Material
Aluminum Wheel Core
Aluminum Wheel Core is evaluated as a brush component material rather than as filament. Choose the material by reviewing the load, component geometry, connection, operating environment, and cleaning method.
Material Overview
An aluminum wheel core is the machined or formed structural center that retains filament or media and transmits rotation.
In a finished brush, Aluminum Wheel Core is controlled by section geometry, support, attachment, working load, environmental exposure, and the cleaning method used on the assembly. A complete component specification includes the material, geometry, connection, mating parts, tolerances, and acceptance criteria.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the key properties of Aluminum Wheel Core brush material?
An aluminum wheel core is the machined or formed structural center that retains filament or media and transmits rotation. Direct data: Density: 2.70 g/cm³; Common alloys: 6061, 6063, 6082; Core diameter: 20–500 mm; Use temperature: up to 150–200°C; Bore tolerance: H7/H8 available.
Where is Aluminum Wheel Core used in cleaning brushes?
Wire, abrasive and buffing wheels that need a machined bore, low rotating mass and controlled balance.
How does filament geometry change Aluminum Wheel Core brush stiffness?
Aluminum Wheel Core changes brush stiffness through filament diameter, free trim, density, crimp, and contact. Use finer filament and longer trim for conformable contact; use coarser filament, shorter trim, or higher density for stronger displacement or cutting.
When should Aluminum Wheel Core be replaced by another material?
Compare Aluminum Wheel Core with Steel core, stainless core, engineering-plastic core. Change material when wet stiffness, temperature, chemical resistance, conductivity, particle shedding, or surface marking becomes the limiting factor.
