Tubular systems are used in day to day operations in various industries and commerce. These enclosed spaces include hydraulic systems, heat exchangers, condensers, chillers, and more; they facilitate the movement of gases, liquids, and other materials from one location to another. Nonetheless, interior walls of tubes and pipes may get coated with scale, residue, and debris, thus lowering flow rates and posing performance problems. But this is where using specialized tube cleaning brushes is so crucial for cleaning and performance optimization. Tube brushes are intended for contact with tubes, pipes, and other hard-to-reach areas inside adjacent spaces. They are made from nylon, stainless steel or brass filaments which are twisted in such a way to form a long thin brush. Such features as the type of filament, stiffness, length, diameter and other related features can be adjusted to suit the size and type of the tubes that are being cleaned. Cores are made strong and filament tips are

Strip brushes are a universal type of brush that is used for sealing, wiping, cleaning and other industrial uses. This type of brush has a flat and slim base with bristles or other elements positioned perpendicular to the surface, allowing cleaning of narrow areas and offering an even contact. Read this blog post to learn more about strip brushes: what they are, their components and materials, types and sizes, and applications that can benefit from strip brushes. What Are Strip Brushes? Strip brushes have a flat base strip which is made of plastic, wood or metal with bristles or other filaments mounted perpendicular to the lateral side of the strip. The flexible base enables it to hug surfaces and reach spots that would otherwise be hard to access. On the other hand, the bristle material that protrudes to a greater extent can differ considerably and offers the actual wiping, sealing, cleaning or other features.    Strip Brushes   Strip Brush Components and Materials Most bases c

Tubes and pipes are used for the transportation of fluids, gases, fine powders and bulk solids in industries, commercial and residential buildings and structures inclusive of plumbing systems. However, over some period of time, these tubes may accumulate deposits and hence hinders the smooth flow of fluids and may lead to major issues if not remedied. This is where tube cleaning brushes come in extremely handy. Tube cleaning brushes are brushes that are designed for cleaning the internal surfaces of tubes and pipes in order to remove all kinds of deposits. They are produced in a variety of sizes, bristle material and arrangement for use on pipes as small as a quarter inch in diameter and as large as several feet in diameter. Stiff bristle brushes can remove scales while soft bristles are useful in removing the greases and light residues.   Tube Cleaning Brushes Some key benefits of regular tube brushing include: Some key benefits of regular tube brushing include: Sustaining f

Wire brushes are essential cleaning tools that are employed in a wide range of applications ranging from the elimination of rust and dirt to cleaning of food processing utensils. Among them, there is one specialized type that is considered to be above all others – the twisted-in wire brush. In this blog post I am going to explain why these brushes are so efficient and how strip brushes fit into the process. What Do Twisted-In-Wire Brushes Mean? Twisted in wire brush are distinguished by construction. As the name suggests the wires that are used to make the bristles are wound or twisted around the shaft of the brush. This is different from crimped wire brushes where the individual wires are bent into shape. This twisting enables the wires to be longer and thinner, more flexible than the other. So when the brush touches the surface, the wires can penetrate areas that larger bristles cannot get to, and the added flexibility makes the wires move side to side, shaking off any encrus
