The MEC 400 Vibratory Case Tumbler delivers consistent brass cleaning performance for reloaders who demand spotless cases. This compact vibratory tumbler removes tarnish, oxidation, and residue from fired brass cases, restoring them to like-new condition for optimal reloading results.
What Makes This Different
The MEC 400 features a balanced motor design that minimizes vibration transfer while maximizing cleaning action inside the bowl. Unlike basic tumblers that create excessive noise and movement, this unit incorporates rubber dampening feet and a precision-weighted motor assembly. The result is quieter operation and more effective cleaning cycles that won't walk across your workbench.
Key Features
- 400-case capacity bowl handles large batches efficiently
- Variable speed control adjusts cleaning intensity for different brass types
- Rubber dampening feet reduce vibration and noise transmission
- Removable bowl with pour spout for easy media separation
- Heavy-duty motor rated for continuous operation
- Compact footprint fits standard reloading bench spaces
- Compatible with corn cob, walnut shell, and synthetic cleaning media
Field testing shows the MEC 400 produces consistently clean brass across multiple calibers from .223 Remington to .45 ACP. The variable speed control allows operators to adjust cleaning intensity based on case condition and media type. Heavily tarnished range brass typically requires 2-3 hours of tumbling, while lightly soiled cases achieve optimal cleanliness in 45-60 minutes. The unit maintains stable operation during extended cleaning cycles without overheating.
