Parts Cleaning Brushes Fill Material

There are various types of natural and synthetic fibers used in our standard parts cleaning brush products. Sometimes the filament is bridled with a binding wire to produce a stiffer and more controlled brushing action. This wire can be eventually cut as the bristles wear down, extending the life of the brush.

We offer four different filament types in our parts cleaning product offering including:

• Tampico is natural fiber produced from the agave plant. It has exceptional water retention characteristics, excellent biodegradability and superior heat and water and alkaline resistance. The soft-to-medium texture softens when it absorbs water.
• Polypropylene is a high-quality, versatile filament with chemical and acid resistant properties. Our polypropylene brush features a dome or pointed bristle shape.
• Bristle is a natural fiber from a hog that carries liquids well, while maintaining its shape and stiffness in use over time. Bristle naturally has split end making it ideal for carrying and holding liquid.
• Horse hair is a natural fiber that is produced from the mane or tail hair and each provides a different stiffness and texture and is excellent for picking up and carrying dust and fine powders.
