What is Shot Blasting?

Shot blasting is often used as an effective method of removing dirt, paint or rust from an object using compressed air and a blasting medium. This method of blasting is very forgiving on rusty metal and fibreglass both of which can be damaged by acid dipping, that is why it’s popular for areas which have been repaired in the past. Shot blasting is an effective method of removing coatings and paint from a variety of surface types such as brickwork, wood, iron, steel, glass, concrete, fibreglass and stone. An added benefit of blasting is how it prepares a steel surface prior to blasting. This ensures when a coating is applied, the correct amount of adhesion occurs. If you’re looking for a very cost and time effective technique which uses ecologically friendly materials then look no further than shot blasting. Galvanising is used to protect steel from the elements but this process requires a strong level of adhesion for it to be effective. A shot blasted surface provides this level of adhesion.

Sand blasting is another name commonly used for shot blasting, a wide variety of applications in both commercial and domestic sectors can make use of this technique. Vehicles, buildings and garden furniture are just some of the possible applications of shot blasting. Our team uses a variety of different media to blast clean a range of objects and surfaces.

Shot Blasting VS Sand Blasting

Sand blasting is an old term now as the abrasive blasting industry rarely uses sand for the blasting media. Sand can be difficult to work with and there are far better blasting media options available today, most of which have the added advantage of being safer to work with.

Sand used to be the go to product in abrasive blasting, as it was more readily available than any other media. The biggest challenge facing sand as an abrasive is it’s a health hazard when inhaled.

Modern abrasives out perform sand and offer a wider range of purposes in which they can be used. These abrasives are also much safer to use than sand which is why they are used more in modern industry.
