Eden Products Ltd is the leading UK supplier of Walnut Shell Granules for use on a range of Shot Blast Equipment.
Walnuts are pre-ground, cleaned, and the membrane and fat are removed from the shell right before they go for further processing. They're specifically ground on hammer and roller mills to get the correct size and surface of the granule. Walnut Shells are ground to numerous sizes (coarse, Medium and fine) for the use in a number of applications.
Direct injected vehicles have one significant downside over port-injected engines, which is that carbon deposits can build up as time passes, requiring them to be taken out at frequent intervals through the entire lifespan of the engine. The best and common process to do this is the use of Walnut Shells in a procedure usually known as Walnut Blasting. Walnut blasting is when crushed and graded walnut shells are blown into the car’s engine (intake valve) using an air compressor. It works similar to a sand blaster removing the carbon deposits from the surface being blasted. Walnut blasting is recognised by most mechanics as one of the safest and most successful ways of eradicating carbon deposits from your car’s intake manifold and intake valves. Nearly all direct-injected engines will require this de-carbonisation procedure finished at frequent intervals throughout the lifespan of the vehicle’s engine.
