Description
SB300 Ultrasonic Cleaner
Low-Foaming Aqueous Alkaline Solution for Industrial Parts Cleaning
SB300 Ultrasonic Cleaner is a low-foaming aqueous alkaline cleaning solution formulated for demanding industrial cleaning processes including ultrasonic cleaning, immersion tanks, spray wash systems, spray/rinse operations, steam injection, and pre-/post-NDT cleaning
SB300 provides excellent removal of oils, greases, and shop soils while maintaining foam control in agitated and high-energy cleaning systems. The formulation is free-rinsing, compatible with a wide range of metals, and suitable for applications where residue-free cleaning is required prior to inspection, assembly, coating, or corrosion-protection packaging.

SB300 is suitable for use in cleaning processes aligned with Airbus manufacturing and maintenance workflows, including ultrasonic and immersion cleaning of metallic components prior to inspection, assembly, or surface treatment.
Use is subject to customer process approval and internal specifications.
Boeing Application Alignment
SB300 is compatible with aqueous cleaning processes commonly specified in Boeing production and MRO operations, particularly where low foam, effective degreasing, and free-rinsing performance are required.
Final approval is dependent on customer-specific process qualification.
AMS / Aerospace Process Compatibility
SB300 is formulated to support cleaning operations performed in accordance with applicable AMS (Aerospace Material Specification) process requirements, including pre- and post-NDT cleaning, degreasing prior to assembly, and surface preparation before coating or corrosion protection.
SB300 is not sold as an AMS-certified product but is commonly used in processes governed by AMS cleaning specifications when validated by the end user.
NDT & Inspection Readiness
The low-foaming, free-rinsing formulation of SB300 supports pre- and post-NDT cleaning workflows, helping ensure parts are free of oils and residues that could interfere with inspection results.
Residue-Free Cleaning for Flight-Critical Components
SB300 leaves no oily film or protective residue, making it suitable for aerospace applications where surface cleanliness is critical prior to inspection, assembly, or packaging.
