Why Do Most Waterjet Machines Use Garnet Abrasive? Abrasive is one of the most important components in the waterjet cutting process. While pure waterjets (without abrasives) can cut softer materials such as foam and rubber, adding abrasives enhances the cutting power of the jet, allowing it to cut glass, steel, and various other components. …
