Some applications of rosin require the use of rosin in the form of powder or dust. Such applications usually intend to improve grip, increase friction or prevent slipping. All rosin powders we offer are powdered natural gum rosin (CAS No: 8050-09-7) or a blend of it.
Natural Rosin Powder
Natural gum rosin can be ground to powder in cold temperatures; however, the powder particles may soon stick to each other and form a solid chunk again. To avoid this problem, some anti-caking powder may be added to natural rosin powder. The most widely used blends of natural rosin powder contains about 20% diluent or anti-caking agent such as Magnesium Carbonate, Calcium Carbonate, Talcum Powder, Fumed Silica, Kaolin, and Starch.
Recent discoveries also allow production of 100% natural rosin powder without diluents.
This type of rosin powder is highly accepted among users who try to minimize or avoid exposure to inorganic dusts. Many inorganic powders are suspected to be carcinogen if inhaled. This includes silica powder and talcum powder.
The natural rosin powder with product code ROSINP100 does not contain any diluent, additive or anticaking agent. It is produced under strict temperature and atmospheric control to prevent clump formation.
Storage: This product must be stored in closed containers and cool/ dry storage.
Shelf life: The recommended shelf life of ROSINP100 is 6 months. The storage environment highly affects the shelf life.
Description: Used as a grip-improving powder, Natural Rosin Powder is perfect for athletes, and is ideal for applying to athletes’ hands or the soles of basketball shoes for improved traction, dusting on the handles of baseball and softball bats for improved grip, and using for dusting strap wrench and similar tools.

- Magnesium carbonate
- Talcum powder
- clay powder
- powdered starch
- Fumed silica powder

Rosin powder blends with other minerals such as Talcum Powder, Clay, or Fumed Silica are produced as requested. Lead time is usually 1 to 4 weeks.
ROSINCR: Coarse Ground Rosin
Coarse Ground natural rosin powder is a mixture of granular rosin crystals and powders. This grade of rosin is used in rosin bags and aquatint boxes. As rosin crystals are rubbed against each other in a rosin bag or by the action of the paddle in aquatint box, fresh rosin dust is produced. Fresh rosin dust is more sticky than old rosin dust. That is why many users prefer this grade to finely ground rosin.
Description: Pine Rosin Powder is a 100% natural grip-improving powder used in various sports applications. It is made by crushing well-dried natural pine rosin to a fine granular and powder form. The powder is commonly used to create dust in baseball bags and aquatint boxes for improved grip. The powder contains no additives or diluents. Its specific uses include:
Improved grip for sports equipment
Creates dust in baseball bags and aquatint boxes for improved grip
