Garnet sand # 20/40 30/60 80 mesh waterjet 100# 120# garnet abrasive

Garnet abrasive sand is a andine rock garnet.

It’s mined from a hard rock deposit consisting of extremely aggressive and sharp grains.

The extremely low chloride levels of Rock Garnet reduces the chance of chloride contamination.

Rock Garnet’s unique characteristics improve production rates, reduce abrasive usage, and lower disposal and clean-up costs.

High purity rock garnet provides fast cutting, ideal for removing thin to medium thickness coatings, mill scale, and rust.

Advantage of Rock Garnet

Low Chloride levels

It’s mined from A andine deposit. Rock garnet is extremely low chloride contamination.

Recyclability

The low friability of rock garnet produces lower dust levels and allows it to be recycled up to five times.

Increased Production

Its sub-angular shape, hardness increases the amount of square feet per hour that can be blasted.
