Fasteners

fastenersNew fastener manufacturers worldwide use Magnus Engineered Equipment cleaning systems to clean fasteners for inspection and reconditioning. Particular emphasis is placed on particulate removal, rust prevention, and preserving part geometries. Our ability to adapt to your specific cleaning needs is unparalleled. If one of our standard systems won’t completely fit your needs, we work with you to engineer a custom design that will be the very best option to maximize your cleaning efficiency. We specialize in immersion agitation washing using either water-based (detergent) cleaners or VOC compliant solvents (high flash point, low vapor pressure, & low toxicity). We also offer many options for the specific needs of fastener manufacturers.

Parts can be washed on pin trays, in bulk containers, or “one at a time” in line as required by the geometry, soil, cleanliness requirement, and throughput volume of the part. Systems may be single stage “pre-wash” or chip removal units or complex multistage wash systems. Tough to remove chips are successfully removed by the powerful cleaning action of washers that are designed to rotate baskets or fixtures of parts while they are simultaneously raised and lowered “in and out” of the wash and rinse process stages. Fully automated load transfer is also available where required.

Fastener materials washed include (but not limited to): aluminum, alloy steels, brass, carbon steel, stainless steel, titanium, inconel alloys, and superalloys.
