BH rigorously inspects steel through a detailed process to ensure product quality. Sampling involves random selection from each batch for comprehensive testing, including chemical analysis and mechanical properties. Samples are mounted in bakelite and examined microscopically to assess hardness using ASTM E 384 standards, check microstructures after etching, and identify defects such as voids and cracks. Density tests and magnetic separation quantify nonmagnetic contaminants, ensuring low impurity levels. Finally, sieve analysis confirms particle size distribution, adhering to SAE J444 standards. This meticulous approach ensures each batch of steel shots meets stringent quality criteria.
Cut wire shots, especially when conditioned, have enhanced hardness and toughness, making them more durable and resistant to wear during abrasive blasting processes.
Cut wire shots have consistent size and shape, ensuring uniform coverage and performance during blasting or cleaning, leading to more predictable results.
With processes like tumbling and polishing, cut wire shots have smoother surfaces and fewer sharp edges, reducing the risk of surface damage on the workpieces during use.
Compared to other abrasives like sand or grit, cut wire shots generate less dust during use, providing a cleaner working environment and contributing to better air quality.
Due to their high strength and durability, cut wire shots can be reused multiple times, making them cost-effective in the long term
The uniformity in size and shape leads to consistent performance, ensuring efficient and effective cleaning, deburring, or shot peening.
The smooth, uniform nature of cut wire shots reduces the risk of damaging the blasting equipment, extending its lifespan.
They can be used for surface cleaning, rust removal, deburring, and shot peening. Ideal for automotive, aerospace, metalworking, etc..
The as-cut cut wire shot is produced by simply cutting wire into small, uniform pieces without any additional processing, such as heat treatment or polishing. The wire is typically made of carbon steel, stainless steel, or other alloys, and is fed into a cutting machine that chops it into pieces of a specific length, typically 1.5 to 3 times the diameter of the wire.
The production of normal-conditioning cut wire shot involves additional steps after the initial cutting process. These conditioning processes usually include heat treatment, which includes hardening and tempering. Following heat treatment, the shot is subjected to tumbling or polishing, processes that smooth the edges and improve improve the hardness, surface finish, and uniformity of the shot.
The as-cut wire shot undergoes heat treatment (hardening and tempering), and then, subjected to surface treatment, including passivation for corrosion resistance and polishing or tumbling to smooth the surface and remove sharp edges. Optionally, the shot may undergo shot peening to strengthen metal components by inducing compressive stress.

Cut wire shot is primarily used for abrasive blasting applications, including surface cleaning, deburring, and shot peening. In surface cleaning, it removes rust, scale, and contaminants from metal surfaces, especially in industries like automotive, aerospace, and metalworking. For deburring, cut wire shot is used to smooth edges and remove sharp or unwanted projections from machined parts. In shot peening, it strengthens metal components by inducing compressive stress to improve fatigue resistance, often used in manufacturing gears, springs, and turbine blades. It’s also ideal for preparation before coating and enhancing surface finishes in various industrial processes.
The regular raw materials used to produce cut wire shots include various metals and alloys, chosen based on the desired application. The most common materials are:
These materials provide different properties, such as hardness, durability, and resistance to corrosion, to suit various industrial needs.
Cut wire shot is manufactured through a multi-step process. First, a wire made from materials like carbon steel, stainless steel, or aluminum is selected. The wire is then cut into uniform lengths, typically 1.5 to 3 times its diameter, using a cutting machine. After cutting, the shot may undergo heat treatment (hardening and tempering) to enhance hardness and durability. Tumbling or polishing follows to smooth the edges and improve surface finish. In some cases, the shot is passivated for corrosion resistance. Finally, the shot is inspected for size, shape, and quality before being packaged for shipment.
Cut wire shot typically comes in sizes ranging from 0.3 to 2.0 mm, as cut or conditioning levels G1, G2, and G3 offering versatility for different applications.
When referring to G1, G2, and G3 as conditioning levels of cut wire shot, they describe the extent of surface treatment and refinement applied to the shot after it is cut from the wire. These levels reflect the smoothness, uniformity, and hardness of the shot, which can influence its performance in various applications like shot peening, abrasive blasting, or surface cleaning.
