Steel Shots S-170

Steel shot size S-170 refers to a specific classification within the range of steel shots used in various industrial applications. The “S” denotes its spherical shape, and the number “170” indicates its nominal diameter in mesh size. In this case, S-170 has an approximate diameter of 0.0058 inches or 0.1473 millimeters. This particular size is commonly employed in abrasive blasting processes, such as shot peening and surface preparation, where the goal is to clean, strengthen, or modify the surface of materials like metal, concrete, or composites. S-170 steel shots are known for their durability and hardness, making them effective for removing rust, scale, and contaminants from surfaces, while also imparting a desirable texture or finish. The selection of steel shot size is crucial in achieving specific surface treatment results, and S-170 finds its niche in applications requiring precision and consistent performance.
