Steel cup brush with crimped steel wire on a 6 mm shank, for use on drills. With high maximum permitted revolutions. • For flexible working • For gentle cleaning • MTBWBM: brass-plated for improved corrosion protection Machine suitability: The MTBWBM technical brush is designed for use on a handheld drill with a drill chuck. 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 steel (structural steel – also termed St37, S235JR, 1.0037 and carbon steel) and cast steels, and produces optimum results on these materials. Structure and production: The fill material used for the MRBWST is high-quality brass-plated and crimped steel wire. This fill material is especially well-suited to light surface treatment and deburring work. The brush is particularly flexible. Quality: The MTBWBM provides users with the best RHODIUS tool in its category. RHODIUS TOPline products represent a maximum level of performance and quality. Applications: Cup brushes are an especially good choice for the efficient processing of larger areas, welding seams and metal plates. The brushes are used in particular for cleaning, deburring, slag removal and de-rusting work here. This RHODIUS cup brush for steel is the ideal choice for processing high-strength and high-alloy steels, structural steels, tool steels, tempered steels and high-strength metal sheets. Dimensions: The wire thickness for the MTBWBM is 0.30 mm. This cup brush is available with a diameter of 50 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.
