Vibratory Services

Our vibratory deburring services remove unwanted tool marks and machining lines from firearm parts, enhancing surface finishing and blending imperfections prior to coating. Vibratory deburring also creates a controlled and uniform edge radius, which provides consistent precision and performance for firearm components.

Blasting & Surface Prep

Eaglemaster offers a number of blasting services that are integral to both the preparation and finishing of firearms parts. Bead blasting offers uniform coverage and can produce either smooth textures for improving functionality or aggressive textures for better grip or eventual coating applications. Other blasting services, such as grit blasting, are perfect for cleaning and descaling parts after heat treatment. Depending on your desired aesthetics and eventual part function, Eaglemaster’s blasting services can provide various finish options for a number of functions and aesthetics for parts in all kinds of materials, including aluminum, plastic and steel.

Shot Peening

Shot peening is a process that improves the stress resistance and material fatigue life for all kinds of firearms parts. Our shot peening services are certified to meet industry standards, including AMS and MIL, and can also be altered to meet your specific requirements. Shot peening is commonly used with a number of components, including: 

• Bolts
• Control components
• Extractors
• Firing pins
• High-stress stamped components 
• Springs

Polishing & Detailing

To get the perfect finishing touch on your firearm components, Eaglemaster’s polishing and detailing services are the perfect choice. These services can be used after coating to create cosmetic finishes for custom or special edition firearms.

If functionality is more your concern, polishing can also produce functional finishes that enhance performance and produce surface Ra values that are difficult to achieve with only machine finishing.
