Tampico Fiber

Tampico is a plant leaf fiber associated with Agave species and used as brush fill for dusting, light scrubbing, liquid spreading and polishing compound work. Direct data: Fiber diameter: 200–500 µm; Use temperature: up to 120°C; Water absorption: high; Brush stiffness: medium; Chemical resistance: good with mild acids and alkalis.

Wet scrubbing, polishing-compound application, dusting and floor or deck cleaning with an absorbent plant fiber.

Tampico Fiber 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.

Compare Tampico Fiber with Compare with horsehair for softer dry contact, sisal for firmer plant-fiber scrubbing and nylon for more uniform recovery. Change material when wet stiffness, temperature, chemical resistance, conductivity, particle shedding, or surface marking becomes the limiting factor.
