Product details
Chilled Iron Grit is a high-hardness, angular abrasive media designed for aggressive surface cleaning, rust and paint removal, descaling, roughening, and abrasive blasting applications. Airo Shot Blast Equipments manufactures and supplies chilled iron grit in India in multiple grades and sizes, with hardness of 56 HRC or higher and prices ranging from ₹150-₹500 per kg, depending on grade and size. Order chilled iron grit in your required specification for industrial blasting, casting cleaning, stone cutting, and surface preparation, and contact us for bulk pricing, availability, and a customized quotation.
Chilled iron grit is an angular metallic abrasive made from chilled (white) cast iron. Molten iron is cast into shot, rapidly cooled to lock in a very hard structure, then crushed and screened into graded sizes. The result is sharp-edged grey grit that cuts fast and breaks into new sharp fragments as it wears. It is also sold as iron grit, white iron grit and chilled cast iron grit.
The iron is cooled very quickly, so its carbon stays in hard carbide form instead of soft graphite. That gives the grit its hardness and cutting edges.
Chilled iron grit is a highly effective, immediate cleaning hematite cast iron abrasive. It is an installation boiler liquefied chilled iron abrasive & its inert residual elements, jointly in the establishment of a tightly regulated chemical computation assure an illustrative useful life. Chilled iron grit is predominantly utilized in air blast applications, such as blast rooms & independent abrasive blasting machine; blast acceleration is significantly higher compared with steel grit.
Chilled iron grit is a sharp, hard, angular, metallic abrasive preferably fitted for intensely quick blast cleaning of steel & iron fragments. It can also be employed as a high-density filler in marine ballast employment.
| Grade | Chilled Iron Grit Size (mm) | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| G80 | 2.0-2.8 | Heavy scale and thick coating removal |
| G66 | 1.7-2.4 | Heavy descaling |
| G55 | 1.4-2.0 | Heavy rust removal |
| G47 | 1.2-1.7 | Rust and mill scale removal |
| G39 | 1.0-1.4 | General cleaning |
| G34 | 0.85-1.2 | General cleaning and surface profiling |
| G24 | 0.6-1.0 | Surface preparation before painting |
| G17 | 0.42-0.85 | Finer surface preparation |
| G12 | 0.3-0.71 | Fine cleaning, light profile |
| G07 | 0.18-0.42 | Fine finishing |
| G05 | 0.12-0.3 | Very fine finishing |
| G02 | ≤ 0.13 | Ultra-fine finishing |
Quick choice: coarse grades (G80-G47) for heavy rust and scale, medium (G39-G24) for paint preparation, fine (G17-G02) for finishing. Coarse grit gives a deeper profile and fine grit a smoother one.
Our chilled iron shot castings are extensively employed in metalworks for manufactory cleaning & sand subtraction. Apart from this, they are also employed to clean kettles & coppers, as well as components for vessel weight & angler's roost weight. We recommend chilled Iron grits, which are basically white iron pieces assembled with a premium iron shot a particular has considerable elevated level of hardness & precise angles. We are one of the best chilled iron grit manufacturers in India.
Our extensive range of chilled iron grits is utilized in air sand blasting machine implementation, casting cleaning, stone cutting, & the extraction of aged paints & metallurgical compounds. In a similar vein, these chilled iron grits work well accompanied by structural steel & other elements earlier than coating with paint, polymers, & metal spray.
| Element | Content |
| Carbon (C) | 3.00 - 3.40 % |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.30 - 1 % |
| Silicon (Si) | 1 -1.50 % |
| Sulphur (S) | 0.10 - 0.30 % |
| Phosphorus (P) | 0.7 - 0.17 % |
| Factor | Chilled iron grit | Steel grit |
| Hardness | Higher (≥56 HRC) | Medium-high |
| Toughness | More brittle, breaks down faster | Tougher, longer life |
| Cutting speed | Very fast | Fast |
| Best for | Aggressive cleaning, fast rust and scale removal | Longer-life cleaning, peening |
| Finish | Sharper, deeper profile | More controlled profile |
Rule of thumb: choose chilled iron grit for fast, aggressive cleaning. Choose steel grit when you want a longer media life.
