Aloxite Grit Shot Blasting Media is a type of abrasive blasting media made from aluminum oxide.
What is Aloxite Grit Shot media?
It is used for shot blasting, a process that involves propelling the abrasive media at a high velocity to clean or prepare surfaces for further processing, such as painting, coating, or bonding.
Aloxite Grit Shot Blasting Media is made from high-quality, durable aluminum oxide grains that are carefully sized and graded to ensure consistent performance. It is available in various grit sizes, which determines the aggressiveness of the blasting process.
Aloxite offers several advantages including; high efficiency, low dust generation, and excellent surface finish. It is commonly used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, construction, and metalworking for surface preparation, cleaning, and finishing applications.
What is shot blasting?
Shot blasting is a surface preparation process in which small metal or mineral particles, called shot, are propelled at a high velocity onto a surface.
The shot particles impact the surface and remove:
- any contaminants
- rust, scale
- old coatings
- leaving the surface clean and roughened.
The shot blaster uses compressed air or centrifugal force to propel the shot particles.
