Optimised, slim-line geometry with brass wire for the gentle cleaning of brake calipers. • Ergonomic and non-slip handle • Gentle cleaning Machine suitability: The BSBW brake caliper brush is used for manual brush work. Material suitability: This brush has been specially designed for processing aluminium and other non-ferrous metals such as copper, brass, bronze, etc. and produces optimum working results on these materials. This brush is the ideal tool for removing stubborn brake dust and dirt on the disc brake caliper. Structure and production: The fill material used for the RHODIUS BSBW brake caliper brush is high-quality crimped 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 BSBW brake caliper brush gives users the best RHODIUS tool in its category. RHODIUS TOPline products represent a maximum level of performance and quality. Applications: This brake caliper brush is a very versatile tool. Users looking to achieve superior roughing, de-rusting or cleaning results will reach immediately for this hand scratch brush. This RHODIUS hand scratch brush is also an ideal choice for processing die-cast zinc, plastics and painted metal sheets as well as wood. Dimensions: The wire thickness for the BSBW is 0.30 mm. This hand scratch brush is available with 2 rows of brush 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.
