Custom Cleaning Brush
Strip Brush
Strip Brush provides controlled brush contact for strip cleaning and maintenance across strip contact surfaces, adjacent edges, and mounting features. Working width, brush geometry, mounting, and fill are set around the machine path and the way air, dust, and mist must be released or carried away.
Product Features
Continuous linear bristle contact cleans, guides, seals, or supports along an edge — The strip provides flexible contact where a rigid blade would not follow variation.
Low-profile channel fits narrow machine spaces — The brush can mount beside doors, conveyors, guards, openings, and product paths.
Supported fill choices cover different contact needs — Nylon and PBT provide resilient synthetic contact, horsehair supplies softer wiping, and 316 stainless wire serves compatible heavy-duty surfaces.
Straight or formed sections follow the installation — The strip can be bent or assembled into curves and rings when the channel and fill permit.
Replaceable element reduces maintenance work — A worn strip can slide or bolt out of its holder without rebuilding the bracket.
Built to the application — Length, trim, density, channel, nylon/PBT/horsehair/316 wire, formed shape, and mounting holes can be customized.
Product Overview
Strip Brush is used where repeatable contact is needed across strip contact surfaces, adjacent edges, and mounting features rather than isolated hand cleaning. The active brush face clears air, dust, and mist while the holder, shaft, plate, or hub stays outside the interference path and supports the required working width. The strip working face must reach the complete residue path while the holder remains clear of the part.
Key dimensions start with Brush head length 100–3000 mm. The structural layout follows the strip seal brush category. The specified interface is fixed / screw-fastened / adhesive-bonded. Nylon PA, PBT, Horsehair, and AISI 316 Stainless Steel Wire are the principal material directions in the current specification. The holder and installed engagement should keep the working edge in contact without excessive compression or drag.

| Cleaning duty | strip cleaning, maintenance on strip contact surfaces, adjacent edges, mounting features, working zones |
| Variant configuration | Strip Brush: strip construction with Nylon PA, PBT, Horsehair, Stainless Steel Wire fill for strip cleaning and maintenance on strip contact surfaces, adjacent edges, mounting features, and working zones. |
Application Areas
Strip Brush is primarily mapped to Door Gap Sealing. If the brush will be used on a different job, confirm the surface, debris discharge path, and acceptable finish first.
- Strip Brush is best suited to sealing, guiding, wiping, dust control, cable entry, door gap, machine guard, conveyor edge, and process-line contact.
- The straight, formed, coiled, holder-mounted, or conductive strip brush follows gaps, doors, cable openings, machine rails, conveyors, furnace openings, screens, and equipment edges while the fill displaces air, dust, mist, light, noise, insects, granules, oil, residue, and loose debris.
- Use this configuration when the available access supports continuous line contact for wiping, sealing, guiding, cleaning, or blocking gaps.
Selection Guidance
Structure fit
Match the strip seal brush geometry to strip contact surfaces, adjacent edges, and mounting features, the available access, and fixed contact. Confirm Brush head length 100–3000 mm against the complete working envelope before finalizing the brush.
Contact material
Choose from Nylon PA, PBT, Horsehair, and AISI 316 Stainless Steel Wire according to the behavior of air, dust, and mist, 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 Strip Brush, use another cleaning method when air, dust, and mist cannot be released by controlled filament contact, when strip contact surfaces, adjacent edges, and mounting features cannot tolerate the selected contact material, or when the access path prevents safe engagement and residue removal.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should Strip Brush be selected?
Start with sealing, guiding, wiping, dust control, cable entry, door gap, machine guard, conveyor edge, and process-line contact, gaps, doors, cable openings, machine rails, conveyors, furnace openings, screens, and equipment edges, and air, dust, mist, light, noise, insects, granules, oil, residue, and loose debris. Then set Custom strip length, trim height, and Channel width, choose the fill from the material and residue table, and match the mounting interface and operating condition.
Which dimensions define Strip Brush?
The primary dimensions are Custom strip length (100–3000 mm), trim height (12.7–152.4 mm), and Channel width (3.2–14.3 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 Strip Brush?
The primary options are Nylon PA, PBT, Horsehair, and Stainless Steel Wire. The final choice follows surface sensitivity, residue adhesion, wet or dry use, temperature, chemicals, conductivity, and required cutting action.
When is Strip Brush not the best cleaning method?
Strip Brush is not the first choice for rubber lips, foam, labyrinth seals, air curtains, or rigid scrapers when pressure sealing or liquid containment is required.
What information is required to quote Strip Brush?
Send the part or machine drawing, photos of gaps, doors, cable openings, machine rails, conveyors, furnace openings, screens, and equipment edges, Custom strip length, trim height, Channel width, and Filament diameter, the residue description, wet or dry conditions, motion or use method, temperature, preferred Nylon PA, PBT, Horsehair, and Stainless Steel Wire, quantity, and the existing interface or sample.
