Garnet blasting materials
Garnet is a mineral abrasive which is irregularly shaped with polished edges. For a mineral abrasive, garnet sand is relatively
hard with a high bulk density, which accomplishes a fast cleaning and cutting rate.
Our garnet blasting materials can be reused several times. Some common applications are:
• Waterjet cutting, mainly garnet 80 mesh and garnet 120 mesh
• Removal of old coating layers and rust, mainly garnet 30-60
• Facade cleaning and removal of graffiti
• Car restauration and repair
• Blasting wood
• Sweep blast cleaning (galvanized) work pieces
