*Garnet*
Product / Grade Generic Size	Sandblast Applications
Garnet #16 Extra Coarse	Used to remove the thickest and most adherent coatings (60+ mils) and rust in maintenance applications in for ship repair, petro-chemical and industrial painting contracting Typically produces a 4+ mil profile on steel surfaces
Garnet #36 Coarse	Used to remove thick coatings (20-60 mils) and rust in maintenance applications or where a larger surface profile is required Typically produces a 3-4 mil profile on steel surfaces
Garnet 30x40 Mesh Intermediate	Used to remove heavier coatings (Up to 40 mils) and rust while controlling profile Typically produces a 2.5-3 mil profile on steel surfaces
Garnet 30x60 Mesh Medium	"Workhorse" grade used for general purpose abrasive blasting, new steel, maintenance work on coatings up to 20 mils and denim blasting Common applications include shipbuilding, heavy equipment repair, petro-chemical, denim blasting, powder coating and blast rooms Typically produces a 2-3 mil profile on steel surfaces
Garnet 80 Mesh Fine	Used on aluminum and other sensitive substrates Common applications include powder coating and surface preparation of aluminum surfaces Typically produces a 1.5 - 2.0 mil profile on steel surfaces
Garnet 100 Mesh Extra Fine	Used on very sensitive surfaces or in applications where a very shallow surface profile is desired Typically produces a 1.0 - 1.5 mil profile on steel surfaces Available by special order only

*Glass Bead*
This general purpose blast media is recommended for applications where you want to remove debris without damaging the item's surface. Glass bead media works well on soft metals like aluminum and brass as well as plastic. Works with a blasting gun or in a blast cabinet. General purpose abrasive/blast media Perfect for metal and plastic surfaces Non-damaging to soft metals like aluminum and brass Contains no free silica Recycles many times
Packaging - Standard package is 50 lb. paper bags, 40 bags per pallet.

*Aluminum Oxide*
This angular, durable blasting abrasive can be recycled many times. It is a widely used abrasive grain in sand blast finishing and surface preparation because of its cost, longevity and hardness. Harder than other commonly used blasting materials, aluminum oxide penetrates and cuts even the hardest metals. Approximately 50% lighter than metallic media, aluminum oxide has twice the particles per pound. The fast-cutting action minimizes damage to thin materials by eliminating surface stresses caused by heavier, slower cutting media. Uses and benefits: Cleaning engine heads Cleaning turbine blades in the aircraft industry Monument lettering and inscription Cleaning and preparing metal parts for metalizing, plating and welding White Aluminum Oxide is a 99.5% ultra-pure grade of blasting media. White Aluminum Oxide is increasingly being used in critical, high performance processes such as microdermabrasion. White Aluminum Oxide is also required where contamination from other metal oxides must be kept to a minimum.
Packaging - Standard package is 50 lb. container.
