Is Steel Grit Suitable for Shot Peening Applications?
Steel grit is a valuable tool in shot peening, providing high durability, consistent compressive stress, and excellent cost efficiency. Its angular shape and hardness make it ideal for improving the fatigue life of metal components, especially in high-impact applications. However, it is important to assess the specific requirements of each project. For delicate materials or where a finer surface finish is needed, other abrasives may be a better fit.
