Brush filling materials

Steel Wire (STA) straight / crimped

Steel Wire is developed in co-operation with wire producers, so that it meets our special requirements. This wire is alloyed with manganese in order to increase its toughness. Result is higher tensile strength and longer lifetime of LESSMANN Brushes.

Synthetic Filaments PP, PA, PE

Synthetic Filaments are resistant to abrasion and flexible. Despite minor resistance against heat these filaments are perfect for cleaning, grinding or surface processing of metal, plastic or wood.

Available are: Polypropylene (PP), Polyamide (PA) – PA 6, PA 6.6, PA 6.12, Polyethylene (PE)

Fibre (FIB)

Fibre consists of heat resistant plant fibre, is slightly abrasive and therefore can be used for smooth grinding, above all for working on wooden surfaces. Moreover fibre is used for general cleaning and polishing work.

Encapsulated Brushes

Encapsulated brushes are ideal for an aggressive work on working pieces and for a very exact working in edges and angles. By embedding steel wire, stainless steel wire, brass coated wire or brass wire in tough plastic, the filling width always remains the same and early break of the wires can be prevented. It’s the perfect tool for long lasting and safe working. The advantages when working with encapsulated brushes are longer lifetime and harder brush effect. Furthermore the risk of injury declines when using encapsulated brushes.

Abrasive Filaments (SIC/AO)

Abrasive Filaments consist of polyamide bristles containing abrasive grits. This modern material is ideal for deburring work, fine surface finishing of plastic and metal parts as well as grinding, cleaning, polishing and structuring surfaces. With their flexible surface, brushes with abrasive filament align to the different shape of working pieces. Abrasive bristles also have grinding effects on the side, which makes them even more flexible to application possibilities. You can choose between grit (from K60 to K1000) composed of aluminium oxide (AO) and silicon carbide (SIC). Also diamond grit is available.

SECURITY

Working safely with
technical brushes

When using power-operated brushes, safety instructions must be observed (according to DIN EN ISO 1083). Pay attention to the appropriate measures when working with technical brushes.

QUALITY IS OUR FEATURE

“Simply the best” by testing

In order to maintain our high quality standards, we have integrated complex development tests and product testing routines as an integral part of our production processes.

Applications

That's what our brushes are made for

The possible uses of brushing tools in surface processing are diverse. Technical brushes are used to work on a wide variety of surfaces or to prepare them for further work steps. No matter whether industry, craftsmen or DIY enthusiasts – the industries in which Lessmann brushes are used are almost unlimited.

Typical applications are:

  • Work on weld seams with pipeline brushes
  • Deburring of e.g. cut edges with deburring brushes
  • Remove tempering paint
  • Removal of residues, rust and paint
  • Cleaning surfaces
  • Work on hard-to-reach places with e.g. shaft brushes or interior brushes
  • Structuring and polishing surfaces
