UHBW

Universal hand scratch brush with crimped wire for gentle cleaning of stainless steel, steel or non-ferrous metals (depending on wire inserts).

• Ergonomic plastic handle
• For flexible working
• For easy cleaning

Machine suitability:
The UHBW brush is used for manual brush work.

Material suitability:
Depending on the variant, this brush is designed 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.

Structure and production:
Depending on the variant, the fill material used for the UHBW is high-quality crimped steel or stainless steel wire. This is the fill material most commonly used for such tools, and is especially suited to light surface treatment and deburring work. The brush is particularly flexible.

Quality:
The hand scratch brush features an ergonomic, non-slip handle. This kind of tool can be used to achieve excellent cleaning results. The UHBW gives users a tool that easily meets the demanding requirements for quality in manufacturing and the skilled trades. To help make work even more cost-effective, RHODIUS brushes from the premium PRO line are recommended.

Applications:
This hand scratch brush can be used anywhere. Users looking to achieve superior roughing, de-rusting or cleaning results will reach immediately for this hand scratch brush. This RHODIUS hand scratch brush for stainless steel is the ideal tool for processing rust- and acid-proofed steels, high-strength and high-alloy steels, structural steels, tool steels, tempered steels and high-strength metal sheets.

Dimensions:
The wire thickness for the UHBW is 0.30 mm. This hand scratch brush is available in variants with rustproof wire, brass wire or steel wire.

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.
