Why Steel Shot S390 for Industrial Blasting
Steel Shot S390 is produced by atomizing molten high-carbon steel and quenching it into a spherical shape. The resulting media is dense, durable, and resistant to fracture under repeated impact. The spherical profile generates a uniform peening pattern and consistent surface roughness, which is critical for fatigue life improvement and coating adhesion.
Compared to angular grit, S390 shot produces lower dust levels and maintains its shape over more cycles. This makes it a cost-effective choice for operations that prioritize media longevity and stable surface finish outcomes. Typical applications include shot peening of gears, springs, and shafts, as well as general descaling of castings and forgings before painting or plating.
Selecting the Right Grade and Pack Size
Steel Shot S390 is defined by its size distribution and hardness range. The S390 designation follows SAE J444 / AMS 2431 sizing conventions. Buyers should specify the required screen size range and hardness class (GP or GH) based on the target surface profile and equipment type.
SPA2Z offers flexible pack options to match your consumption rate and handling setup. Choose from 25 kg bags for manual loading, 50 kg bags for medium-duty hoppers, 1-ton jumbo bags for bulk silo feeding, or drum packs for controlled dispensing. We help you determine the right grade, pack size, and replenishment schedule based on your blast machine specifications and production volume.

Applications
Common industrial uses for this abrasive.
Shot Peening
Induces compressive stress on gears, springs, shafts, and turbine blades to improve fatigue life. S390 spherical shot delivers controlled peening intensity.
Descaling & Cleaning
Removes mill scale, rust, and heat treatment scale from castings, forgings, and fabricated structures before coating or plating.
Surface Preparation
Creates a uniform anchor profile for paint, powder coating, and thermal spray adhesion on ferrous and non-ferrous substrates.
Foundry & Forge Cleaning
Cleans sand, ceramic shell residue, and oxide from cast and forged components in tumble blast and table blast machines.
