6K Series
High Performance Shot Peening Media
The TOCO 6K Series is a premium range of conditioned cut wire shots designed for high-performance blasting and peening. Made from high grade, precision-cut, heat-treated wire, it offers exceptional durability with a lifespan of around 6,000 cycles, which is 50-75% longer than standard media. Engineered for stability and consistent performance, the 6K Series is ideal for demanding, high-volume operations where extended media life reduces downtime and costs.
Key Features of the TOCO 6K Series
Enhanced Durability
The TOCO 6K Series features customized wire grades and carefully selected raw materials that significantly increase product lifespan. With an impressive running cycle of approximately 6000, our cut wire shots provide 50 - 75% more longevity compared to traditional cut wire shots, which typically last around 3000 to 3500 cycles.
Flexibility
Available in various hardness and shapes, the TOCO 6K Series can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of different applications.
Eco-Friendly
The extended lifespan of the TOCO 6K Series decreases production and transportation cycles, leading to a significant reduction in overall carbon emissions. By requiring fewer replacements and reducing transportation needs, we help contribute to sustainability goals. Our products also reduce waste and conserve valuable resources by enhancing longevity and reducing landfill contributions.

Advantages
Extended Life
Lasts 50–75% longer (~6,000 cycles), reducing replacement frequency.
Lower Operating Cost
Less downtime, lower maintenance and cleaning helps in saving material, transport, and handling costs.
Improved Productivity
Longer-lasting media shortens blasting cycles by 15–20%.
Better Process Consistency
Uniform hardness and shape ensure steady blasting or peening intensity over time.
Environmental Sustainability
Less media usage cuts waste, transport, and CO₂ emissions, reducing carbon footprint.
Less Equipment Wear
Smooth, rounded media protects equipment and nozzles, minimizing maintenance needs.
CO2 Emissions
Traditional steel shots generate 3.5 tons of CO2 emissions per 1MT consumed, as they last around 2,500 cycles, leading to frequent production, transport, and recycling. Our new product, designed to last around 5,000-6000 cycles, significantly reduces the need for replacement. This extended lifespan results in a 50% reduction in carbon emissions, making our solution environmentally friendly, all while maintaining high performance and efficiency.
