Stainless Steel Abrasives
Blasting is a necessary step in preparing the surface of industrial equipment for optimal performance, including additional modifications such as deburring and the removal of the existing coating, rust, scale, and dirt. Additionally, it can be used to abrasive the surface to make it as smooth as possible prior to beginning the machine, as well as to strengthen the surface prior to coating, painting, etc.
Winoa (Thailand) distributes high-quality metal abrasives under the W Abrasives® brand that meet international standards under strict production control, including Steel Shot, Steel Grit, stainless steel abrasives, and special grade abrasives such as Hybrid Shot®, Stainium®, Profilium® and HPG® that are exclusive to Winoa (Thailand) and make smooth surface blasting operations more efficient and environmentally friendly.
FAQ
1. How are W Abrasives® special grade abrasives distinct from other abrasives?
For W Abrasives® abrasives, exclusive to Winoa (Thailand), are abrasives that have been developed specifically for a certain sort of abrasive work in order to achieve greater efficiency than ordinary abrasives.
- Premium Hybrid Shot® abrasive grit - Combining Shot and Grit advantages in a suitable ratio for surface cleaning of cast iron and forging applications; boosts component cleanliness and decreases cycle time
- Profilium® grit - Designed for use in situations involving air blasting. It has a steady profile and low conductivity, making it ideal for workpiece or machine surface preparation. Stainium® Steel Shot abrasives and HPG® Steel Grit abrasives are also available as high-quality W Abrasives® abrasives.
2. How does Steel Shot differ from Steel Grit?
Steel shot abrasives are spherical and are frequently used to clean the surface of workpieces. They are most frequently employed in the Shot Preening process, which repeatedly fires the surface with Steel Shot to increase the surface's strength. This type of steel abrasive is appropriate for cleaning, desanding, and descaling castings as well as strengthening gears, springs, and other machine surfaces. Steel Grit is often a square-shaped grit that is ideal for desanding, removing dirt, old coating, or leftover surface particles in order to prepare the surface for a future coating.
3. Which type of metal abrasives should be performed most effectively?
Regarding surface material and equipment, each sort of blasting work is distinct. Steel grit can be used for desanding, descaling, and cleaning ferrous metal surfaces, such as carbon steel, stainless steel, cast iron, and ductile iron. Consider, however, a non-ferrous metal surface, such as aluminum or titanium, which is more bendable than ferrous metals. In this instance, it is preferable to use stainless steel grit to soften the surface in order to avoid surface damage.
