Agro & Pre-treated Media For Vibratory Finishing Machines
Agro Media can be used for surface brightening or final finish refinement. The Pre-treated Media is recommended for achieving a high lustre or mirror finish on components. Agro and pre-treated media is manufactured out of corn cob or walnut shell and can be used for drying, polishing and cleaning. All of our Agro and Pre-Treated Medias are bovine free and the use of a dust extractor to collect fine dust resulting from using Maizorb in a drying process is recommended.

Media Type | Material Specification | Media Size | Approx. Grain Size in mm |
---|---|---|---|
Maizorb | The maizorb grains have high abrasion resistance, good moisture absorption and low specific gravity. This agro product is best suited for drying, cleaning and polishing components. | Maize 4 Maize 6 Maize 8 Maize 10 Maize 12 Maize 16 Maize 20 Maize 30 Maize 80 Maize 200 | 4.50 – 8.00 3.50 – 6.50 2.50 – 4.00 1.60 – 2.50 1.50 – 2.00 1.00 – 1.50 0.75 – 1.00 0.25 – 0.75 0.20 – 0.55 0 – 0.20 |
Pre-treated Maizorb | The pre-treated maizorb has been developed to produce a bright mirror finish. This can be used both in vibratory and high energy machines. | Pre-treated Maize 4 Pre-treated Maize 6 Pre-treated Maize 8 Pre-treated Maize 10 Pre-treated Maize 12 Pre-treated Maize 16 Pre-treated Maize 20 Pre-treated Maize 30 Pre-treated Maize 80 Pre-treated Maize 200 | 4.50 – 8.00 3.50 – 6.50 2.50 – 4.00 1.60 – 2.50 1.50 – 2.00 1.00 – 1.50 0.75 – 1.00 0.25 – 0.75 0.20 – 0.55 0 – 0.20 |
Walnut Shell | Walnut shells are hard and fibrous, and are known as ‘soft abrasive’. Being extremely durable, walnut shells are used for the cleaning and polishing of heat-treated components, jewellery, surgical components, watches, etc. | Walnut Shell 1/12 Walnut Shell 2/12 Walnut Shell 3/16 Walnut Shell 4/20 Walnut Shell 5/30 | 2.36 – 1.00 2.00 – 1.00 1.40 – 0.71 1.00 – 0.60 0.60 – 0.30 |
Pre-treated Walnut Shell | The pre-treated walnut shell imparts high lustre on components. It has been proven that on certain materials, pretreated walnut produces a much brighter finish than pre-treated maizorb. | Pre-treated Walnut Shell 1/12 Pre-treated Walnut Shell 2/12 Pre-treated Walnut Shell 3/16 Pre-treated Walnut Shell 4/20 Pre-treated Walnut Shell 5/30 | 2.36 – 1.00 2.00 – 1.00 1.40 – 0.71 1.00 – 0.60 0.60 – 0.30 |
