What Is Mill Scale Removal Shot Blasting?

Mill scale removal by shot blasting strips the hard, brittle oxide layer that forms on hot-rolled steel during manufacturing. Mill scale must be removed before protective coatings are applied — if left in place, it causes premature coating failure as it detaches from the underlying steel. Shot blasting is the most effective and efficient method of mill scale removal.
