Why 16 Mesh Garnet for Industrial Blasting
With a nominal particle size of 16 mesh, this garnet abrasive strikes an effective balance between aggressive stock removal and a controlled anchor profile. It strips heavy rust, mill scale, and tough coatings efficiently, while its angular fracture mechanics continuously expose fresh cutting edges. This reduces dust generation compared to softer or rounder media and helps maintain a consistent surface finish across the workpiece.
Typical Applications
- Structural steel preparation: Cleaning beams, columns, and fabrications before painting or galvanizing.
- Tank and vessel maintenance: Removing corrosion and old linings from storage tanks, pressure vessels, and silos.
- Pipeline coating removal: Stripping FBE, coal tar, and other pipeline coatings in the field or in a shop.
- Shipyard and marine work: Hull blasting, deck preparation, and offshore platform maintenance.
- Foundry and casting cleaning: Descaling and surface finishing of cast iron and steel components.
