Garnet can be used on site as an expendable or is suitable for recycling units such as blast rooms and cabinets. It breaks down quicker than aluminium oxide or chilled iron when recycled.
The 120 and 80 mesh grades are generally used for waterjet cutting applications
Blasting with Garnet is less dusty then other abrasives.
