Aerospace & Defence Cleaning Machinery Supplied by Rotajet
Cleanliness is a critical requirement within aerospace and defence Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) facilities. Before inspection, non-destructive testing (NDT), repair and reassembly, aircraft and defence components must be effectively cleaned to remove oils, hydraulic fluids, carbon deposits and fine particulates. Inadequate cleaning can mask defects, create false NDT indications and compromise component reliability.
As inspection methods become more sensitive and regulatory scrutiny increases, aerospace MRO operations rely on industrial, validated cleaning machinery to deliver repeatable and auditable results.
Aerospace & Defence Cleaning Machinery
Via www.degreasingmachines.com, Rotajet supplies a focused range of cleaning machines used in aerospace and defence MRO facilities, supporting inspection readiness and compliance:
- Aqueous spray wash machines delivering consistent, repeatable degreasing prior to inspection

All systems are designed to support AS9100, Nadcap and OEM cleaning requirements within regulated MRO environments.
NATO Stock Number (NSN) Cleaning Machinery
For military aviation and defence maintenance programmes, Rotajet supplies cleaning machines with NATO Stock Numbers (NSNs) assigned, allowing equipment to be specified and procured within NATO defence logistics systems. NSN-listed machinery is widely used in military aircraft maintenance and defence overhaul facilities.
Approved Cleaning Chemicals
Alongside machinery, Rotajet supplies a range of approved ultrasonic and spray-wash cleaning chemicals suitable for aerospace and defence MRO use. These formulations ensure effective contaminant removal while remaining compatible with aerospace alloys and sensitive surface finishes.
