Cleaning Challenges
Chips, cutting oils, drawing lube, scale, tarnish and annealing marks are all contaminants that ammunition manufacturers encounter. Steel, brass and aluminum ammunition components must be cleaned multiple times during fabrication and again after production is complete. Cleaning brass shell casings, for example, often happens after every step of fabrication.
