Mineral Slag is an efficient blasting abrasive manufactured from chrome slag raw materials. The end product is clean, dry, perfectly-graded abrasives for optimum performance.
AGT60 and AGT90 are able to produce a surface profile that varies from 45 – 110 microns.
Expendable abrasive ideal for site and steel blasting applications.

Amorphous quartz by its definition, is non- crystalline form of silica. While crystalline silica has an orderly lattice structure, Amorphous silica is unstructured, consequently, it differs from crystalline Si02 not only in physical terms but also as regards its toxicological properties. In deduction, the silica (Si02) found in our mineral slag belongs to the amorphous silica family, making it non-hazardous.
