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 | Higher Purchase Price |
