Quality AssuranceCustomers can request customized grades, granule sizes, and packaging. As an ISO 9001:2015 certified supplier, each batch undergoes strict quality checks to guarantee low impurity content and optimal roundness, meeting diverse requirements efficiently.
FAQs of Carbon Steel Cut Wire Shots:
Q: How are Carbon Steel Cut Wire Shots manufactured?
A: These shots are produced using a cold drawn process where high-quality carbon steel wire is cut into precise lengths. The resulting pieces are then finished to achieve a predominantly rounded shape with minimum 85% roundness, ensuring consistent abrasive action.
Q: What are the main uses of Carbon Steel Cut Wire Shots?
A: They are primarily used for shot blasting, surface cleaning, deburring, and polishing of metal surfaces. Industries such as automotive, construction, foundry, and shipbuilding utilize them for preparing surfaces for painting, coating, or further processing.
Q: What benefits does high hardness (4060 HRC) provide for these shots?
A: The elevated hardness enables effective removal of scale, rust, and contaminants, while also enhancing the shots wear resistance and lifespan. This results in fewer replacements and consistent cleaning performance over extended cycles.
Q: Where can Carbon Steel Cut Wire Shots be used in industrial applications?
A: They are suitable for blast cleaning chambers, surface treatment workstations, and shot peening systems across automotive component makers, shipyards, construction material manufacturers, and metal foundries.
Q: Can the product be customized to meet specific requirements?
A: Yes, customization is available for granule size, packaging, and grade to match particular client needs. Manufacturers also offer tailored solutions for quantity and dimensional tolerances as required by the application.
Q: What makes these shots environmentally and operationally favorable?
A: With high recyclability, low impurity content, and non-ferrous composition, they contribute to eco-friendly manufacturing practices. Their robust durability further decreases material waste and operational downtime.
Q: How does quality assurance ensure reliable product performance?
A: Each batch is subjected to a QC process conforming to ISO 9001:2015 standards, verifying hardness, roundness, impurity levels, and physical properties to guarantee consistent, high-quality abrasive results for all applications.
