Let us pick your carcass clean with the ultimate

Bubbling Buzzard Bath!

An ultrasonic gun cleaning is a great way to maintain your firearms. Ultrasonic cleaners are widely employed by law enforcement agencies, the military, gun clubs and right here at Old Buzzard Armory, and for good reason. When it comes to removing lead shavings, residues from powders, old lubricants, and any other contaminant  - NOTHING IS BETTER!

Our Bubbling Buzzard Bath treatment includes a full ultrasonic cleaning, lubrication and inspection of each firearm. Let us pick your carcass clean with the ultimate Bubbling Buzzard Bath.

Ultrasonic firearm cleaning is much more effective when compared to manually cleaning and lubricating with rods, brushes, pads, solvents and oils.

The effectiveness of ultrasonically cleaning guns due to how the process works. Cleaning takes place in a stainless-steel tank containing an ultrasonic cleaning solution formulated for the particular firearm cleaning tasks being performed. The underside of gun cleaner tank bottoms is fitted with what are called ultrasonic transducers.  Transducers are connected to the unit’s ultrasonic generator that when operating excites the transducers to vibrate at ultrasonic frequencies.  These frequencies are above the range of human hearing (approximately 40,000 cycles per second or 40 kHz).

When the ultrasonic cleaner is activated the transducers cause the tank bottom to become a vibrating membrane that creates what are called cavitation bubbles in the ultrasonic gun cleaner solution. 

Unlike soap bubbles cavitation bubbles implode with tremendous force on contact with objects immersed in the cleaning solution.  The rapid compression of gases and vapors inside these bubbles create temperatures which can be on the order of 5000⁰C, similar to the surface of the Sun.  The pressure inside the bubble is approximately 1000 atmospheres, equivalent to the deepest point in the ocean.

But not to worry.  Cavitation action is so fast that ultrasonic firearm cleaning is safe for most anything that can be immersed in a cleaning solution.

A little about our Equipment:
All ULTRASONIC POWER CORPORATION systems feature our unique “Simultaneous Multi-Frequency®” utilizing “Vibra-Bar®” transducers. We permanently attach our “Vibra-Bar®” transducers to the underside of the radiating surface using a proprietary process that insures long term reliability. The unique construction of the Vibra-Bar provides complex resonance of 40-90 kHz, which produces ULTRASONIC POWER CORPORATION’S patented “Simultaneous Multi-Frequency®”, thus virtually eliminating undesirable standing waves.   UPcorp.com.
