Steel Shot Recovery Cart - Efficient Magnetic Collection Solution
Designed for industrial environments where steel shot (0.2-2.5mm diameter) is widely used in blasting, peening, or surface treatment processes, the Steel Shot Recovery Cart is a specialized tool to reclaim scattered abrasive, ensuring safety, cost savings, and operational efficiency. Here's a detailed product breakdown:
Core Technology: Magnetic Recovery System
At the heart of the cart is a permanent magnetic drum (stainless steel housing, diameter smaller than wheels) embedded with high-strength strip magnets arranged at 180°-270° angles in the cross-section. As the cart rolls over floors, magnets steel shot from surfaces, while non-magnetic debris (dust, dirt) remains untouched. A precision scraper blade mounted on the front frame continuously strips collected shot into an integrated removable hopper, avoiding manual cleaning. The design ensures 99% recovery efficiency and zero dust contamination, ideal for recycling up to 3,000 times (as per SAE-standard steel shot specifications).
Ergonomic Design & Functional Features
- Dual-Wheel Mechanism: Front (fixed) and rear (360° swivel) enable smooth maneuvering in tight spaces, with a low-profile stainless steel base (20mm clearance) for optimal magnetic contact.
- Quick-Release Hopper: Detachable, handle-equipped hopper (e.g., 56x38cm size) allows effortless transport to recycling points. Optional models include a pedal-activated magnetic lift system (patented design), where stepping a lever raises the magnet, dropping shot into a chute for hands-free unloading.
- Durable Construction: Heavy-duty steel frame (25mm tubing, 2mm thickness) resists corrosion and supports up to 220 lbs. Rubber-coated wheels with bearings ensure quiet, stable movement on factory floors.

Applications & Use Cases
- Post-Blasting Cleanup: Ideal for (shot blasting machines) in steel structure fabrication, casting, or automotive plants, where stray shot accumulates at machine inlets/outlets.
- Workshop Floors: Efficiently collects shot from uneven surfaces in foundries, shipyards, or aerospace component workshops, preventing slip hazards.
- Mobile Operations: Portable design suits on-site projects, such as road surface (e.g., bridge deck treatment), where trailing the cart behind equipment recovers abrasive instantly.
