Zinc shot is a blasting abrasives manufactured from pure zinc, used primarily in the die casting manufactured from zinc, aluminum, manganese or other soft alloys for deburring, cleaning, descaling and finishing.
Application
Zinc shot is a blasting abrasives manufactured from pure zinc, used primarily in the die casting manufactured from zinc, aluminum, manganese or other soft alloys for deburring, cleaning, descaling and finishing.Excellent Deburring
Zinc is 2.5 times dense than aluminum. This density increased its deburring capability. Where aluminum shot removes burrs up to 0.3 mm. thick Siambrator's zinc shot easily removes burrs up to 0.5 mm. thick.
High Saving
Labor cost is reduced. With aluminum shot, burss with a thickness greater than 0.3 mm. must be removed by hand. The superior finishing action of our safety shot makes such manual deburring unnecessary.Energy cost is reduced by 30 - 40 % because of Siambrator's zinc shot, the speed at which it is projected onto the work surface can be reduced by about half that required for aluminum shot of the same size. Higher density zinc shot requires 1/2 blasting velocity of aluminum shot which results in less consumption of shot.
