Zinc Cut Wire S110

Zinc Cut Wire S110 for Contamination-Free Peening

When blasting or peening soft metals like aluminum or magnesium, traditional steel shot can leave behind ferrous residue that promotes galvanic corrosion. Zinc Cut Wire S110 eliminates this risk. Its metallic zinc composition is compatible with non-ferrous alloys, making it the preferred choice for aerospace components, automotive castings, and precision-machined parts where surface integrity is critical.

The cylindrical shape of cut wire shot provides a balance between the aggressive cleaning of angular grit and the smooth peening of spherical cast shot. Over multiple impact cycles, the edges of zinc cut wire gradually round, maintaining a consistent working mix that delivers repeatable surface finish results. This makes S110 particularly effective for applications requiring both light cleaning and controlled peening intensity.

Typical Applications of Zinc Cut Wire S110

• Shot Peening: Induces compressive stress on aluminum and magnesium alloy parts to improve fatigue life and prevent stress corrosion cracking.
• Surface Cleaning: Removes oxides, light burrs, and surface contaminants from non-ferrous castings and forgings without altering critical dimensions.
• Cosmetic Finishing: Produces a uniform matte or satin finish on brass, copper, and zinc die-cast components for architectural hardware, consumer goods, and decorative items.
• Deburring: Gently removes fine burrs from precision-machined soft metal parts without causing edge rounding or dimensional changes.

Selection and Handling Guidance

Zinc Cut Wire S110 is typically used in suction blast cabinets and pressure blast systems. It is not recommended for wheel blast machines due to the softer nature of zinc, which can deform under high-velocity mechanical impingement. For optimal results, maintain a working mix with a balance of fresh cut wire and rounded particles. Regularly screen the media to remove fines and contaminants. Store in a dry environment to prevent oxidation of the zinc surface. While zinc offers some corrosion resistance, prolonged exposure to moisture can cause white rust formation.
