How Long Will it Take to Clean my Silencerco Hybrid 46M in my Ultasonic Cleaner…..??

[@dads2006gt]

I use a large ziplock freezer bag. Put simple green in the bag with the suppressor and parts. Fill unit up with hot water and place bag in the water. This process did an amazing job cleaning my silencerco hybrid 46m. I ran the ultrasonic cleaner for two cycles of 15 minutes each. I have the 15 L Creworks. Heat setting on it works great.

[@PaulM-d7k]

Great video. I have the Hybrid 46 but haven't run enough rounds through it yet to even bother cleaning it. Might have to get an ultrasonic though, lots of other uses for it as well. Thanks.

[@kentuckyrangetime]

@@PaulM-d7k They are versatile. I use mine for brass cases, BCG, small engine parts…. basically anything that needs cleaned. Just change the cleaning solution for the project. 😉👍🏻

[@Anthony-reborn]

I also recommend standing the can upright instead of on its side. Because of how the sound waves moves the fluid itself inside the cleaner.

[@kentuckyrangetime]

My tank isn’t deep enough. 😢😉

[@Anthony-reborn]

@@kentuckyrangetime I got the same one as you. Just flip it around every so often

[@davidcrosby3099]

Use Breakthrough Suppressor cleaner .. it WILL blow your mind . I didn’t believe it until I tried it myself

[@michaelrubens4644]

In an ultrasonic cleaner?

[@TacticalBuffoonary]

Just a suggestion for scientific purposes but maybe you could weigh the dirty suppressor before you clean it to see how much carbon buildup has been removed for a before and after comparison. I weighed all mine when they were new to find out how clean they were after soaking. If they still weighed more then new, I knew I needed to keep soaking .

[@lobbyrobby]

I just ordered one today. My first silencer. Yay! I don't have an ultrasonic cleaner. I guess I will buy one if need be but hopefully I can find something else as a different method that works well

[@Anthony-reborn]

I use hoppes numner 9 and charcoal lighter fluid for cleaning solution and i leave it in for a couple of hours. That will get that metal shiny on the inside.

[@RickHunter811]

Hey Anthony, am new to cleaning supressors. Can you share your recipe with the hoppes number 9 and charcoal lighter fluid for cleaning solution ratio and tenique you use?

[@tony-ms5sf]

​@RickHunter811 you can also use wd40 but it's just a filler. Because I don't have a lot of hoppes 9 when I make this cleaning solution. I use one. Quart size bottle of hoppes 9 and I have a gallon of wd40 I bought from harbor freight. An I just add lots of wd40 till it's enough to submerge all of the gun parts. It's it's an unserviceable suppressor like the hybrid in the video. I do recommend maybe some kind of bristle brush that spirals to fit in suppressor. But I submerge the unserviceable suppressor in the cleaning solution I mentioned previously. And it has to be in there for a couple hours to be honest. But you won't be able to remove the lead fouling. I also have an otter creek titanium 22 suppressor for my 22's I clean in my ultra sonic cleaner

[@tony-ms5sf]

​@@RickHunter811you can use the charcoal lighter fluid instead of the wd40 it works well also. I also turn on the heating element when it's in the ultra sonic cleaner. The fluids will not ignite from being heated. Unless you add a spark or something it will not ignite on its own from being heated by the cleaner

There's a jewelry store at the mall by me that has one of those by their enterence for people to clean their glasses I wonder if anyone would notice if i put a can in there lol

[@kentuckyrangetime]

[@falconsison2119]

Send it & record it too 😅😂

[@danielswann1041]

Baffle strike? Check the serial number to see if it falls under the recall on some 46m’s

[@kentuckyrangetime]

@@danielswann1041👍🏻 it didn’t, but Silencerco still replaced it with no charge, except my shipping costs.

[@michaelw.5921]

You’re supposed to clean your suppressors?… 😮

[@kentuckyrangetime]

@@michaelw.5921 🤷🏼‍♂️🙄😂

[@BrimforBreakfast]

I was under the impression it was a sealed can and it couldnt be cleaned like so

[@kentuckyrangetime]

The baffles are welded in and can’t be removed but the ends are both open to take different adaptors and end caps with different bore openings

[@randallwhite9015]

The baffles also come out as well.​@@kentuckyrangetime

[@jeremylyson8278]

Is that the 3l or 6l cleaner?

[@kentuckyrangetime]

@@jeremylyson8278 I think that one’s actually the 10L. I returned this one after the heater wouldn’t shut off and replaced it with a 3L that had an analog timer and stat.

[@jeremylyson8278]

Okay thanks ​@@kentuckyrangetime

[@lisforlifer]

The total best degreaser out there is zep purple industrial degreaser it at one time was probably owned by Rubbermaid and under the label of purple degreaser... You can buy a 5 gallon square bucket at Menards for about $50 or less Someone I knew told me that they received a message from eBay that the vevor ultrasonic cleaners were not grounded correctly and you should not put your hands on them while they are running while connected to electricity/outlets or connected to power... And as for CLR, zep has a formula that is probably eight times stronger than CLR Use at your own risk, I have used them myself for things that I have needed to clean Please read the directions before using any of these products

[@kentuckyrangetime]

@@lisforlifer 👍🏻. I worked for an electrical contractor a few years back and our maintenance guy swore by the purple power cleaner. He used it cleaning up the bucket trucks and tools all the time. 😉👊🏻

[@djtlfox]

How did u get the baffle strike?

[@kentuckyrangetime]

I’m still not sure. SICO didn’t even offer an explanation either which is frustrating…. I’d like to know for sure so it doesn’t happen again. lol The only thing I can figure out is maybe the Neilson device 🤷🏼‍♂️?? I’d ran this on 6ARC, 5.56, .300blk, .458socom and .22LR with no issues but that 9mm…. Both barrels checked out good with the bore alignment rod and the Neilson Device is the only variable that was different.

[@curtisleesdrummingvideos7054]

That worries me, as my 46m concentricity was out straight out of the box. I’m from KY also btw, what area you from?

[@kentuckyrangetime]

@@curtisleesdrummingvideos7054 Carter County /Grayson area you? They did have a recall on a batch from spring/summer ‘23

[@lisforlifer]

@@djtlfox I have loaded 200 grain Sierra match King bullets for 308 subsonic and at 20 ft out of a 12.5-in barrel fal pistol shooting at cardboard every bullet hit the cardboard sideways key holeing. Not enough twist to stabilize the long heavy bullet at a subsonic speed? You should always shoot at paper to see what the bullet does before you put a suppressor on anything

[@arthurdsoto5751]

Why are you getting Baffle strikes? I have an Omega 36M & I haven't had that happen.

[@kentuckyrangetime]

Honestly, I’m not real sure. Silencerco wants me to send it back so they can evaluate it though so I guess I’ll have to wait on them to tell me. I’ve tried 2 different threaded barrels and got strikes with both.

[@arthurdsoto5751]

@@kentuckyrangetime I'm sure they will figure it out for you.

[@5shotgroup451]

I thought silencer Co uses a clipped baffle design? Because that's what that looks like to me

[@kentuckyrangetime]

@@5shotgroup451 they do, but deeper in they are bent even more on 1 side. 😢

[@lousmith5264]

Temp is important in cleaning reaction time. For every 10 degree increase in temp, you double the physical chemical reaction. This is proven for all chemical reactions.

[@deotwell43]

CLR works way better.

[@randallwhite9015]

It's how the can is made, not a strike.

[@kentuckyrangetime]

@@randallwhite9015 lol. I guess Silencerco just replaced it for free out of the kindness of the heart then after I sent it back to them to be evaluated.
