Wire brush, 6-row with crimped wire, No name SZ 16 II

The 6-row wire brush with crimped wire, model SZ 16 II by No name, is designed for robust surface preparation and cleaning of metal and other hard materials. Its six staggered rows of wavy (crimped) wire filaments deliver aggressive but controlled abrasion for removing rust, scale, paint, oxidation and light burrs. The construction allows use in manual scraping and brushing operations as well as compatible machine-mounted setups where a dense, resilient wire action is needed.

Advantages

The crimped wire filaments provide a flexible, spring-like action that increases contact area while reducing filament breakage compared with straight wires. Six rows of wires offer broad coverage and uniform wear, speeding up material removal and reducing the number of passes required. The brush is suitable for repeated use under moderate load and maintains consistent performance on uneven surfaces. Its design balances cutting power and surface finish, allowing efficient cleaning without excessive scoring when used correctly.

Suitable for

• Removal of rust, scale and oxidation from metal surfaces
• Paint and coating removal prior to repainting or welding
• Deburring and edge conditioning on steel and cast parts
• General surface preparation before adhesion or finishing

Key specifications

• Brush type: crimped (wavy) wire filaments
• Row count: six rows for increased coverage
• Intended materials: metal and other hard substrates
• Typical use: manual or machine-mounted brushing
• Abrasion type: resilient, coarse brushing action

How to use

Select an appropriate mounting or handle compatible with the brush and secure it according to the tool manufacturer’s instructions. Use moderate, steady pressure and move the brush across the workpiece in overlapping passes to achieve an even result. For machine-mounted applications, ensure rotational speed and feed rate match the brush’s rated operating conditions and avoid excessive force that could reduce filament life or damage the substrate. After use, clean debris from the brush and inspect for wear; replace the brush when filament loss or deformation affects performance.

Usage recommendations

Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye and hand protection, when using wire brushes. Test on a small area first to confirm the desired surface effect. Avoid using on soft or thin materials where the coarse action could cause distortion or excessive scratching.
