Product Description
Ceramic shot peening beads service life 20 times longer than glass beads
Shot peening is a cold working process used to produce a compressive residual stress layer and modify mechanical properties of metals and composites, enhancing the fatigue resistance of mechanical parts made of metallic alloys such as hard steel, titanium and aluminum, also to shape and straighten slim hard alloys for aerospace structural components.
In the shot peening process, the surface is hammered with small round shot media (steel shot, glass beads and ceramic beads).
Ceramic beads are zirconia based shot peening media, manufactured by electro-fusion at high temperatures, are high wear and fracture-resistant.
Ceramic beads are available in a shot-peening grade and a surface finishing grade.
