HRB

Wheel brush with abrasive grinding bristles for processing stainless steel, steel, wood and non-ferrous metals.

• Long lifetime
• Uniform grinding performance through permanent release of grain
• Suitable also for structuring wood

Machine suitability:
The HRB technical brush is designed for use with a handheld drill or an angle grinder with a 6 mm or M14 spindle. Please note the information about working and safety speeds. The maximum safety speed is marked on every product. This speed is important to ensure your safety in the workplace and must never be exceeded. Using adjustable-speed machines permits speeds to be adjusted to the maximum safe working speed. In addition, brushes fitted to handheld machines must have a maximum outer diameter of 180 mm.

Material suitability:
This brush has been designed especially for processing stainless steel (SST, Inox), e.g. 1.4031 (X5CrNi18-10 or 304), steel (structural steel – also termed St37, S235JR, 1.0037 and carbon steel) and cast steels, as well as aluminium and other non-ferrous metals such as copper, brass and bronze, etc. The product achieves good to very good results when used on any of the materials listed here. In addition, the brush can also be used for working on wood.

Structure and production:
The fill material used for the HRB is an abrasive nylon bristle that has been intermixed with the abrasive. This fill material offers superior elasticity and flexibility combined with a minimal risk of breakage. A uniform and even abrasive action is produced. This means that the brush is particularly suited to use on steel, non-ferrous metals and hard plastics that require only light deburring.

Quality:
The HRB gives users the best RHODIUS tool in its category. RHODIUS TOPline products represent a maximum level of performance and quality.

Applications:
Wheel brushes are the perfect choice for processing solid or hollow rods, sections, welding seams, cutting edges, toothed wheels and grooves as well as narrow surfaces. These tools are used here in particular for roughing, deburring, edge chamfering, matt finishing, structuring, de-rusting, cleaning and slag removal. This RHODIUS wheel brush is also an excellent choice for processing die-cast zinc, plastics and painted metal sheets as well as wood.

Dimensions:
This wheel brush is available in the diameters of 75 mm, 100 mm and 140 mm.

Industries:
This makes it the ideal tool for the many applications and challenges faced in car repair and metalwork shops, in plant, container, boiler and tank construction, structural steel engineering, pipeline construction and installation work.

Notice:
The brush diameter, the length of brush filler as well as fill material density are all important factors that go towards producing optimum results for surface treatment. A longer wire length will make the brush softer and more flexible. These kinds of brushes will be an excellent choice for processing structured workpieces and for ensuring non-aggressive surface treatment. As wire length shortens, the brush can be used for more aggressive types of processing. To keep surface treatment work as efficient as possible, the best option here is to select the maximum brush diameter that can be fitted to the drive system on your tool. A high fill material density is not only essential for optimum performance but is also needed to ensure a long brush lifetime. In contrast, lower fill material densities increase the flexibility of the wire and are a better choice for processing profiled surfaces.
