Our garnet abrasive is manufactured and marketed according to ISO 9001 requirements. Our customers are very pleased with the performance of waterjet abrasive cutting applications and sandblasting abrasive applications.
Benefits of Garnet Abrasive
- garnet is mined in its natural, angular form, making it one of the most sought-after abrasives in the business.
- Environmentally and health-safe (contains no heavy metals)
- Reduce air emissions greatly with garnet abrasive
- Low dusting – due to its highly durable crystalline structure.
- Mohs hardness of 7.5, Specific Gravity of 4.0
- Virtually silica free (less than <0.5%)
- Low Chlorides
- White metal finish without embedment
- With proper metering, 70% less abrasive is used than slag & cuts 30-40% faster than slag
- Unique grain-hardness/toughness reduces particle breakdown
- Bulk density of 150 lbs/ft3 vs. 110 lbs. for sand & slag abrasives
- Recycles 2-3 times
- Lower abrasive disposal cost/lower containment cost
