Chain Cleaning Machine WELDTITE DIRTWASH DIRT TRAP WLD-6017 with 75ml Degreaser

WELDTITE DIRTWASH DIRT TRAP WLD-6017 with 75ml Degreaser is a chain cleaning machine designed for effective removal of dirt, grease and road grime from bicycle chains. The device combines mechanical brushing with solvent exposure to dislodge contaminants and assist degreasing, improving chain cleanliness and supporting smoother drivetrain operation. Supplied with a 75 ml degreaser, the unit is intended for routine maintenance and deeper cleaning of chains used on road, gravel and commuter bicycles.

Advantages

The design enables thorough cleaning by surrounding the chain with brushes that agitate links while the degreaser penetrates rollers and plates. Inclusion of a dedicated 75 ml degreaser ensures immediate compatibility and avoids the need to source a solvent separately. The compact, hand-operated construction is portable and suitable for home workshop use; it reduces manual contact with dirty lubricant and accelerates cleaning compared with brush-only methods.

Suitable for

• Routine chain maintenance on road, gravel and commuter bicycles
• Deep cleaning before relubrication or seasonal servicing
• Home mechanics and small workshops needing a compact chain-cleaning tool
• Users who prefer a mechanical cleaning method combined with a supplied solvent

When it may not be suitable

The device is intended for external chain cleaning and degreasing; it is not a replacement for full drivetrain disassembly or ultrasonic cleaning when extreme contamination or internal wear is present. It may not be suitable for very large or non-standard chain sizes that do not fit the machine's brush configuration.

Key specifications

• Cleaning method: mechanical brushing combined with solvent contact
• Included solvent volume: 75 ml degreaser
• Compatibility: standard bicycle chains for road, gravel and commuter bikes
• Operation: hand-operated, portable unit for workshop or home use

How to use

Mount the chain cleaning machine according to the manufacturer's guidance so the chain passes through the brush chamber. Add the supplied 75 ml degreaser into the reservoir or contact area as instructed, then rotate the pedals or turn the chain to run it through the brushes. Continue cycling the chain until contaminants are visibly removed, then rinse or wipe the chain to remove residue and allow it to dry before applying fresh lubricant. Follow safety guidance to avoid skin or eye contact with the degreaser and work in a well-ventilated area.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure compatibility with your chain type and width
• Decide whether a hand-operated brush machine meets your cleaning needs versus ultrasonic or disassembly methods
• Consider availability of replacement brushes and suitable degreasers for future use
• Plan for appropriate disposal or handling of used solvent and cleaning residue

Usage recommendations

Use the supplied 75 ml degreaser for initial cleaning and assess chain condition after one full clean; follow with targeted relubrication. For heavily soiled chains, repeat cleaning cycles and allow full drying before lubrication. Store the unit and solvent away from heat sources and keep out of reach of children.
