Steel Shots S-280

Description

Steel shot size S-280 is a specific classification of abrasive particles used in shot blasting applications. The designation “S-280” indicates the size of the particles, where “S” represents steel, and “280” corresponds to the nominal diameter in hundredths of an inch—approximately 0.028 inches. These steel shots are widely used in industrial processes such as shot peening and abrasive blasting, playing a vital role in surface preparation, cleaning, and material strengthening. The S-280 size is chosen based on the required impact energy and surface coverage, making it ideal for efficiently and uniformly removing rust, scale, and old coatings from various surfaces.
