Stainless Steel Cut Wire Shots
Stainless Steel Cut Wire Shots are high-precision metallic media designed for blasting, cleaning, and peening applications. Each shot is cut from high-grade stainless steel wire and engineered to deliver uniform shape, durability, and performance across every cycle. Because of its durability, cleanliness, and consistent performance, stainless steel cut wire shot is favored in applications where quality, repeatability, and lifetime cost are critical. Ideal for use on stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, and other non-ferrous materials, these shots eliminate the risk of ferrous contamination, preventing corrosion or discoloration on finished surfaces.
