What Does “Shot Peening” Do & How It Increases Strength In Metals
Shot peening is a process invented in the 1930s specifically for the purpose of increasing the fatigue strength of various metal components that encounter high levels of alternating stress on a regular basis (i.e. motorcycle engines and chains). In other words, it makes shot peened parts on your bike stronger and last for much longer than they normally would. Below you'll find a brief synopsis of shot peening...
