Custom Cleaning Brush
Brush Lath
Brush Lath provides controlled brush contact for slot, rail, and pin across slots, guide rails, and pins. Working width, brush geometry, mounting, and fill are set around the machine path and the way dust, chips, and grease must be released or carried away.
Product Features
Continuous linear contact along a machine edge — Nylon bristles fixed to a rigid lath create an uninterrupted wiping, guiding, or light-sealing line.
Fits straight equipment runs — The brush can be installed beside conveyors, doors, guides, chutes, and openings where a long narrow contact face is required.
Resilient nylon follows small surface variation — The bristles flex over joints and unevenness instead of behaving like a rigid scraper.
Replaceable wear element — The lath can be removed from its holder when the bristles are worn without rebuilding the surrounding frame.
Mounting holes can follow the existing support — Drilling and fixing positions are produced from the machine drawing for direct installation.
Made to the installation — Lath length, cross-section, nylon grade, trim, density, hole pattern, and end treatment can be customized.
Product Overview
Brush Lath is used where repeatable contact is needed across slots, guide rails, and pins rather than isolated hand cleaning. The active brush face clears dust, chips, and grease while the holder, shaft, plate, or hub stays outside the interference path and supports the required working width. The head must enter the narrow path and follow its full length without wedging or contacting adjacent sensors and seals.
Key dimensions start with Brush head diameter 40–800 mm and Brush head length 100–5000 mm. The structure uses a roller or conveyor arrangement so the brush can follow a moving surface or machine path. The specified interface is shaft-mounted / fixed. Nylon PA are the principal material directions in the current specification. The machine connection and working speed must come from the customer equipment specification rather than a default brush value.

Application Areas
Brush Lath is primarily mapped to Industrial Machine Cleaning. When adapting this brush to another job, confirm the workpiece surface, how debris will leave the area, and the required finish.
- Brush Lath is best suited to industrial roller cleaning, washing, dust removal, conveying, sorting, polishing, or surface treatment.
- The full-width cylinder, spiral roller, modular segment, or stationary strip brush follows plastic flakes, film, paper, glass, leather, fruit, equipment, conveyor, and processing surfaces while the fill displaces dust, fibers, water, oil, chips, coating, scale, product residue, and loose particles.
- Use this configuration when the available access supports continuous line contact across a moving belt, screen, drum, or conveyor component.
Selection Guidance
Structure fit
Match the roller and conveyor brush geometry to slots, guide rails, and pins, the available access, and powered operation. Confirm Brush head diameter 40–800 mm and Brush head length 100–5000 mm against the complete working envelope before finalizing the brush.
Contact material
Choose from Nylon PA according to the behavior of dust, chips, and grease, the surface sensitivity, and any wet, chemical, temperature, or hygiene requirements. The same material can feel very different depending on filament diameter, free trim, and fill density.
When to use another solution
For Brush Lath, use another cleaning method when dust, chips, and grease cannot be released by controlled filament contact, when slots, guide rails, and pins cannot tolerate the selected contact material, or when the access path prevents safe engagement and residue removal.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should Brush Lath be selected?
Start with industrial roller cleaning, washing, dust removal, conveying, sorting, polishing, or surface treatment, plastic flakes, film, paper, glass, leather, fruit, equipment, conveyor, and processing surfaces, and dust, fibers, water, oil, chips, coating, scale, product residue, and loose particles. Then set working width, Roller outside diameter, and Core outside diameter, choose the fill from the material and residue table, and match the mounting interface and operating condition.
Which dimensions define Brush Lath?
The primary dimensions are working width (100–5000 mm), Roller outside diameter (40–800 mm), and Core outside diameter (25–400 mm). Also provide the minimum clearance, working envelope, trim or engagement, and the existing holder, shaft, stem, thread, or handle.
Which filament or contact material is used for Brush Lath?
The primary options are Nylon PA. The final choice follows surface sensitivity, residue adhesion, wet or dry use, temperature, chemicals, conductivity, and required cutting action.
When is Brush Lath not the best cleaning method?
Brush Lath is not the first choice when combine the brush with a scraper, spray bar, vacuum, or air knife for thick sludge or heavy carryback.
What information is required to quote Brush Lath?
Send the part or machine drawing, photos of plastic flakes, film, paper, glass, leather, fruit, equipment, conveyor, and processing surfaces, working width, Roller outside diameter, Core outside diameter, and Shaft or journal diameter, the residue description, wet or dry conditions, motion or use method, temperature, preferred Nylon PA, quantity, and the existing interface or sample.
