Custom Cleaning Brush
18mm P180 SiC Tube Brush
18mm P180 SiC Tube Brush is built for Heat Exchanger Tube Internal Cleaning where the brush must enter or follow internal walls, threads, and blind holes. Head size, working length, stem flexibility, and fill are selected to loosen chips, oil, and coolant without losing access or control.
Product Features
18 mm head fits compact tubes and bores — The brush targets internal passages requiring controlled abrasive action.
P180 silicon-carbide nylon provides relatively aggressive cutting — The filament removes scale, burrs, and surface deposits.
Flexible abrasive bristles follow the bore — The brush cuts with filament tips rather than a rigid stone.
Radial fill works around the complete circumference — Internal surfaces receive even contact.
Open bristle structure carries debris away — Swarf and residue can escape between filaments.
Working length, SiC grit, filament diameter, stem, tip, and connection can be customized.
Product Overview
18mm P180 SiC Tube Brush uses a working section shaped around the available opening, depth, and internal profile. It contacts internal walls, threads, and blind holes to remove chips, oil, and coolant; the access path and minimum clearance determine whether the brush needs a rigid stem, a flexible extension, a tapered head, or a stepped cleaning section. Brush diameter, working length, tip form, and stem flexibility must match the complete passage.
Key dimensions start with Brush head diameter 18 mm, Brush head length 80 mm, and Handle length 180 mm. The structure uses a tube or bore brush so the filament can contact the inside wall. The specified interface is threaded removable. Silicon Carbide Abrasive Nylon are the principal material directions in the current specification. Handle and head dimensions should balance access, grip, and controlled bristle contact.

Selection Guidance
Structure fit
Match the tube & pipe bore brush geometry to internal walls, threads, and blind holes, the available access, and manual operation. Confirm Brush head diameter 18 mm, Brush head length 80 mm, and Handle length 180 mm against the complete working envelope before finalizing the brush.
Contact material
Choose from Silicon Carbide Abrasive Nylon according to the behavior of chips, oil, and coolant, the surface sensitivity, and any wet, chemical, temperature, or hygiene requirements. Stiffness is not decided by the material name alone. Filament diameter, free trim length, and density also matter.
When to use another solution
For 18mm P180 SiC Tube Brush, use another cleaning method when chips, oil, and coolant cannot be released by controlled filament contact, when internal walls, threads, and blind holes cannot tolerate the selected contact material, or when the access path prevents safe engagement and residue removal.
