Ultrasonic Cleaner Suggestions

[Richard G]

Just a quick one to see if anyone can suggest any ultrasonic cleaners (of a size that can fit a cassette).

I appreciate that they're overkill, and unnecessary, but I'm at the point where time is getting more and more sparse, so anything that helps me clean my drivetrain / other bits and bobs is going to be of meaningful use to letting me do more outdoor riding, and less time on the ******* turbo trainer.

I'm thinking maybe 5+ litres would do the job. Ideally heated. optionally capable of degassing.

I'll have a look what model mine is tomorrow.

Found this thread by chance as looking for an ultrasonic cleaner (with a heater)
Advice needed ….
What size do people use? I’ve seen 2.5-3lt ones on Amazon, but unsure about size. (And dimensions of the container.
Width v depth etc
Any recommendations on Brands I should be looking at?

Size will largely be dictated by what you want to put in it.

Something around 6l will give you more scope. As an example, if you wanted to clean a bank of 4 carbs as a single unit, you'd need something around 10l.

These are worth a look. Perhaps not the cheapest but in my experience, cheap cleaners are generally of little use. Also, remember that they're cleaners and degreaserers, put something in caked in old oil and gunge and it'll come out cleaner but still caked in oil and gunge.

I have a basic "James" branded one, you can fit half a cassette or smaller rings complete it it breaks down, in at a time, which does work ok as you always run then more than one cycle. Pretty much everything else fits in in one go.

Of course they now make a never version that might be a bit bigger.
