Basic information
HONEST HORSE garnet sand is almandite garnet, one of the hardest minerals. We
closely cooperate with the leading waterjet equipment manufacturers to develop
the higher performance and more cost-effective products for the WJ customers. We
remain the garnet leading supplier in China who keep product research,
development, performance and cost-effectiveness.
HONEST HORSE Advantages in Waterjet Cutting
Garnet comes in two basic forms, crushed and alluvial, the later being roughly
similar to sand washed up on riversides. Our garnet for export is produced from
our crystalline almandite garnet deposits. Thank to its sharp edges from
crushing, this kind crushed garnet acts more a sharp cutting tools so that
it is superior to alluvial and have been shown to cut better and faster.
Sharper Edges - Due to our HONEST HORSE garnet sandis crushed
from almandine rock, it acts more a sharp cutting tools and can cut faster
and more efficiently than alluvial garnet.
Faster Cutting - Crushed and selected from hard rock so that HONEST HORSE waterjet
grade garnet produces harder and sharper edges than other waterjet abrasives.
These characteristics enable our garnet more 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 - HONEST HORSE garnet has high garnet purity and very low dust. That
makes the whole cutting course more smoothly.
Choosing the Proper Mesh or Grade
HONEST HORSE offers various grades to match any focusing tube and orifice for
any given cutting applications. Choosing the proper mesh, or grade, for the
operation is very imperative. Different mesh sizes of garnet are designed to
pass through different sized nozzles and choosing the wrong grade could be stop
a waterjet operation completely. If the garnet grade is too large or coarse, the
granules can jam inside a tube and cause a blockage. Too fine an abrasive have a
tendency to “clump” together inside the cutting head and again, have the
potential to clog. Or it may inhibit the flow of garnet in the feed tube and not
consistently enter the venture of water flow between the jewel and nozzle. If
you are not sure which mesh or grade is proper, feel free to contact us and we
would to give you our professional suggestions.

Sand blasting: garnet sand abrasive has features of good hardness, high bulk density, heavy specific weight, good toughness and no free silica. It is widely used in aluminum profile, copper profile, precision molds, and many other fields. And it is used for sandblasting, rust removing and surface treatment in stainless steel, carbon steel,steel structure, aluminum, titanium,galvanized parts,glass, stone, wood, rubber, bridge,shipbuilding,ship repair, etc.
A.Garnet sand blasting abrasive has features of good color, high hardness, long lifetime, self-sharpening,high grinding efficiency, low consumption, good finish and high recycling rate.
B.The sandblasting level of garnet sand is very high. It can penetrate into the holes and uneven parts to completely remove the oxide layer, corrosion, residual salts, burrs and other debris. The sand-blasted surface has no insert, no adverse convex point and pits, no embedded sand,and achieves SA3 blasting level with uniform surface roughness.
C.Garnet sand surface roughness can reach 45-55,50-75 microns. After sandblasting, the surface roughness is moderate which can effectively reinforce the adhesion between coatings and substrate.
D.D.Garnet Sand sandblasting has the features of high blasting speed, low consumption, low cost. Garnet sand is a cost-effective product that can replace quartz sand, copper slag, cinders, corundum, glass beads, etc.
E.After several times washing, garnet sand blasting abrasive has very low dust content and its dust emission is also low, which can keep a good working environment. It is harmless to the environment and humans, which can meet the requirements of occupational health and safety.
F.Garnet sand contains no free silicon, heavy metals and other harmful substances,and the chloride content is less than 50 ppm.It can meet the strictest requirements of industry and military technology.
HONEST HORSE filter sand is a hard rock garnet and is mined from an almandite
garnet deposit. It is ideal for use as the water filtration grained layer in
multi-media systems. HONEST HORSE garnet filter sand provides uniform physical
characters, chemical and microstructure characteristics. There are no free
elements. All oxides are combined chemically as an iron-rich aluminosilicate,
which has the formula: Fe3AlO3(SiO4)3. It is as polishing layer for removal of
suspended solids down to 1μm, which combined with silicate sand and anthracite
filter.
Thanks to it heavy specific weight and stable chemical properties . Our garnet
sand 20-40# can be used as the bottom media of filter bed in water filtration of
chemical industry ,petroleum ,pharmacy ,cleaning drinking water or waste .It is
one of the most cost effective alternatives for water filtration beds to replace
silica sand and gravel in water filtration ,Especially it can be applied in
beneficiation of non-ferrous metals and oil drilling mud weighting agent,
because it resets the filter bed more rapidly after the filter bed is
back-flushed.
