Cup brushes are a type of rotary brush characterized by their cup-shaped design. These brushes consist of a central threaded hole or arbor that allows them to be mounted on a power tool such as an angle grinder, drill, or other rotary tool. Cup brushes are widely used in various industrial applications for tasks like cleaning, deburring, surface preparation, and finishing.
Cup brushes have a circular, cup-like structure with bristles arranged in a radial pattern. The cup shape allows for focused brushing action in a confined area.
The bristles of cup brushes can be made from various materials depending on the application. Common bristle materials include steel wire, stainless steel wire, brass wire, nylon, abrasive filaments, and more.
The thickness of the wire used for the bristles can vary, and it is chosen based on the specific application requirements. Thicker wires may be used for more aggressive cleaning and deburring, while finer wires are suitable for lighter tasks.
Cup brushes are designed with a central arbor or threaded hole that allows them to be securely mounted on power tools.
Cup brushes are effective for cleaning and removing rust, paint, scale, corrosion, and other surface contaminants from metal, wood, or other materials.
