Aluminum Shot and Cut Wire
Light, soft aluminium media in A1070, A1050, 5056 and 1100 for thin-wall and light-alloy work that heavier media would deform.
Who This Range Is For
- Plants blasting aluminium and zinc parts that need an obvious white effect
- Manufacturers of thin or delicate workpieces where heavier media would distort the part
- Shops that must avoid any iron contamination on light alloy surfaces
Problems It Solves
- Steel media is too heavy for thin sections and marks or distorts the part
- Iron pick-up on aluminium creates rust spots after the part leaves the line
- Media that is too hard closes the surface instead of cleaning it
Core Advantages
- Density of 2.7 g/cm³ and hardness of 65 to 125 HV give a gentle cutting action
- Bright appearance with the obvious white effect the old site describes
- Available as cut (column form) or conditioned (rounded) from the same wire stock
