Garnet Sand

Garnet is a natural, crystalline mineral known for its hardness, durability, and abrasive properties. It is used in various industrial applications due to its ability to provide effective cutting and cleaning performance. Garnet is typically found in various forms, including almandine, pyrope, and spessartine, each with unique properties suited for different uses. It is a popular choice for sandblasting, waterjet cutting, and as a filtration media.

  • Product Category: Abrasive & Material
  • Key Features:
  • High Hardness: Garnet has a hardness of approximately 7.5 on the Mohs scale, making it effective for abrasive applications and durable in high-wear environments.
  • Sharp Edges: The angular, sharp-edged particles of garnet provide aggressive cutting and cleaning action, ideal for sandblasting and abrasive processes.
  • Low Dust Generation: Produces minimal dust during use, contributing to a cleaner work environment and reducing health risks.
  • Chemical Resistance: Resistant to most acids and bases, making it suitable for use in aggressive chemical environments.
  • Reusability: Garnet can be reused multiple times before replacement, making it a cost-effective abrasive option.
Applications:

Sandblasting: Used as an abrasive blasting media for cleaning, deburring, and surface preparation of metal, wood, and glass surfaces.

Waterjet Cutting: Employed as an abrasive in waterjet cutting processes to achieve precise and clean cuts in various materials, including metals and stone.

Filtration Media: Applied in water filtration systems to remove impurities and particulates from water due to its high density and durability.

Construction: Utilized in construction and demolition for surface preparation and material removal.
