Chromite sand is suitable for steel casting including foundry such as:
Green Sand molding;
Shell molding;
Pep-Set system;
Furan Resin and Alkaline-phenolic Resin;
Core moulding
Lost foam casting
How to Choose grit size?
Generally,the smaller casting need to make, the finer grit size foundry adopted.The following frame shows it for reference:
