Non-woven brush, wheel, and hand pad product line

Non-woven abrasive brushes and wheels are a type of abrasive tool that is designed to remove material from metal surfaces by using an abrasive material, such as such as aluminum oxide and silicon carbide.

The non-woven material used in these brushes is typically made from synthetic fibers such as nylon, polyester, or polypropylene. These fibers are bonded together with a resin or adhesive to create a dense, uniform material that is strong and durable.

Non-woven abrasive brushes and wheels are used in a variety of applications, including cleaning, deburring, polishing, and surface preparation. They can be used on a wide range of materials, including metal, wood, plastics, and composites.

  • Automotive 
  • Aerospace 
  • Medical device 
  • Press Plate & printed circuit board cleaning and deoxidizing
  • Construction industries

When quality non-woven abrasive material is used, fresh new grit is continuously introduced to keep a consistent surface conditioning tool through out the life of the abrasive brush.

Another advantage of non-woven abrasive brushes is that they can be used with a variety of different machines, including angle grinders, drills, and hand-held tools. They are also available in a range of shapes and sizes to suit different applications, including discs, wheels, cups, and brushes.
