Download PDFGarnet sand is a popular, environmentally friendly abrasive blasting media known for its high hardness, low dust production, and superior surface finishing capabilities. It is a safe and efficient alternative to traditional silica sand, widely used in marine, structural steel, and restoration applications.
Characteristics and Advantages
Garnet media is composed of natural almandine mineral grains, valued for their durability and performance.
- Hardness and Durability: Garnet ranks high on the Mohs scale (7.0 to 8.0), making it an excellent, fast cutting abrasive that fractures less readily than other materials like crushed glass.
- Low Dust: It generates significantly less airborne dust compared to silica and slags, which improves visibility, reduces cleanup time, and enhances workplace safety.
- Safety and Environment: Garnet is non-toxic, inert, and contains less than 1% crystalline silica, substantially reducing health risks associated with traditional sandblasting materials.
- Superior Finish: It produces a uniform, clean surface profile (anchor pattern) virtually free of embedment, which is crucial for optimal coating adhesion and long-lasting finishes.
- Recyclability: Depending on the application and grit size, garnet can be reclaimed and reused multiple times (typically 2 to 3 cycles) in closed-loop systems, making it a cost-effective option in the long run.
