Frankford Arsenal Platinum Series Rotary Tumbler

Who this is for
High-volume competitive reloaders
Action Gunner Take

This is Frankford Arsenal’s full-size wet tumbler, and the capacity difference over the Lite model is significant: 7 liters versus 3.3, which means up to 1,000 pieces of .223 brass per batch instead of 300. If you’re loading 500+ rounds between matches, this is the one that keeps up with your volume.

The kit ships ready to run. Five pounds of 304 stainless steel pins and a sample packet of cleaning solution are included, so you’re tumbling brass the day it arrives. The Lite model includes neither. The built-in timer (up to 3 hours with auto shutoff) is a genuine convenience. Load it, set it, walk away.

The geared drivetrain is belt-free, which eliminates the most common failure point on rotary tumblers. The double-walled rubber-lined drum keeps noise manageable. Screw-on end caps seal well, though they take real effort to get watertight. Some users add rubber bands to the drive wheels for better grip over time.

One thing to know: stainless steel pins will occasionally lodge in flash holes or sit sideways in case necks. Inspect your brass after tumbling. A magnet tool helps recover pins that scatter during separation. Also, the included cleaning solution sample is a single-use packet. Budget for a full bottle on your first order.

If you’re loading fewer than 300 rounds per session, the Lite model saves bench space and $150. But for match-volume reloading, this is the workhorse.

The Frankford Arsenal Platinum Series Rotary Tumbler 7L is a full-size wet tumbler designed for high-volume brass case cleaning during the reloading process. It uses water, cleaning solution, and stainless steel pins to clean the inside and outside of cases, including primer pockets and flash holes that vibratory tumblers miss. The 7-liter drum holds approximately 1,000 pieces of .223 Remington brass or roughly 500 pieces of larger calibers like .308 Winchester. A maintenance-free geared drivetrain (no belts) powers the drum, eliminating the most common wear item on rotary tumblers. The double-walled drum has a molded rubber lining that dampens noise during operation. A built-in timer on the base adjusts from 0 to 3 hours and shuts off automatically when the cycle completes. Two sets of end caps are included: clear viewing caps for monitoring progress and sifting caps with flexible grates for separating stainless steel pins from brass after tumbling. The sifting grate is flexible rather than rigid, which prevents cracking under the weight of a full load. For best results, run 1 to 2 hours with water, Frankford Arsenal Brass Cleaning Solution, and a small amount of dish soap. Pre-decapping brass before tumbling allows pins to access primer pockets more effectively. After tumbling, rinse thoroughly and dry brass completely before sizing or priming. A food dehydrator works well for drying both brass and pins. The tumbler operates on standard 110V household power. Oval indentations on the drum allow one-handed handling when moving it on and off the base. What’s Included:
  • Rotary tumbler base unit with built-in timer
  • 7-liter double-walled rubber-lined drum
  • 2 sets of end caps (clear viewing caps + sifting/separator caps with gaskets)
  • 5 lbs of 304 stainless steel tumbling media pins
  • 1 sample packet (2 fl oz) of Frankford Arsenal Brass Cleaning Solution
What’s NOT Included:
  • Additional brass cleaning solution beyond the single-use sample (full bottle sold separately, required for ongoing use)
  • Drying equipment (food dehydrator recommended)
  • Magnet tool for recovering scattered stainless steel pins (strongly recommended)
