Material
Inconel Wire
Inconel Wire is selected from its stiffness, recovery, wear, wet-service, chemical, and temperature behavior. The same material can produce different stiffness, so filament diameter, trim length, density, grade, and service conditions must also be defined.
Material Overview
Inconel Wire is a nickel-chromium alloy wire used as brush fill or a cleaning-contact element.
In a finished brush, Inconel Wire does not create a fixed stiffness by itself. The final contact depends on filament diameter, free trim, density, tuft pattern, and interference; moisture, heat, and chemicals can change the response.
