Product Description

Garnet Abrasive Sand

Welcome to Lianyungang Chemsize International Trading Co., Ltd.

Product Description: Garnet Abrasive Sand

Garnet abrasive sand is a naturally occurring silicate mineral deposit. The harder species of abrasive garnet, such as almandine, are utilized for abrasive purposes due to their hardness on the Mohs scale of about 7 to 7.5. This hardness provides the perfect balance between cutting speed and superior edge quality.

Garnet sand is meticulously washed, processed, and screened to achieve the necessary abrasive grade for various industrial applications, including water jet cutting, sand blasting, and shot blasting.

What Is Garnet?

Garnet is a versatile sandblasting mineral derived from Almandite or Andradite deposits. It is ideal for both wet and dry sandblasting applications, offering a clean and fast abrasive solution.

Benefits:

• High hardness (Mohs Hardness 7 to 8)


• Cost-effective and long-lasting


• Environmentally friendly with low dusting


• Safe and non-toxic with low free silica levels


• Excellent for coating prep and surface prep

Color:

Pink, Red/Brown, Grey/Brown

Excellent For:

• Tanks and confined spaces


• Dry docks, Bridges, Shipyards


• Aluminum and Fiberglass surfaces


• Hangar decks


• Powdercoating, denim blasting


• Industrial Painting

Waterjet Garnet:

We offer Galaxy Garnet and Andradite Garnet for waterjet use. Galaxy Garnet is a premium option, while Andradite Garnet is a cost-effective alternative with slightly different properties.

Key features of Andradite Garnet:

• Cleaned and re-screened to Waterjet Specs


• Lower density and hardness rating


• Contains trace mineral Wollastonite


• Available in 20/40, 30/60, and 80X grit

For regular sandblasting applications, the coarser grades are recommended for less dust and efficient processing.
