Shot Peening

Depending on factors such as shot quality, material, intensity and coverage, shot peening can increase fatigue life by as much as 1000%. Shot peening can also be used for cosmetic purposes, creating a roughness that scatters light from the surface more effectively than with processes like sand blasting.

Shot peening is a cold working process used to produce a compressive residual stress layer and modify the mechanical properties of metals. It entails impacting a surface with shot (round metallic, glass, or ceramic particles) with a force sufficient to create slight material deformation.

At Oil City Machining we have the capabilities to complete every project. Shot-peening or Bead Blasting is a stress-factor component to create long lasting products for our customers. We are outfitted to be able to shot-peen any projects big or small. We also include Glass-beading services for decontamination and aesthetic product finishes when required.
