Shot Peening Gears

Shot peening is an essential process for enhancing the fatigue strength and lifespan of gears, key components in automotive and industrial machinery. At Halo Metal Prep, we specialize in shot peening gears to improve their resistance to fatigue failures, stress corrosion cracking, and premature wear. This process involves bombarding gear surfaces with small, spherical media to impart a layer of compressive stress, which significantly extends their operational life.

Utilizing shot peened gears in machinery offers substantial advantages. The compressive stresses induced by shot peening counteract the tensile stresses that gears endure during operation, which are responsible for fatigue and failure. This treatment is crucial for gears operating under high stress or in adverse conditions, as it enhances their durability and performance. At Halo Metal Prep, our precise shot peening process increases the depth and intensity of compressive stresses, further enhancing gear robustness and service life.

Partnering with Halo Metal Prep for gear shot peening means choosing precision, durability, and long-term performance. Our advanced technology and experienced technicians deliver uniform treatment that strengthens gear surfaces, reduces fatigue risk, and extends service life. With more than 40 years of expertise, Halo Metal Prep ensures every gear is prepared to perform reliably under demanding conditions.
