Ultrasonic cleaning tanks.

Hi All,

I'm looking to buy an ultrasonic cleaner.

For those of you who already have them, what size & brand did you go for?

Many thanks in advance.

Amazon product

Works well no issues. As long as your nuts fit into it shouldnt be a problem.

Its small but I have only used it on a handful of things. Cleaned my calipers up a treat.

What is the litre capacity please?

Calipers are exactly what I have in mind.

Also, which fluid did you choose?

Have you looked at a simple electrolysis setup DIY style. If its only the 1 time use type thing.

Never tried it but .

I just acquired another project, so I will have parts to do for the foreseeable future.

Calipers from which vehicle please?
The front calipers on this Wolf are quite big and I can't imagine getting them in a 3l tank.

It was calipers from my Delorean, and they were split so 1/2 of each side in at any one time.

Have you found that any particular brand of fluid works best?

Nope, I purchased about 8 bottles of that one I linked and have used 2... saw no need to deviate. I wouldn't OTT on the fluid its the ultrasonicness which is doing the work.

Is yours a 10 litre?

Keep in mind the bigger it is the more liquid is needed to cover the item..... The liquid is fairly pricey stuff.

Yes, I noticed that.
I haven't looked into that far enough yet, but I have seen a number of articles describing making it yourself.

Not sure till I get it back , you can mix yer own fluid, saw it on google

I’ve got one for bike carbs and other similar items, works great. But wouldn’t put brake callipers in it. Completely unnecessary, brake calipers are easy to clean.

We've got a idy biddy one that my wife uses, to clean her jewelry. Works superb with just water.

I'm considering the 10l Creworks.

Does your timer actually stop the heating when it reaches temperature? It seems the Creworks ones don't AND they only have a 6 month warranty - that's appalling.
