How Waterjet
Cutting Works

1
High-Pressure Water Generation

Water is pressurized up to 87,000 PSI by an intensifier pump and forced through a tiny orifice, creating an ultra-high velocity jet stream.

2
Abrasive Mixing (for hard materials)

Garnet abrasive is introduced to the jet stream in a mixing chamber, creating an abrasive slurry capable of cutting steel, stone, and titanium.

3
CNC-Controlled Cutting

Our 5-axis CNC heads follow programmed paths from DXF/DWG/STEP files, cutting complex 2D and 3D profiles with repeatability.

4
Clean, Finished Parts

No heat-affected zone. No burrs. No thermal distortion. Parts often require zero secondary machining — saving you time and cost.

Built From
One Machine Up

Houston Water Jet started in 2000 with a single 6' × 12' machine and one mission — deliver precise, quality waterjet cutting to Houston's industrial community. What began as a one-person operation has grown into a five-machine, ISO-certified facility serving oil & gas, aerospace, gasket, and nontraditional material customers across the Gulf Coast.

2000
Houston Water Jet founded with one 6' × 12' CNC waterjet machine and one employee.
2007
HWJ opens in its own facility and adds a second machine — a 6' × 24' waterjet for larger capacity.
2011
5-axis machine capability added, expanding to four total machines and enabling complex 3D cutting.
2013
Acquired by BLP Holdings, LLC. Joined forces with Metal Cutting Specialists at 7208 Gessner Road.
Today
Five CNC machines, table sizes to 13' × 43', and now part of The Ryerson Family of Companies.
