- Applications:
1.)Free grinding and polishing for glass,crystal,jade and other product.
2.)Resin abrasives-as replacement of 20-40% BFA for cutting duscs
3.)Coated abrasives-for sandpaper and sponges
4.)Sand blasting: Garnet is prefer to used for blast cleaning for preparation before painting (Sand Blasting), Industrial Parts cleaning, concrete, aluminum, automotive glass, textiles, corrugated boxboard, plastics laminates, aerospace composites, etc.,
5.)Water Jet cutting: Garnet is the most commonly used abrasive material until now. Users find that garnet to be the best for it in terms of cost, cut speed, mixing tube life, and health hazards. 6.)Water Filtration: Garnet is a naturally hard and high density filter material used in multi–media water filtration systems. Garnet is recommended as a support bed for other materials such as sand.
7.)Used for stone washing of denim fabrics, providing only fading of dye but not damaging the stitching. Used in Industrial Flooring providing better grip.
8.)Surface preparation: Garnet is widely used for polishing glass faceplates of televisions, computer monitors and optical glasses For artistic engraving or matting surfaces such as glass, marble, granite, etc
