Walnut Shell
& Corncob are soft blasting media processed from natural hardfibers
of walnut or corn. The major advantage is that fragile components can be
cleaned without marking or etching the components' blasted surfaces.
They are suitable for
cleaning autoMobile super chargers and turbine blades, removing unwanted
flash residue produced during the moulding process from semi-conductor
integrated circuit package lead frames without damaging or pitting the
package surface. They are also used in power generation stations, turbine
overhaul factories and the aerospace industry.
Besides these,
walnut Shell is widely used for cleaning moulds, motor armatures and motor
drives prior to rewinding. Corncob is very light, soft and absorbent. It can be used for cleaning
delicate surfaces or brass/brick/stone/wood, engines and engine components
as well as mass finishing processes for drying and absorbing water, oil or
wax from processed parts and also for fine polishing or brightening of
parts.
