What Grit Sizes Correlate With 10X Superoxalloy Media?

Your projects demand specificity, whether it’s for profiling, engraving, etching, or rust removal. 10X superoxalloy grits are unique products, offering many excellent advantages. Understanding our individualized sizing system is critical, which is why it’s important to examine superoxalloy and comparable grit sizes from other sources.

How 10X Superoxalloy Media Compares

When comparing abrasives, traditional materials like garnet and aluminum oxide are often used as reference points to understand grit sizing and performance better. To help you find the appropriate size for your application, we’ve created this chart of superoxalloy and comparable grit sizes, which includes garnet and aluminum oxide materials:

10X Superoxalloy Grit Garnet Equivalent Aluminum Oxide Equivalent Typical Mil profile Ideal use
EpiX-EP 60, 70 60-70 grit 2.0-3.0 mil Precision surface preparation
EpiX-MP 100 70-90 grit 1.5-2.0 mil Fine surface preparation
EpiX LP 120 150-180 grit 0.5-1.5 mil Low-profile applications, precision finishing
KinetiX 40/70 46, 54 46-54 grit 2.0-3.0+ mil General-purpose blasting, standard surface preparation
KinetiX 20/70 24, 30, 36, 30/60 24-46 grit 2.5-4.0+ mil Heavy steel applications
DynamiX 16, 20 12-16 grit 3.5-4.5+ mil Best for heavy-duty industrial work
