Garnet sand

Garnet sand is a good abrasive which is used for water filtration and as a wood finisher for furniture pieces. As an abrasive, garnet sand can be divided into two categories: blasting grade and water jet grade. Garnet sand is crushed into finer grains and used for sand blasting. The larger grains after being crushed are used for faster work while smaller grains can be used for finer finishes. Garnet sand is brittle and can fracture easily – which is the reason why different types of sand are produced.

Garnet sand is also known as water jet cutting sand. It is made from calcium-aluminium silicate and is normally used as a replacement for silica sand in sand blasting operations. There are various types of sandblasting media including mineral abrasives like aluminium oxide and coal slag. Garnet sand is the most popular sandblasting type, but since these types create a significant amount of dust, they are banned in many countries like Germany and Portugal to use as a blasting grit.
