How Steel Shot is Made
Steel shot is produced by melting high-quality steel scrap, which is then cooled under high-pressure water streams to form spherical droplets. These droplets are sorted by size, polished for smoothness, and heat-treated to achieve the desired hardness (46-51 HRC). Every batch undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure uniformity, durability, and high performance.
Benefits of Using Steel Shot
