Knight Manufacturing's Thread Protector Cleaning Machine uses a petroleum base solvent with a ceramic media to rub against the ID and OD surface of the protector – plastic or metal – providing an unbeatable cleaning experience.
The process, which takes about half an hour, uses a viciously vibrating electric shaker to remove debris and built-up thread compound from the protectors. This unit, in addition to its quick and efficient process, eliminates the human element from the cleaning process – increasing the safety factor.
The Thread Protector Cleaning Machine has a footprint of 5’x3’x4’.
