GARNET
GARNET - Hardness: 7.5; Size Range - 5 sizes from 16 to 100 grit; Shape: Blocky particles. This natural mined material is fast cleaning and is an excellent alternative to sand and coal slag (black beauty). It is not as effective as Aluminum Oxide on difficult applications. Garnet is used widely in waterjet cutting and has a higher Iron content than Alox while sizing is on the "loose" side. Sold usually in bulk containers, but bags are available.
