Black Silicon Carbide F16 is a coarse abrasive with high hardness, excellent wear resistance, and outstanding cutting performance. It delivers fast grinding efficiency while maintaining consistent particle shape, making it ideal for bonded abrasives, blasting media, and refractory applications.

Applications:

  • Grinding wheels
  • Abrasive blasting
  • Metal surface cleaning
  • Stone processing
  • Refractory products

Description

Black Silicon Carbide #16 Grit is a coarse-grade silicon carbide abrasive material manufactured from high-purity petroleum coke and silica sand through high-temperature electric furnace smelting, crushing, and precise sizing processes.

With excellent hardness, sharp cutting edges, and outstanding abrasive performance, Black Silicon Carbide #16 Grit provides aggressive cutting action and efficient material removal. Its coarse particle size makes it well suited for heavy-duty surface preparation, abrasive blasting, grinding, and applications requiring fast cutting performance.

Compared with finer silicon carbide grits, #16 Black Silicon Carbide Grit offers high impact strength and excellent stock removal capability while providing slightly more controlled cutting than #14 grit. This makes it an ideal abrasive for demanding industrial applications such as rust removal, surface cleaning, refractory processing, rough grinding, and metal surface preparation.
