The core difference
Steel shot is spherical and cleans mainly through impact, producing a smoother finish. Steel grit is angular and cuts into the surface to remove scale and create a coating profile.
Choose by application
- Use steel shot for foundry cleaning, desanding and shot peening.
- Use steel grit for rust removal, descaling and coating preparation.
- Match particle size and hardness to your machine and desired result.
