Glass Bead Shot Peening
(Patented Process)
Glass and ceramic shot peening and shot blasting are widely used to finish metal surface in order to increase the wear properties of complex shapes, such as gears. Glass bead shot blasting is used to provide a clean, bright satin finish for thin walled parts or thin welds. Ceramic shot provides a consistent surface finish that is less prone to stains or blemishes. We provide high volume automotive gear glass bead shot peening.
