Garnet Abrasive Mesh 80, 25kgs, 3 bags

Although still relatively unknown in Spain, garnet sands offer significant advantages for blast cleaning, pickling, and surface de-oxidation compared to more traditional methods such as silica sand or metallic slag. Non-siliceous abrasives are derived from remnants of the original material. a) If the original material is of poor quality, the resulting slag is also inferior and deteriorates faster, requiring larger quantities of material and incurring associated costs. Garnet is precisely the same material from which it is derived. High density. a) Reduced dust levels due to its density and washing during processing. Used material residues, owing to their weight, settle rapidly on the ground. This allows for better operator visibility and minimises disturbance to the environment, whether to other operators working nearby or during blasting operations in residential areas where there is a risk of nuisance to neighbours. b) Equal impact force is achieved with less material. More grains per kilogram result in more impacts and greater abrasive power. Being heavier and more resistant than other abrasives, the high volume of particles transfers kinetic energy more effectively to the projected surface. c) In the marine industry, garnet blasting delivers high performance and achieves a steel preparation grade of Sa 3. d) Its high density and small particle size imply the need to use less material compared to lighter abrasives with larger particles.
