Product Description

Steel Cut Wire Shots:
Orient Cut Wire Shot are made of cold drawn spring steel wire with a high content of carbon (C) and is obtained by cutting wire into lengths equal to the wire diameter, and then making it round if necessary through the conditioning (rounding) process. The quality is assured in cut-wire shot because the wire from which it has been produced is heat treated and cold drawn to achieve hardness and homogeneity. This, together with the balanced chemical properties and complete solidity of every piece, insure that cut-wire shot will not fracture, break or powder while in use. During this process, Cut Wire Shots are obtained in 2 forms:                    
  • As-Cut: Due to its sharp edge, it works good only for cleaning where speed of cleaning is critical and somewhat rough finish is acceptable. But not advisable to use for peeing operation which can cause dent as they damage the fatigue life.
  • Conditioned: As-Cut Shots when rounded off through a conditioning process. It is used more in the shot peening process, also in different industries such as automotive industry, aerospace industry, shipping industry etc.      

Steel Cut Wire Shots (also called pellets) is used for cleaning, deburring, descaling, shot peening on components of iron & steel. Depending upon the application, various hardness ranges are available. Usually higher the hardness, lower the durability. It is whole-bodied shot with no scales or oxides present it creates no dust and leave the surface clean and bright than other abrasives.

The main features of our Steel Cut Wire Shots are:

  • Equal hardness and size and excellent homogeneity.
  • Due to fine grain size, shots lives for days and weeks, until every shot reduces to micro particle; they do not break into dust.
  • Components peened/blasted with cut wire shots have much greater life than the same components peened/blasted with any shots/grits, because it maintain there peening intensity longer than any other shot type.
  • Shot used in the shot peening/blasting process should be at least as hard as Almen strips or the part being peened/blasted.
  • Being used in more cycles (3-5 times), Cut Wire shots reduces the cost for maintenance and warehouse.
  • Lower Surface Contamination.
  • 100% solid material, no blowholes, tails & porosity. 
  • You can reduce the time for shot peening/blasting.
  • Cleans fast and gives bright & smooth finish than other abrasive.
  • Increases the fatigue life for the blasted objects.
  • No dust or health hazard during operation.

Technical & Physical Specifications:
We manufacture Quality product Steel Cut Wire Shots as per IS 5873/1970. Our Steel Cut Wire Shots are made from Spring Steel Wire having carbon contents of 0.4% to 0.85% with uniform hardness of 400 to 550 HV. Due to fine grain it does not break during shot blasting/peening, instead reduce in shape and size. It will give you smooth and better surface finishing. Life will provide you more than double the life than Steel Shots/ Grits and more than 5 times life than C.I Shots/Grits.

We are stating below the Specification and Feature of our product:

1. We are manufacturing our materials as per IS 5873/1970.

2. The raw materials made from Grade II Spring Steel Wire as per IS 4454.
