Due to the density of K-Mag (K-Mag Granular – 94 lb/ft.3, K-Mag Premium – 83 lb/ft.3 to 67 lb/ft.3 for muriate of potash), it is somewhat abrasive to equipment used for high speed application when it is the only material being applied. However, when K-Mag is blended or mixed with other fertilizer materials, the abrasiveness is minimized.
