Specifications

About Almandine Garnet

The Abrasive Garnet produced by KePA company is composed of natural almandine garnet and is recognized as one of the best types of garnet minerals in the abrasive industry.

This product serves as an effective and economical alternative to copper slag, steel minerals, and shot. Its physical and chemical uniformity ensures superior performance.

Some grades demonstrate outstanding performance in sandblasting applications across the industries like oil and petrochemical industry, maintenance, refineries, oil wells, shipbuilding and repair, workshops for sanding, bridges, railway tanks, and new constructions. Other grades are suitable for water jet cutting machines for industrial purposes.

The uniformity in size and shape of the grains of our product provides excellent performance to users. Applications include cutting carbon steel, stainless steel, marble, ceramics, and road painting. Additionally, the garnet produced by this company is utilized in water treatment and filtration, as well as for the production of abrasive papers.

application

Garnet has many applications and is mainly used as an abrasive in abrasive blasting & water jet cutting and as a adsorbent in water filtration. It is also used in the preparation of non-skid tracks, steps, sports Ground Surface etc.

It is also used as abrasive media in coated abrasives like Grinding Wheels and belts that are used in cleaning/polishing various surfaces like glass, ceramics, wood & metals.

 

GARNET BLASTING ABRASIVES

Industrial abrasive Garnet sand for sand blasting features

  1. Good Surface Cleaning Result: Can probe into the pores and uneven skin clean; thoroughly remove scale, rust,

soluble salt and other contaminants. Sandblasting the surface treated without insert, without unfavorable convex pointed and potholes easily get clear SA3 highest level, the surface roughness can reach 30-80 microns, achieve better coating adhesion, and longer service life.

  1. Lowest use cost: Garnet sandblasting abrasive, 7.5 to 8.0 hardness, density 4.2 g/cm3, sharp edges, the cutting effect is excellent, sandblasting area is large, in unit time per unit area of sand consumption, less sand blasting cost is low. More benefit from the Garnet sandblasting abrasive excellent toughness and low brittleness, low breakage rate in the process of sandblasting, depending on the applications of different recycled 5-10 times, further reduce the cost of the customer.
  1. Good working environment: Garnet abrasive blasting, the production process after 6 times washing, dust content is very low, and because the ratio of Garnet abrasive blasting material, settlement rate, and therefore less dust sandblasting process, excellent working environment.

 

  1. Health, safety, environmental protection: Garnet sandblasting abrasive, excluding free silicon, heavy metals and other harmful ingredients, no radiation, no health or environmental risks.
  1. Usage: As natural nonmetallic abrasive, almost all the surface of the material can be used for pretreatment, especially suitable for carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, galvanized parts, copper, alloy, glass, stone, wood, rubber-sandblasting processing.

GARNET FOR WATER JET CUTTING

  1. Garnet for Water Jet Cutting: Grade #80 / # 120 are perfectly suitable for the Waterjet cutting Media in the Industrial purpose. Uniformity in grain size & shape give excellent performance for the users. It is perfectly suitable for the Carbon, Steel, Stainless Steel, Marble, Ceramics and Road Painting applications.

    Advantages in Waterjet Cutting


    Garnet comes in two basic forms:

    • Crushed
    • Alluvial

    The latter being roughly similar to sand washed up on riversides. Our Garnet for export is produced from our crystalline almandine Garnet deposits. Thanks to its sharp edges from crushing, this kind crushed Garnet acts more like a sharp cutting tools so that it is superior to alluvial and have been shown to cut better and faster.

    Sharper Edges -since our Silicon is crushed from almandine rock, it acts more like a sharp cutting tool and can cut faster and more efficiently than alluvial Garnet.

    Faster Cutting – Crushed and selected from hard rock, Silicon waterjet grade Garnet produces harder and sharper edges than other waterjet abrasives. These characteristics enable our Garnet more like a hard and sharp cutting tool to finish a faster cutting.

    Better Edge quality – According to the cutting material and edge quality requirement, there are various special and proper waterjet grades recommended that enable a better edge quality.

    Less Dusty – Silicon Garnet has high Garnet purity and very low dust. That makes the entire cutting course more smoothly.

GARNET WATER FILTERATION

  1. Garnet is possibly the most cost effective alternative for water filtration beds

    as it resets the filter bed more rapidly

     after the bed is backflushed.Moreover, it is also effective for the elimination of heavy minerals.

    Furthermore it has the benefit of 

    being chemically inert, recycle in

    resulting in longer production to 

    Water treatment medium.
