Nylon Brush SIT 170 mm 0298 CO170 — SIT nylon brush, 170 mm

Nylon Brush SIT 170 mm 0298 CO170 is a round nylon brush with a 170 mm working diameter designed for surface cleaning, light deburring and finishing on a variety of materials. The brush features flexible nylon filaments that provide gentle abrasion and consistent contact with the workpiece, making it suitable for maintenance tasks and preparatory surface treatment. It is intended for use with rotary tools and bench grinders that accept 170 mm brush accessories.

Advantages

The nylon construction resists wear and offers a balance between flexibility and aggressiveness for controlled material removal. The 170 mm diameter gives a broad working area for faster coverage compared with smaller brushes, while the round shape adapts well to curved and irregular surfaces. Filaments recover their shape after contact, reducing the risk of surface damage and extending brush life under normal operating conditions.

Suitable for

• Surface cleaning of metal, wood and composite materials
• Light deburring and edge blending
• Removal of paint residue, rust scale and oxidation
• Surface finishing prior to painting or coating
• General maintenance and preparation tasks in workshops

Key specifications

• Working diameter: 170 mm
• Brush type: round nylon filament brush
• Filament material: nylon (flexible synthetic filaments)
• Intended mounting: rotary tools and bench grinders that accept 170 mm accessories
• Typical applications: cleaning, light deburring, finishing

How to use

Secure the brush to a compatible rotary tool or bench grinder following the machine manufacturer's instructions and ensure the mounting is tight and concentric. Set the tool speed within the recommended range for nylon filament brushes and begin work with light pressure, allowing the filaments to contact the surface without forcing excessive load. Move the brush evenly across the workpiece, maintaining consistent motion to avoid heat buildup and local overworking of the material. Inspect the surface frequently and switch to a different brush grade or abrasive method if greater aggressiveness is required.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection, gloves and respiratory protection when working with surface contaminants. Avoid applying excessive lateral force and do not exceed safe operating speeds specified by the rotary tool manufacturer. Store the brush in a dry place away from solvents and high temperatures to maintain filament integrity.
