Garnet Sand for Sandblasting & Waterjet Cutting

Description

Application:

Sandblasting — Garnet is a new kind of efficient, economic and environment-friendly abrasive for surface treatment and blasting. It has outstanding performance including high productivity, low consumption, superior surface quality and cost effective, which make it be very popular Among international abrasive blasting industry.

Water jet cutting – Garnet is the most optimal and economical media for high-pressure water jet cutting due to its unique physical properties of high hardness, moderate cutting ability, no free silica etc. It’s perfectly available for the applications including: All metals/Composite/Ceramics/Granite/Steel/Glass/Rubber/Wood etc.

Filtering Media – Garnet is a natural hard and high desity filter materials used in multi-media water filtration systerms. Garnet is recommended as a support bed for other materials such as sand.
