High Carbon Steel Cut Wire Shot as per AMS 2431/8B.
These wire shots are formed by cutting wire into lengths equal to wire diameter.
These are particularly used for peening applications where a higher level of abrasive hardness is desirable.
Strict Quality Control procedures are required to be able to manufacture cut wire
shot meeting all common industry specifications as well as many individual customer specifications.
Different levels of conditioning.
CW – As Cut
G1 – Single Conditioned
G2 – Double conditioned
G3 – Spherically conditioned
Size: 0.3 – 3.0 mm
