Full title and description
Preparation of steel substrates before application of paints and related products — Specifications for non-metallic blast-cleaning abrasives — Part 10: Almandite garnet. Specifies the requirements for almandite (almandite) garnet supplied for blast‑cleaning, including designation, sampling, required properties and information to be supplied by the manufacturer.
Abstract
ISO 11126-10:2017 defines the required characteristics of almandite garnet abrasives in the new (unused) condition when supplied for blast‑cleaning operations. It specifies ranges or limits for particle‑size distribution, apparent density, Mohs hardness, moisture content, conductivity of aqueous extract and water‑soluble chlorides, plus requirements for marking and manufacturer information. Test methods are given in the ISO 11127 series; surface‑preparation techniques are referenced in ISO 8504‑2. The 2017 edition has since been withdrawn and superseded by a 2025 edition.

Scope
Applies to almandite garnet supplied for blast‑cleaning of steel substrates prior to application of paints and related products. Specifies the parameters that the abrasive must meet in the new/unused condition (particle sizes, apparent density, hardness, moisture, conductivity of aqueous extract, water‑soluble chlorides), plus rules for designation, sampling, identification/marking and information the supplier must provide. Does not apply to abrasives during or after use.
Key topics and requirements
- Designation and marking of almandite garnet abrasives for supply.
- Particle‑size distribution ranges for common grit grades used in blast‑cleaning.
- Apparent (loose) density requirements.
- Minimum Mohs hardness (abrasive effectiveness and durability).
- Limits on moisture content to avoid performance and handling issues.
- Limits for conductivity of aqueous extract and for water‑soluble chlorides (contamination control to reduce corrosion risk).
- Sampling procedures and reference to test methods in the ISO 11127 series.
- Information to be supplied by manufacturer/supplier (product identification, safety/handling notes, typical properties).
Typical use and users
Used by coating specifiers, surface‑preparation engineers, corrosion control professionals, bridge/steel‑structure fabricators, blast‑cleaning/abrasive suppliers, quality control and testing laboratories, paint manufacturers and inspection bodies to specify, source and verify almandite garnet suitable for surface preparation prior to coating.

FAQ
Q: What is this standard?
A: ISO 11126-10:2017 is the international specification for almandite (almandin) garnet abrasives supplied for blast‑cleaning of steel prior to coating. It defines the required properties, designation and supplier information for the abrasive in its new/unused condition.
Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers product designation, sampling and the required physical and chemical characteristics (particle‑size ranges, apparent density, Mohs hardness, moisture, conductivity of an aqueous extract, water‑soluble chlorides), plus marking and information to be provided by the manufacturer. It does not cover abrasives during or after use.
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Coating and corrosion engineers, specifiers, blast‑cleaning contractors, abrasive suppliers, QA/QC laboratories, steel fabricators and inspection authorities use this standard to select and verify garnet abrasives for coating preparation.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
A: The 2017 edition (published 6 November 2017) has been withdrawn and superseded by a later edition published in 2025 (ISO 11126-10:2025, published 11 November 2025). Users should refer to the 2025 edition for the current requirements.
Q: Is it part of a series?
A: Yes — it is Part 10 of the ISO 11126 series (specifications for non‑metallic blast‑cleaning abrasives). It is linked with the ISO 11127 series (test methods) and with related surface‑preparation standards such as ISO 8504‑2 and the ISO 12944 corrosion‑protection series.
Q: What are the key keywords?
