Silicon Carbide is the highest-quality abrasive in our line - stays sharper and lasts longer than any other abrasive. This abrasive is the favorite for glass etching and heavy automotive parts cleaning due to its high quality and ability to be recycled over and over again.
Grit Size 80, gray color.
(NOTE: Due to the fast cutting action of this abrasive, nozzles, pickup tube, power head, vac bag/filter, vac motor, and other cabinet components may wear rapidly.)
TECH TIP: When using a Skat Blast® Cabinet, a variety of dry abrasives can be used. Generally, the higher the grit number, the finer the abrasive. The finer the abrasive, the smoother the finish. Coarse-grit abrasives cut fast, but the finish isn't as smooth as fine-grit abrasives. Always change abrasive on a regular basis.
We stock a variety of long-wearing abrasives, each formulated to obtain a desired finish. Experiment with each to discover which works best for your application, or call our tech line: 330-533-3384, Ext. 22.
