Custom Strip Brushes
Custom industrial strip brushes for sealing, guiding, shielding, dust control, and light wiping. Choose metal-channel, formed, or flexible-backed profiles with filament and mounting options matched to your drawing, sample, and operating environment.
Request a QuoteWhat Is a Strip Brush?
A custom strip brush is a linear industrial brush made with a metal-channel or polymer backing and a dense filament fill. Strip brushes—also called brush strips—provide a flexible working edge for sealing, guiding, shielding, dust control, and light wiping around machines, conveyors, panels, and enclosures.
For OEM and replacement projects, the visible brush is only part of the fit. Backing profile, holder or track dimensions, trim height, filament material, fill density, and mounting direction determine whether the strip installs correctly and makes the intended contact without rework.
Strip Brush Profiles and Types We Manufacture
Choose the carrier or backing profile first, then confirm the filament and trim. The backing profile controls installation; the filament trim profile controls how the working edge meets the surface.
Formed strip brushes
- Radius edges and curved machine openings
- Internal or external ring configurations
- Circular, cup, or application-shaped brush paths
- Formed to a drawing, sample, or required radius
Flexible strip brushes
- Flexible or rigid polymer-backed profiles
- PVC, PP, TPV, or TPE backing options
- Direct mounting around corners or uneven paths
- Light sealing at equipment and enclosure openings
Spiral / coil strip assemblies
- Wound strip-brush assemblies
- Special circular or helical contact paths
- Stationary or rotary installation must be identified
- Rotary builds may require a spiral or cylinder-brush review
Strip Brush Backing and Channel Materials
We provide metal channels, plastic or polymer backings, and PVC profiles matched to the mounting path, stiffness, and operating environment.
Metal channel
Rigid or formed carriers for straight sections, holders, tracks, rings, and application-shaped brush paths.
- Galvanized steel
- Stainless steel 304 / 316
- Aluminum or anodized aluminum
Plastic / polymer backing
Flexible or rigid extruded profiles for coils, curves, uneven openings, and direct equipment mounting.
- PP or nylon
- TPE, TPV, or TPU
- EPDM, silicone, or rubber
PVC profile
Application-specific PVC carriers can provide a flexible mounting base or a rigid shaped body.
- Flexible PVC mounting base
- Rigid PVC H-profile
- Custom PVC extrusion profile
Filament Materials for Industrial Strip Brushes
We provide synthetic, metal-wire, natural-fiber, carbon-fiber, and application-specific filament options for different contact and operating conditions.
Nylon / PA6 / PA66
PP / PBT / PPL
BCF yarn
Steel / stainless steel wire
Brass / phosphor-bronze wire
Tampico, sisal & horse hair
Carbon fiber
Abrasive nylon or flame-retardant filament
Filament Trim Profiles
The filament trim profile is the shape of the working edge, not the metal or polymer mounting profile. It changes how the brush enters the gap and distributes contact across the surface.
- FlatFor even contact across straight sealing, guiding, and light-wiping surfaces.
- Beveled cornerFor gradual entry when contact begins from one side or near a corner.
- NotchedFor clearing hardware, joints, or selected areas along a stepped surface.
- Slanted trimFor directional contact or a gradual change in trim height along the strip.
Common Industrial Uses
Industrial strip brushes provide a flexible contact edge where rigid seals, guides, or wipers are unsuitable. Common OEM and replacement uses include:
Conveyor guiding and product handling
Transfer-point wiping and containment
Production-line surface cleaning
Product separation and lane guiding
Concrete-block machine cleaning
Door and enclosure sealing
Elevator and escalator edge sealing
Rack and enclosure cable entry

Send a drawing, sample, holder profile, or application details. We confirm the channel fit, trim, filament, mounting method, and critical tolerances before production.
Specification Review
We confirm dimensions, materials, mounting, and application conditions from your drawing, sample, or marked photo.
Sample & Fit Confirmation
A sample or first article can be arranged to verify holder fit, trim, and material performance before volume production.
Batch Production & Inspection
Critical dimensions, trim, channel fit, and visible finish are checked before the finished brush sections are packed.
Packing for Long Strip Brush Sections
Long brush sections can be protected individually and packed in reinforced wooden cases when required.
FAQ
What information do you need to quote a custom strip brush?
Please provide the application, brush length, overall or trim height, backing or channel dimensions, filament material and diameter, mounting method, operating environment, and required quantity. A drawing, marked photo, holder profile, or existing sample helps us quote more accurately.
Can you match an existing holder, channel, or brush sample?
Yes. We can match from the holder cross-section, measured dimensions, drawing, or an existing brush sample. Metal-channel size labels such as #4, #5, or #7 can vary between manufacturers, so the size label alone does not guarantee a fit.
What is the maximum strip length per section?
Straight strip brush sections can be custom manufactured up to 3 m. Flexible strip brushes can be supplied in longer continuous lengths depending on the backing or profile construction. Final dimensions, section layout, packing, and shipping requirements are confirmed for each project.
Which backing and filament materials should I choose?
The selection depends on moisture, chemicals, temperature, static requirements, contact pressure, and workpiece sensitivity. We can recommend a metal, plastic, or PVC backing and a suitable synthetic, natural, wire, abrasive, conductive, or BCF yarn filament after reviewing the application.
Can you manufacture curved or custom trim profiles?
Yes. Strip brushes can be formed into curved, ring, coil, or other application-specific shapes, and the filament can be finished with flat, beveled, notched, or slanted trims. Please show the radius, direction, cross-section, and working edge on the drawing.
Can I approve a sample before volume production?
Yes. A sample or first article can be arranged to confirm holder fit, trim, mounting, and material performance before batch production.
What are the MOQ and production lead time?
MOQ and lead time depend on the backing construction, filament, dimensions, tooling, and order quantity. We confirm both after reviewing the specification and required delivery schedule.
How are critical dimensions inspected before shipment?
Inspection focuses on the dimensions identified on the approved drawing, including brush length, trim height, channel or holder fit, mounting dimensions, and visible finish. Please identify any critical tolerances when requesting a quote.
