Vibratory Tumblers offer thorough, gentle cleaning - Automatically - Now you can thoroughly clean and polish small pieces and hardware without the risk of getting them "launched" by a wire wheel. Gentle vibratory tumbling action with the Green Light-Cut Media removes rust from nuts and bolts without rounding edges. Simply stop the tumbler when parts are de-rusted. A brilliant luster can then be achieved by using the Dry Shine Media. The vibratory action works more quickly than a rotating tumbler.
Vibratory tumblers thoroughly clean and polish small parts and hardware, leaving you free to work on other projects. Use the green media to gently remove paint; use the corncob media to lightly polish. When the parts reach the desired luster, they’re ready to be put back in service. The heavy duty vibratory tumbler system includes: 1 bowl, 7 lbs of paint removing media, 7 lbs polishing media, instructions.

Bolt Cleaning Made Easy - Eastwood 18lb Tumbler
I purchased this a couple of weeks ago and have used it multiple times. As a small business owner I know that time is valuable. This tumbler has turned a tedious task of bolt cleaning into a breeze. In a perfect world, the only thing I would change is the blue bucket to be detachable. It would make cleaning out the mud much easier. Other than that, I love it and would buy again without hesitation.

Works great cleaning stainless steel hardware!
So far this has been the best tool that we've found to remove rust, corrosion, and light paint. Although a brushwheel might be quicker if you really need one bolt, this thing is a lifesaver if you have a 100 to do. The green media works good for removing the heavy stuff and giving the hardware a clean, dull finish. The corn cob media takes it to the next step to give it a high polished finish. We've also used it on aluminum and galvanized hardware, and works great.
**I would suggest to add to this is to add in a timer so that the machine can turn itself off after 8 hrs. We purchased a simple 3 prong timer to solve this minor issue.
Also the shutoff clamp doesn't work the greatest, so I swapped the drain nipple with the cap plug on the top of the bowl. The green media likes to get caught and stuck in the drain nipple. May consider a solution for that in the future models.
Great machine though!! Saves hours of manual cleaning!!

Questions & Answers
Is metal shot suitable media for this tumbler?
We would not recommend using metal shot in the tumbler.

I am wondering if it might be a bit small to use for polishing pistons typically like Chevrolet 454? I did notice it suggests it is good for a single dimension of 5", if it was good for up to a 5" cylinder, that might be enough.
I am familiar with Chevy big block pistons and have to say they would fit in the hopper of the Eastwood 18 pound tumbler (20153). You should be able to get 2 and maybe 3 in at a time.

Is there an easy to way to plug drain hole? Media is spilling out of it :)
The Eastwood 18 pound Tumble(20153) comes with one solid plug and one drain plug with hose and clamp for draining. If tumbling dry install the solid plug in the lower hole(drain hole) then install the drain plug with or without the hose attached to the upper hole. Without the hose attached the drain plug will act as a vent when in the upper hole. When wet tumbling switch the plugs around putting the drainplug with hose and clamp in the bottom hole and the solid plug in the top hole.

Can you identify a replacement motor for the 18lb vibratory tumbler? Mine caught fire after little use. I suspect bad bearings made the motor seize. The motor appears to be the only damaged part, and it's a huge pain to empty and return it.
Please call into customer service and a parts order could be placed in with them. (800.343.9353)

How can I find/purchase the powder that you demonstrated by mixing with water to speed up the vibrator cleaning process? I saw you sold this when I viewed your on line demo. I do not remember its name and cannot find anything on your web site.
It's called Metal Wash and they do still sale it, item #10120.

How much noise does this make when it’s running?
This unit is pretty noisy in use. We typically leave this outside the shop doors when running this unit here.
