A relatively soft nut shell abrasive for removal of undesirable coating without etching, scratching, or marring surfaces. The pellets are tough, possess high strength and resist break down, but are non-abrasive in character. Excellent reuse, low dust, and usable in all types of blasting equipment. Most widely used for blast cleaning when very close tolerances must be maintained.

Other Applications:
- As a lost circulation material for bridging agent due to its granular nature
- Also use as a drag reducer in deviated holes
- Walnut Shells are chemically inert and may be added to any mud system
