Knot Wire Brushes
Provide high impact action and offer low to medium flexibility through the use of twisted wire tufts for heavy-duty applications, such as weld cleaning. Knot wire brushes are available in 2-knot configurations.
Crimped Wire Brushes
General-purpose wire brushes that provide higher flexibility and cleaning action through the use of flexible wire points. They offer a wider work face than knot style and are ideal for light applications such as rust or paint removal.
Wire Size Specifications
The thickness of the wire brush will impact the end result of the workpiece. Fine wire such as .008 will produce a finer finish and will yield a longer brush life. Thicker wires, such as .014 and .020 or higher, will be more aggressive and will decrease production times.
