The contribution focuses on the research into abrasive materials and possibilities of adjustment of their properties in order to increase the
efficiency of the processes of cutting and machining with abrasive waterjets. Cutting ability of commonly available garnet concentrates
and non-traditional products which are starting to access to the Czech market were tested and compared. In addition, entirely new garnet
products which are not commercially available yet, recycled abrasives, abrasives with various sizes of grains and heat-affected abrasives or
abrasives coated with a thin plastic layer were studied.
