Steel Shot Cost Calculation
Calculation Formulas
Total Media (kg) = Surface Area (m²) × Consumption Rate (kg/m²)
Cost / m² = Consumption Rate / Recycle Count × Unit Price
Total Cost = Total Media / Recycle Count × Unit Price
Consumption Rates
- Light Rust: 40 kg/m²
- Medium Rust: 60 kg/m²
- Heavy Rust: 80 kg/m²
- Paint Removal: 50 kg/m²
Media Prices
- S330 Steel Shot: $1.50/kg
- S460 Steel Shot: $1.80/kg
- Steel Grit (GP): $2.00/kg
- Garnet: $0.80/kg
