    Which mesh size is right for you?

    GMA ExcelCut is available in three mesh sizes: 50, 80, and 120. Coarser grades are best for cutting thick or hard materials or in applications that require high precision. Finer grades are ideal for brittle materials like ceramics and glass and eliminate the need for secondary finishing.

    Engineered blends

    Quality badge

    Consistent quality

    Our high standards in processing and quality control ensures each batch contains consistently sized grains of the highest quality almandine garnet. A bag of GMA Garnet™ contains as much as 98% pure garnet. Uncontaminated garnet enables faster cutting and cleaner cuts.

    Productivity

    Superior performance

    GMA’s waterjet abrasives’ unique grain hardness, density, and toughness ensure the highest production rates and the perfect edge quality with the first cut. Our waterjet garnet can cut virtually any material with a thickness of up to 24 inches.

    Caliper

    No oversized grains

    GMA Garnet™ has no dust particles or fine grains that hinder garnet flow or oversized grains that block focusing tubes. This means you can count on uninterrupted, efficient cutting from your equipment.

    Costs

    Reduced consumption

    Our unique garnet provides the perfect balance between cutting speed and edge quality, requiring less garnet to make the cut while achieving the best edge quality. This results in direct cost savings and a longer operating life for your waterjet equipment.

    Sustainability

    Disposal and recycling

    GMA has invested heavily in innovative ways to reduce landfill and reprocess garnet, with an expanding number of reprocessing facilities opening around the world.
