Round steel shot is produced from high-carbon steel and engineered for surface treatment applications that demand maximum energy transfer through rebound impact. Its spherical shape and hardness ensure high durability, making it ideal for blast cleaning, surface preparation, and peening processes.
The consistent performance of round steel shot delivers excellent cleaning efficiency, reduced cycle times, and longer media life.

Metal industries - which represent a world market of more than 1 million tons of abrasives:
- Surface cleaning : in the foundry (sand removal and cleaning of parts), in the forge and stainless steel industry (descaling). - Surface preparation : cleaning, surface roughening to ensure optimum adherence of paint and coatings. - Surface enhancement : shot peening treatment against deformation, wear and corrosion.
Stone industry - which consumes a little over 155 000 tons of abrasives per year: granite cutting by abrasive in a liquid suspension, the abrasive circulates inside gangsaws and is used for cutting stone blocks into thin slabs.
Other applications have been of use in the mining industry (with Millpebs) and in the building and civil engineering sector (production of WearGrit, a new ultra-high performance concrete based on steel abrasives). Finally, the physical properties of the steel abrasives make it a very interesting material for precision ballasting.
The round steel shots are used with succes for shot blasting all types of metal surfaces.
