Parts cleaning challenges we solve most often in this sector include:
| Component | Reason | Contaminants |
| Gearbox housings and internals | Inspection and reassembly | Gear oil, metal wear particles, oil sludge, sealant residues |
| Hydraulic valves and manifolds | Precision function – even small particulate residues can cause valve malfunction or accelerated wear on reassembly | Hydraulic fluid, metal fines, particulate contamination, varnish deposits |
| Electric motor housings and end shields | Pre-rewind inspection and reassembly | Carbon dust, grease, ingressed dirt, oxidation products |
| Pump casings and impellers | Surface inspection – corrosion and scale can obscure wear and pitting; surface treatment or coating | Corrosion products, mineral scale, oil residues, process fluid residues |
| Fabricated metal components (brackets, frames, housings) | Pre-inspection, pre-weld and pre-coat preparation | Corrosion products, cutting oils, mill scale, weld spatter, workshop grime |
Where remanufactured parts need to meet the same standard as new ones, scrupulous parts cleaning is an essential first step. Our washers remove even stubborn contaminants – crucially, without damaging the part itself.
With advanced chemistry, clear processes and programmable cleaning cycles, our parts washing solutions can reduce the time operators spend cleaning by up to 70%. Meanwhile, our service includes regular expert maintenance for the parts washer itself – so your team can focus their skills where they’re needed most.
70% of our cleaning fluid is aqueous, reducing VOCs, improving safety and simplifying your risk assessments. Our service also includes compliant and documented waste chemical disposal, helping you comply with REACH and the Waste Framework Directive.
Our cleaning solutions are highly efficient, reducing your spend on energy, water, and downtime. Our single monthly fee covers your parts washer, chemistry, training, maintenance, waste disposal, documentation, and ongoing expert support. No capital investment, no unexpected hit to your budget.
Working with Safetykleen, parts cleaning becomes a repeatable, validated process – with training, support, and full documentation. This dramatically simplifies inspections and audits.
