SHOT MEDIA COMPARISON DATA

The data below compares physical properties and the economical efficiency
of CHRONITAL^® vs. cast aluminum shot, glass beads,
stainless steel cut wire shot (conditioned) and ceramic beads.

Physical Properties
Type of Blast Medium	Bulk Density  lbs/ft3	Vickers Hardness (HV1)
		NEW	CONDITIONED
Chronital®	275	280-350	390-500
Aluminum Shot	120	100-140	130-170
Glass Beads	100	440	500
Stainless Cut Wire	280	400	600
Ceramic Beads	150	800	1000

Pronounced economic benefits can be realized by using Chronital^®  as your abrasive medium and more so when you are able to take into account, the unavoidable waste management as well.

Wear test (Ervin Tests) performed in our laboratories demonstrate that there is no cast stainless steel shot in the international market for abrasive shot materials with as high a resistance to wear as Chronital^®, at a comparable material hardness.  The duration of lifetimes of the cast stainless steel shot Chronital^® is comparable with that of stainless steel cut wire shot with considerable cost savings.
