Steel strip brushes perform many functions in a manufacturing or production environment. Steel strip brushes feature a formable metal structural element known as a channel base, and steel wire brush fill that can be varied by trim length, density, and wire diameter- all of which affect the aggressiveness of the brushing action.

Channel base material options for steel brush strip lengths include:
- Galvanized Steel – most economical
- Stainless Steel – resists corrosion
- Brass – low electrical resistance
- Aluminum – resists corrosion, lightweight
Steel Wire: Attributes and Applications
Steel wire strip brushes are suitable for a wide variety of applications and are generally the most economical of the different metal brush options. Steel wire is the hardest of the commonly offered brush wires, providing a high fatigue life and durable cutting action. Steel wire is most appropriate for work on steel and iron work pieces, but may also be used on wood, concrete, and other softer metals. As a general guideline, the softer the material coming in contact with the brush strip, the more likely that a steel wire brush will cut into and remove base material in addition to any targeted coating or contamination.
A brush strip filled with steel wire can function as a brush seal on a piece of equipment, a flexible shield against dust, light, heat, or intrusion into a point of operation. Mounted to contact a conveyed product, steel strip brushes can function as a product hold-down, an applicator of dry coatings, or as a static or driven scrub brush to remove loose material. Inserted into a paddle wheel style cylinder assembly for conveyor cleaning applications, steel brush strips allow you to perform brush refills in-house. When wrapped around an auger-shaft or added to the flights of an auger screw, a steel wire filled strip brush becomes a flexible flight capable of moving product without damage.
Heat and Moisture:
Steel brush wire is appropriate for applications in which constant operating temperatures approach up to 275° F, but can be used where the strip brush will come in contact with higher temperatures for shorter periods of time. When ambient temperatures will exceed 275°F, stainless steel wire strip brushes should be considered. Stainless brush strips should also be considered for wet application situations when corrosion can be a factor.
The following types of steel wire can be incorporated into your brush seals and strip brushes:
