GP Angular Shot
Description N/A W Abrasives technical studies have shown that at an average of 44 HRC hardness, GP Angular-shot™ provides the optimum performance in many foundry and other cleaning applications. These studies show that the performance characteristics of GP Angular-shot™ are similar to steel shot but also have the extra initial aggressiveness of an angular material. Due to the rapid rounding of GP Angular-shot™ there is no increase in abrasive consumption or machine wear.

New product would look similar to steel grit.

Standard deviation N/A ±3Rc or ± 240 HV
Microstructure N/A Well controlled manufacturing gives die a martensitic structure that blends the iron and carbon atoms in the finest and most ideal way possible. This structure produces a homogeneity or hardness and resistance throughout the shot. Without this structure the shot would not have the resistance necessary for the applications in which it is used.
