Garnet sand Garnet is cubic system crystal, without cleavage, so after sandblasting, it is easy to form approximate cube particles with edges and corners. Good sandblasting effect can make the metal surface’s rust, oxide, coatings and pollutants removed thoroughly.
1. Garnet is characterized by high specific gravity, large bulk density, reasonable particle size distribution, hardness, durability and compactness.
2, garnet is a natural mineral, high hardness, acid and alkali resistance, in the processing, filtration and washing process can meet the stringent requirements of corrosion resistance, wear rate and broken rate is low, can greatly extend the service life of the filtration system.
3. The polyhedral characteristics of garnet can ensure that there are more gaps between different particles, which can play a better filtering effect than the ordinary round or oval particles of other filter materials.

1) Sand blasting
Garnet abrasive’s hardness is moderate and have high bulk density. It have free silica and good toughness .It is the ideal “environmentally friendly” sand blasting materials
2) Free grinding
The Grinding grade garnet abrasive is applied to the picture tube, optical glass, monocrystalline silicon, lenses, watches and clocks, glass, crystal glass, jade and other fields of free grinding. It is widely used in domestic advanced abrasive materials.
3) Resin grinder
Garnet abrasive with the right color, good hardness, toughness, and be suitable for the type of particle cross-section and blade retention. It can be used as a substitute for 20%-30% filler corundum resin grinding tool.
4) Coated abrasives
Garnet abrasive are materials production of paper, gauze and other manufacturers of raw materials production
5) Functional filler
The garnet will be used mainly to automobile brake parts, special tires, special building products, etc., and can be used to the construction of the highway pavement, the runway, the wharf, the parking lot, the industrial floor, the sports field, etc.;
6)Filter media
Filter media Is a new application field of garnet, the underlying medium using granular garnet filtrating bed, can clean drinking water and waste water. It is a new type of filter material , especially suitable for non-ferrous metal processing, oil drilling mud weighting agent.
7)Water jet cutting
Based on garnet abrasive cutting medium, rely on high pressure water jet cutting in basic and apply in oil (gas) cutting pipe, steel etc. It is a new type, environmental protection, safe way to cut.
