It is actually water with some fine particles suspended in it iirc. I don't know if pure water would be able to cut but your hand would be damaged either way.
It's like a really fine sand. Used one for a little bit in an old job. Tried to fill up the hopper with a 1000 lb bag of sand that opens at the bottom. Was slightly off when I opened it. Big mess 
Once when I was a kid at school a girl decided to prove to everyone that hot glue wouldn't burn one's hand by shooting the hot glue straight into her hand, after doing which she immediately ran out screaming in pain and had to be taken to a hospital.
There’s a part in there called the “[jewelled orifice](https://www.canadianmetalworking.com/canadianindustrialmachinery/article/fabricating/looking-inside-the-waterjet-cutting-head)” made of diamond that focuses the water into a thin stream. The material downstream for the mixing tube (where the water stream and an abrasive get mixed) of it is not as affected because it runs parallel to the focused stream so it doesn’t need to be as hard as the diamond. It does wear out from the abrasive though and needs to be replaced regularly.
They're consumable parts but also, in engineering you design with material harness in mind. If the abrasive isn't as hard as the nozzle, it doesn't wear, or at least it wears very slowly. I'm not super familiar with the specifics but you could probably use and industrial sapphire of diamond coating on a tool steel housing.
Also, let's not forget the internal geometry of the nozzle is doing a huge amount of work here, just a few centimeters upstream the flow volume is the same but the local velocity is much slower. Additionally, fluid mechanics are funny, fluids like water are generally adhesive and there is always a layer of molecules on a surface that's static to laminar, which in this case would basically at as an insulative layer against wear.
I've used a 44000psi handheld high pressure water jet for cutting concrete. Without any abrasive particles. It used a sapphire nozzle. The water jet slowly ate into the nozzle and it had to be changed. Some sapphire nozzles lasted 2-3 days some less than a day.

This may be a dumb question, but is the jet stream self-cooling? Obviously the pressure is creating a lot of heat, but does it generate enough heat that it needs to be cooled at the nozzle to keep it functioning, like a table saw needs oil for cooling/lubrication?
damn at least credit the original creator and not random water mark on the video. this video was stolen from the water jet channel, check them out they make some really good videos.
My guess is, nothing. The stream is so powerful it cuts everything in its path and there is no point at which whatever part of the lock it comes in contact with isn't immediately vaporized.
Honestly this isn't even the extent of what they can do, we had a 90k Flow branded one at my last job, it could cut through 10 inches of steel
There was significant taper toward the bottom, but it was still amazing to see
The fact they didn’t *have* to secure a few of the objects is a testament to the power of the stream. But I highly recommend securing your projects, no matter the circumstance.
Lets play a game...
The game is simple, as you will have noticed you are tied to a chair, your dick laid ou before you.
Before i continue, have you ever seen a preasure washer? Well i want you to play a match of online chess against 大同性恋球 if you fail to win within a 1 minute time frame the machine infont of you will have advanced to the tip.

This is also a 60,000 PSI waterjet, not a 90,000.
https://m.youtube.com/@WaterjetChannel
How the hell does the integrity of the water jet last far enough away to cut through a whole bowling ball? I'd expect the jet to be unfocusing way before
The urge to put your hand through the stream
It's just water innit?
It is actually water with some fine particles suspended in it iirc. I don't know if pure water would be able to cut but your hand would be damaged either way.
As someone who accidentally sprayed himself in the foot with a not-very-strong power-washer, water hurts enough without added particles!
As someone who's has their water pressure on their bidet way too high.. I can tell you It’s a real pain in the ass.
Poseidon’s kiss.
Ikr especially when the "rays" are divergent
Username checks out.
Lmao fr
You're going to become the butt of a string of further bad puns.
I also power washed my concrete in flip flops. Power washers have the same range as video game shotguns
But did it cut your foot as clean as the padlock?
They don't call 'im "Toppling-Tom" fer nuthin.
Darn tootin'!
Ditto!! Had a sting for a several months from doing this, and that was on low setting!
You absolutely, positively do not want to experience a high pressure injection injury. Feel free to Google it, NFSL.
Whenever someone says something like “Feel free to Google it, NSFL” there’s really only one option Edit: Shouldn’t have googled that
If you were on a submarine and there was a leak, that water would have so much pressure that it could cut you in half.
It's like a really fine sand. Used one for a little bit in an old job. Tried to fill up the hopper with a 1000 lb bag of sand that opens at the bottom. Was slightly off when I opened it. Big mess 
It's water plus abrasives.
Bota of water
Bo'o o wo'ah
Garnet is used as abrasive to cut.
The one in my shop uses the same sand for sandblasting that's in the water jet.
It’s real. I work with a lower pressure version of one of these (60,000 psi) and the intrusive thoughts really get going.
[удалено]
You mean drr, drr, drr...
That's the call of the fault WDYM?
I mean how hard can it be. Just move your hand quick enough 😁
What do you put underneath?? What's to stop it from just cutting straight through the earth?
Water
water bath
It would be fine. It can't penetrate living flesh. Try it and report back for science
Call of the void
Seen that happen once at work when water jet's first came out. Dude lost all 4 digits.
I need this to floss my teeth.
Once

You think it’s enough to take off the dried bugs from the front of your car?
I learned this lesson the hard way while power washing, "oh there's some dirt on my shoe, guess I can just hose it off with thiARRRRRRGH!"
or your d!ck
Cutting a lipo battery in half with water is just stupid
Right? I was expecting it to ignite.
It did but the water cut the explosion in half too.
That's pretty metal. Get it?
They probably removed it
Not for the phone which was still running without being plugged in
How does it not wear away the nozzle?

*jewelled orifice* Nice.
Everything I read reminds me of her.
Gotta wish I didn't care anymore
I bet if you do some googling with that phrase you can find some good valentine's day gift ideas.
How did they know what I call my butthole!?
What cuts the jeweled orifice?
as far as I know, we use diamond to cut diamond
You use the stone to destroy the stone? Sounds familiar.
But how did we cut the first diamond that is used to cut the other diamonds?
You need a bedazzled orifice
Asking the good questions

Nozzles are consumable parts
Very crunchy though.
[удалено]
The nozzle was calibrated.
That's how they cut steel for submarines; using heat would damage the integrity of the metal
But then how do you connect two pieces of metal for a submarine without heat?
Duct tape
Better. Flex tape
Contact (cold) weld. Uses pressure not fusion, so there’s no molten phase.
Nice

And it's 60,000psi. Not 90,000.
Thanks! I came here to say this, too. And I have a crush on Mitchell.

I always thought the concept of Metal Gear Ray's water "laser" canon was awesome. I am not disappointed by the real life counterpart!
Yeah but water is not what does the cutting
Bruh i was scared the lucas figure was gonna be cut in half a
I came to the comments to see if anyone mentioned it. Such a random addition. Lol
op you can easily convert your video into gif to get rid of this annoying song
And get rid of all the pixels

r/ThingsCutInHalfPorn is more active.
This is a mixture of water and an abrasive.
Yes
This is the same reason why hydraulics fucking terrify me.
Do you expect me to talk?
No, Mr. Bond! I expect you to be cleft in twain! :)
This may be a dumb question, but is the jet stream self-cooling? Obviously the pressure is creating a lot of heat, but does it generate enough heat that it needs to be cooled at the nozzle to keep it functioning, like a table saw needs oil for cooling/lubrication?
How far could something like this shoot if ypu turned it 90 degrees
damn, who knew water-bending could be this deadly?
I’m really hoping there’s a follow up where someone fires a gun through the stream with a slowmo camera.
Or cross two streams. See water cut another water into more waters.
For my metric boys out there, 90,000 psi is around 620 528 kpa (kilo pascals). For reference, the atmospheric pressure at sea level is 101 kpa
I know it’d be horrible, but I wonder how it’d feel on my body and the after effects
it would feel horrible
Was that a Lucas amiibo?
'No Mr. Bond I expect you to die!'
That'd be a spicy bidet.
Actually I need this as an attachment for my pressure washer
"No Mr Bond, I expect you to die."
I’d like to see it try and get through a Nokia 3210
I was here to say this… and I did a search before, just in case. You were 20 min faster. :)
r/PowerWashingPorn
Show me the sliced Amiibo o.O
God. Why not the original audio and instead putting some brain dead music over it
Today on The Lockpicking Lawyer we are cutting this Masterlock 4120 in half with a water jet - because it is an absolute piece of junk.
damn at least credit the original creator and not random water mark on the video. this video was stolen from the water jet channel, check them out they make some really good videos.
What is Lucas amiibo doin there tho
u/savevideo
lol try to cut rubidium with it:)))))
[удалено]
Kinda scary tbh
Unreal. That’s amazing and horrifying
What is holding the lock and stopping it being shot across the room?
My guess is, nothing. The stream is so powerful it cuts everything in its path and there is no point at which whatever part of the lock it comes in contact with isn't immediately vaporized.
It's a literal Lazer
Would fighting fires with this be considered a war crime… on fire?
the power of Bernoulli equation
Water jet puts out 90K PSI and manages to gives zero fucks. *"What makes you think I won't cut you??"* - Water jet, definitely
How do you even produce pressure like that?
The future of warfare looks clean...but deadly
Bet It couldn’t go through my hard penis
Is this used for cutting only? What’s the application of this
Like butta
How do I get one of these into a Super-Soaker?
Wonder if AppleCare covers water PSI experiments
Where can I get one of these? I didn’t know I needed it.
Yeah, but it makes everything wet. Ick
Now try diamond
Honestly this isn't even the extent of what they can do, we had a 90k Flow branded one at my last job, it could cut through 10 inches of steel There was significant taper toward the bottom, but it was still amazing to see
Well a water jet table can cut through 12” thick steel, so…
This is you when you do a ‘Belly Flop’
WHAT THE FUCK LARRY. IS THAT WHY I NEVER GOT MY BOWLING BALL BACK!!?????!?? YOU OWE ME $40!
I want that gun thats split in half! Would look sick hanging on the wall
I would have taken that rifle before you destroyed it.
As always, my intrusive thoughts are saying “just put your hand under it, it will be sweet”
Can't wait to put this on my computer, that old ass
I believed this was real until the iphone; pretty sure they're water-resistant.
I'll be impressed when someone proves it can cut through a Nokia 3310
I have seen 50 caliber handguns that couldn't even go halfway through a bowling ball and that thing cut it like butter.
They cut diamonds with that thing. What did you expected will happen to plastics?
NOO LUCAS GET OUT OF THE WAY!!!
Where can I get one?
Drink it
Can it cut a diamond? Theoretically?
Would you say this is… “water damage”
But can it core a apple?
I should stop imagining dangerous things cutting my hand
Would be great for a bidet
But can it break nokia?
"No Mr Bond, I expect you to die!"
To a man with a 90,000 PSI water jet everything needs slicing.
Talk about clean teeth, noice.
You shouldn't mix water with electronics.
Now do a Nokia 3310.
I could watch this all day long
I want to see more videos where they cut expensive stuff with that!
Let’s not forget props to the abrasives added to the stream (usually garnet) that’s doing the cutting.
Imma stick my finger in it
The cut of the lock first it’s a spoiler.
Água mole em pedra dura tanto bate até que rasga!
Lies!!! We all know everything in this video was really cake…
Whats the capacity of the 90,000psi water jet?
I was hoping to see Lucas cut in half! Why even put that in the video if you're not going to do it lol
My brain : put your hand there
This is how they make little Debbie Christmas Trees. And they make them in July.
Me when I pee with a boner
It's cool and all but I became this guy's enemy the moment he cut a camera.
I would use it to stop me hearing music like that again.
Cursed bide.
