Applications

Cylindrical cut wire pellets

Cleaning of surfaces

Fettling, derusting and deburring (so-called blast cleaning) are mainly carried out using the conventional shot-blasting wheel process. Krampe cut wire pellets offer ideal material properties.

Conditioned cut wire pellets

Precision tool for shot peening

It has been proved that shot peening achieves outstanding work-hardened surfaces. Typical areas of application are ship-building or the construction of aircraft vehicles.

Steel shot and grit

Efficient surface finish medium

Steel shot from quenched and tempered steel and steel grit are characterised by their durability and high efficiency in finishing surfaces.

Stainless abrasives

Safe solution for noble metals

Krampe also offers specific-effect abrasives for conditioning stainless cut wire pellets and stainless steel shot provide the best results for blast-cleaning cast parts.

Glass beads

For sensitive surfaces and complicated profiles

Glass beads are suitable for finishing the surfaces of, for example, engine parts, but also for pre-treating surgical instruments or finishing the surfaces of jewellery.

Corundum

Processing of stainless steel, wood and plastics

Corundum is derived from best-quality bauxite. It is used for fettling cast steel or grey cast steel, for descaling stainless steel, or conditioning wood and plastic.

Chilled iron grit

Top of the class for compressed air blaster

Chilled iron granulate is used for coarse-blasting or for dressing and shaping hard stone, e.g. cutting granite, marble or normal concrete.

Plastic granulate

The economic and environmentally compatible alternative

Compared to conventional grinding, plastic granulates can achieve savings of about 50%. They also exhibit advantages with regard to health and environment.

Ceramic beads

Ceramic beads for the aerospace industry

Ceramic beads are characterised by their extremely favourable roundness factor and excellent fracture resistance. And they are the preferred shot media for the aviation and space travel industries.
