Barton HPX™ Waterjet Abrasives. Unsurpassed Performance, Superior Value. Barton HPX high-performance abrasives set the industry standard for performance and cost-effective waterjet cutting.
Sharper Edges
Mined from Barton’s North American Operations, HPX grains have a unique structure that produces sharp angular crystals. These unusual traits enable Barton HPX to outperform all other waterjet abrasives.
Faster Cutting
Because of these sharper,more angular edges, Barton HPX cuts faster than other waterjet abrasives.
Better Edge Quality
Barton HPX waterjet abrasives produce a betteredge quality and can be used in demanding
applications where other waterjet abrasives fall short.
Cleaner Environment (Less Dust)
Barton HPX waterjet abrasives are the cleanest cutting media available.This translates to less downtime due to clogged jets or erratic abrasive feed and therefore a more cost-efficient operation.
