Garnet abrasive for Sandblasting and Waterjet Cutting
Description:
Garnet abrasive use the high quality almandine as raw material, produced after machining and water, magnetic, and flotation separation. With excellent performances such as self-sharpening, proper hardness, good toughness, sharp edges, low loss and longer life etc, garnet is widely used in chemical plants, oil & petrochemical industries, for blasting and water jet cutting in the field of construction & maintenance of ship and containers, and building industries etc.
