Red Garnet Sand Size suggestion
Red garnet sand has different sizes for customers’ needs.
- Red garnet sand 60 Mesh brings the most powerful cutting performance, and speed used when cutting speed is more important than edge quality, such as cutting thick stainless steel, stone, or marble.
- Red garnet sand 80 Mesh offers fast cutting speed and good edge quality. Use to cut metals, composites, ceramics, and glass.
- Red garnet sand 120 Mesh offers perfect edge quality and cutting speed. Used for net shape cutting applications to eliminate secondary finishing. Use to cut steel, aluminum, glass, and other brittle materials.
