Description

If you've been reloading for any length of time, you know that clean brass is the foundation of consistent ammo. Frankford Arsenal's 18 lb Walnut Hull Media is built to pull dirt, grit, and powder residue off your spent cases before they go anywhere near your dies. Walnut has a reputation as the aggressive cleaner of the tumbling world, and this stuff lives up to it, scrubbing off the heavy grime that corn cob tends to leave behind.

What Makes the Walnut Hull Media Worth Running

Ground from real walnut shell, this media has a harder, more abrasive bite than corn cob, which makes it the go-to for brass that's come back from the range caked in dirt and carbon. It carries a 16/20 sieve size, so the granules are fine enough to work into case mouths and primer pockets without getting stuck. Toss it in a vibratory tumbler, let it run, and your cases come out clean and ready for the next step. A lot of folks run walnut for the first pass to cut the dirt, then switch to corn cob for a final polish and shine.

Putting the 18 lb Brass Cleaning Media to Work

There's no mixing or prep here. Just pour what you need straight into your tumbler of choice and let it do its job. The media holds up through plenty of cycles before it loses its edge, and when it finally wears down you top it off or swap it out. Keeping your brass clean does more than make it look good too, since it protects your reloading dies and cuts down on wear every time you run cases through.

This is the untreated version, so if you want a brighter shine you can add a dose of brass polish to the mix. The 18 lb size is the smart buy for high-volume reloaders who go through brass by the bucket, and the leftover media stores easily in any sealed container until the next session.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this walnut media treated or untreated?

This 18 lb walnut hull media is the untreated version. It cleans brass very well on its own, and if you want extra shine you can add a bit of brass polish to the tumbler. Many reloaders prefer untreated so they can control exactly how much polish goes in.

What's the difference between walnut and corn cob media?

Walnut is harder and more abrasive, so it does the heavy lifting of removing dirt, grit, and carbon from dirty range brass. Corn cob is softer and better suited to putting a final polish and shine on cases. A common approach is to clean with walnut first, then polish with corn cob.

Will this walnut brass cleaning media work in my tumbler?

Yes. It's designed for standard vibratory case tumblers, so you just pour in what you need and let it run. The 16/20 sieve size works its way into case mouths and primer pockets without clogging things up.

How many times can I reuse the walnut hull media?

The media is built to be used repeatedly across many cleaning cycles. Over time it loses some of its cutting power as it picks up residue, so you'll want to top it off or replace it when your brass stops coming out as clean. The 18 lb size gives high-volume reloaders a long-lasting supply.
