Ultrasonic cleaner and Volquartsen aluminum sleeved stainless barrel upper

I have the above barrel and was wondering if it would be safe to drop it as well as the bolt, in an ultrasonic cleaner? Will it be harmed in any way? (Black anodized finish?) TIA!

The upper is a Volquartsen VC4LLV-4 Competition Upper 4.5'' fits Ruger MKIV
 
I cannot say but I have cleaned my Khar K40 black SST in a mild soap solution with no issues. Aluminum is a way different animal than SST. Any type of cleaner as used for brass will screw it up.
