Chilled Iron Grit
Chilled Iron Grit is produced from carefully selected alloy free iron scrap that is re-carbonized in a hot blast furnace. The shot obtained by this process is then crushed into grit.
Chilled Iron Grit is a white iron structure which shatters on impact rather than wearing round. Being harder than steel it has a quicker cleaning action.
Chilled Iron Grit is used in compressed-air blasting equipment in both blast rooms with abrasive reclaim systems and in portable pressure blast equipment.
Chilled Iron Grit is available in the following sizes:
#14, #18, #25, #40, #50 and #80.
The tight screen analysis of all sizes gurantees an even and consistent profile which will result in savings on primer and paint.
