Steel Cut Wire Shot Production Process
1. Production of steel cut wire shot starts with high-grade steel which is melted in a furnace and then cast into billets or long, continuous strips of steel.
2. The billets are then reheated to a specific temperature, cut into small sections and shaped into wire rods through rolling operations.
3. The wire is drawn through dies, reducing its diameter and increasing its length while creating the wire from which the shot will be cut.
4. Post-production treatments involve cleaning and grading for size consistency in order to meet required specifications for diameter and length.
5. Different grades of steel cut wire shot are adjusted according to customer needs and the specific application.
6. Strict safety protocols are enforced throughout production as well as rigorous quality control tests for hardness, size consistency, and structural integrity before distribution.

FAQ
1. What is cut wire shot used for?
Steel Cut Wire Shot is primarily used in shot peening operations, delivering superior performance across industries such as Automotive, Oil & Gas, Aerospace, and Medical. In addition to peening, it can also be employed in cleaning and descaling operations.
Other metallic cut wire types, such as zinc and aluminum, are commonly used in various applications like descaling aluminum die casting and non-sparking tasks, making them versatile solutions for specific industrial needs.
2. How is cut wire shot manufactured?
Cut wire shot pellets are produced by cutting a metallic wire into lengths equal to the wire diameter. For shot peening, the pellets are rounded to eliminate sharp edges (conditioned), ensuring safe and effective use.
3.What are the available sizes and conditioning levels of cut wire shot?
Cut wire shot typically comes in sizes ranging from 0.3 to 2.0 mm, offering versatility for different applications.
