Walnut Shell Tumbler Media for Cleaning

Walnut Shell Tumbler Media Information

Walnut shell tumbler media is a hard and fibrous product made from crushed walnut shells in accordance with International Trade Standard, used as a soft abrasive for removal of undesirable coatings without etching, scratching or marring surfaces. The walnut shell polishing media is ground to various sizes from coarse to extra fine depending the application, allowing for a fine degree of control over the desired finish. Walnut shells are used in many polishing and/or deburring applications. Walnut shell media is used for polishing or cleaning fine metals, alloys, mechanical parts, shell cartridges, eye glass lens, rocks, stones, coral, ivory, beans, and seeds. Walnut shell is used as an polishing media similar to sand for polishing or deburring but without the negativities associated with other abrasive materials. Because walnut shell polishing is a gentle, non-corrosive environmentally friendly method of removing burrs, splinter, rusts, wets, edges and corners, without scratching, etching, pitting the substrate material / underlying surface or marring cleaned areas. When used as a polishing media, walnut shell grit is extremely durable, angular and multi-faceted, yet is considered a ‘soft polishing media’. Walnut shell polishing media is an excellent replacement for sand (free silica) to avoid inhalation health concerns.
Like other soft media, Walnut shell cleans and removes matter from surfaces without damaging underlying material.
Suggested mesh sizes are 4/6, 6/10, 8/12, 12/20, 14/30, 18/40, 35/60, 40/100, 60/200, #100, #200
