Product Introduction

 

Shandong Zhongxing Metal supplies industrial garnet abrasive in different particle sizes for metal surface treatment, ship repair, steel structures, pipelines, stone processing and general blasting applications. Garnet provides a clean and efficient abrasive solution for customers who need reliable cutting ability and low dust generation.

Garnet is a natural mineral abrasive widely used for sandblasting, waterjet cutting and surface preparation. It has good hardness, sharp edges and stable cutting performance, making it suitable for removing rust, scale, old paint and surface contaminants.

As a natural non-metallic abrasive, garnet produces lower dust compared with some traditional blasting media and provides a clean surface profile before coating or painting.

Manufacturing Process

 

Garnet abrasive is produced from selected natural garnet mineral. The raw material is mined, washed, crushed, dried, screened and classified into different particle sizes.

During processing, impurities and oversized particles are removed to improve particle consistency and cleanliness. The finished garnet abrasive is prepared for blasting, surface preparation or waterjet-related applications according to customer requirements.

Advantages

Garnet has sharp angular particles, good hardness and relatively low dust generation. It provides efficient cleaning and surface preparation while helping reduce contamination compared with some low-grade blasting media.

As a natural abrasive, garnet offers stable cutting performance, good recyclability in suitable blasting systems and a clean surface profile. It is suitable for customers who need a balance between cutting efficiency, surface cleanliness and operating cost.
