Twisted-in-wire brushes are commonly referred to by our customers as tube brushes, bottle brushes, pipe brushes, or internal cleaning brushes. Our standard brushes are suitable for both hand-held use and for use in power tools; including drills, drill presses and CNC machining centers.
Twisted-in-wire brushes are made by placing bristle material in between the stem wires and then twisting the stem wires tightly, which secures the filament. With our custom, made-to-order twisted brush capabilities, we can easily adjust the length and diameter of the brush. Combined with our many filament options, the possibilities for your twisted-in-wire brush are practically limitless.
Important: Reversing a twisted-in-wire brush may loosen the stem wire, causing a loss of fill bristles. Always rotate the brush in a clockwise direction when the brush points away from the user. This will tighten the brush construction.
General applications include cleaning, de-burring, polishing, reaming, finishing or removing debris or burrs from internal non-metallic and metallic surfaces. Specific applications for twisted-in-wire brushes include:
• Cleaning internal tubing and piping and cylinders
• De-burring machined and threaded holes in castings, tanks and machined parts
• Abrasive brushes for tough slag removal
• Cleaning medical devices and equipment
• Cleaning laboratory equipment and beakers
• Cleaning hydraulic fittings and nozzles
• Shotgun, pistol and rifle cleaning
• Whisper light brushes for cleaning electronic and computer components
• Used to dissipate lightning
• Remove gases during vacuum distillation process
• Used in removing water bubbles in air fluid control
• Clean refrigerator coils
• Clean valve guides
• Clean automotive and aircraft parts
We can easily change the length of the brush, diameter of the brush and the many filaments choices offer virtually endless possibilities.
Safety Requirements: Operators must, at all times, observe common safety practices, such as wearing goggles, keeping machine guards in place, observing all speed restrictions, wearing appropriate protective clothing and comply with ANS-B165.1 - 1979 "Safety Requirements For The Design, Care And Use Of Power Driven Brushing Tools."
