    industrial info icon

    Compare abrasive blasting media hardness to find the best one for your application.

    Abrasive Blasting Media

    Remove paint, coatings, and rust or add texture to surfaces. This media is suitable for use on a wide variety of surface materials.
    Our abrasive blasting materials are sorted from least to most aggressive. The more aggressive the media, the more material it removes from your surface.
    Both particle mesh size and grit measure the size of the abrasive particles. The higher the number, the finer the particles are.
    Garnet Grit
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Contains Annotated, Inset. Abrasive Blasting Media. Garnet Grit.
    An economical choice for grit-style abrasive. It’s not as reusable or abrasive as aluminum oxide grit, so it’s commonly used to clean masonry where it would be difficult to reclaim your media.
    80-140 Particle Mesh Size—Garnet grit with a particle mesh size of 80-140 is commonly used for waterjet cutting metal because it won’t clog the jet nozzles.
    Low Reusability—Effective for a handful of cycles under normal blasting conditions.
