Brush Type
Custom End Brushes
Choose an end brush when concentrated rotating or reciprocating tip contact is needed inside a recess, pocket, hole entrance, weld detail, or other localized area.
Type Overview
End brushes carry a compact tuft of wire or abrasive filament at the end of a stem or small holder. The working tips enter confined areas that a wheel or cup brush cannot reach, and the tuft may remain straight, flare under rotation, or be shaped for a specific pocket.
Head diameter, tuft length, filament construction, stem or shank, and available clearance determine the contact pattern. The brush should work with the filament tips rather than excessive side pressure, which can spread the tuft, increase fatigue, and reduce precision.
Key Customization Dimensions
| Head diameter | 12–20 mm |
|---|---|
| Head or working length | 20–25 mm |
| Handle or support length | 0 mm |
| Mounting interface | Fixed |
| Source scope | Merged product configuration records |
Common Configurations
Straight crimped end brush
A compact flexible tuft for light rust, residue, and general cleaning in recesses.
Knotted or bundled end brush
A firmer concentrated tuft for heavier localized deposits where the surface permits aggressive contact.
Abrasive-filament end brush
Grit-bearing polymer filament for precision deburring and controlled conditioning.
Flared end brush
The tuft opens to contact a larger pocket or shoulder after entering through a smaller access area.
Miniature shank-mounted brush
Small diameters and precision shanks for tools, molds, bores, and detailed components.
Material Selection Guidelines
Brass wire
Softer metallic tip contact for suitable threads, recesses, and non-ferrous workpieces.
Stainless steel wire
Corrosion-resistant cleaning and localized removal on compatible surfaces.
Carbon steel wire
Aggressive cleaning on ferrous parts where contamination requirements permit.
Abrasive nylon
Controlled deburring and finish adjustment with lower aggression than wire.
Technical Considerations
Provide the recess or hole geometry, access diameter and depth, workpiece material, residue or burr, required finish, brush diameter and tuft length, shank or thread, tool clearance, customer-supplied motion data, and quantity.
