Custom Food Processing Industrial Brushes

Custom roller brushes for fruit and vegetable washing, grading, waxing, peeling, and food processing equipment. Built to the machine drawing and specified hygiene requirements.

Food Processing Equipment

Built for Food Processing Equipment

Food processing brushes are usually selected around the production line first: what the brush touches, how it is cleaned, how often it is replaced, and what hygiene or foreign-body controls the plant follows.

For food manufacturers, OEMs, and maintenance teams, a food grade brush needs to do more than clean or move product. It should match the equipment dimensions, material requirements, cleaning method, and the plant's HACCP, SSOP, color-coding, and replacement practices.

01

Washing

Roller brushes for fruit, vegetable, and egg washing equipment.

02

Grading and Gentle Conveying

Brush rollers guide, rotate, separate, or grade products with controlled contact.

03

Food Brush Materials & Construction

Brush Materials & Construction Options

Food-processing roller brushes can be built to the approved drawing with the required fill pattern, filament, core, shaft, and dimensions.

  • Overall Length up to 6 m

    Including both shaft ends. The bristled working length is specified separately on the drawing.

  • Filament Diameters from 0.1 mm

    PP, PBT, and PA nylon filaments, including PA6, PA610, and PA612, with diameters down to 0.1 mm.

  • One-Piece or Segmented Rollers

    A continuous brush body or separate brush sections assembled to the required working length.

  • Bores and Shaft Assemblies

    Round bores, square bores, keyways, and complete shaft-mounted assemblies made to the machine drawing.

  • Core and Shaft Materials

    Stainless steel, including SS304, galvanized steel, or another specified construction selected for the installation.

  • Existing Shaft Refurbishment

    We can rebuild the brush around a reusable customer shaft after checking its wear, corrosion, and mounting surfaces.

Common Filament Diameters for PP, PBT and PA (mm)

0.1 / 0.15 / 0.2 / 0.25 / 0.3 / 0.35 / 0.4 / 0.5 / 0.6 / 0.7 / 0.8 / 1.0 / 1.2 / 1.5

Food-contact grade and documentation are confirmed for the specified build. Filament and metal selection also account for cleaning chemicals, concentration, temperature, and washdown conditions.

Selecting Filaments for Washing and Peeling

Fruit and Vegetable Washing

Nylon diameters around 0.2–0.4 mm offer an initial selection range. Match trim length and fill density to the produce and required cleaning action.

Root Vegetable Peeling

Filament diameters greater than 0.5 mm, with trim length and fill density matched to the machine and required peeling action.

Continuous Wet Processing

Consider PA610 or PA612 for lower moisture absorption. PA6 softens as it absorbs water, so select for its wet working condition.

These are initial selection references, not fixed settings for every crop. The 0.1 mm minimum is a manufacturing option rather than a general washing recommendation.

Roller Brush Fill Patterns and Profiles

Left- and right-hand spiral layouts, wavy profiles, V-shaped (chevron) rows, full fills, and other drawing-based configurations are available. Match the pattern and profile to roller rotation, spacing, and product movement.

Segmented Roller Brushes for Fruit Washing

Separate brush sections assemble on a compatible shaft to form the required working length. Section dimensions and mounting details are made to the machine drawing.
