Custom cylinder brushes and roller brushes built to your required OD, face length, shaft detail, trim, and filament specification for conveying, washing, wiping, solar cleaning, and OEM process equipment.
Request a QuoteA cylinder brush, also called a roller brush, is a rotating brush built around a shaft or core. Its working face contacts a product, belt, panel, or part for cleaning, conveying, wiping, or surface conditioning.
Choose the construction by the required contact pattern, working-face density, machine interface, operating conditions, and replacement method. Fill material is then selected separately for the workpiece and process duty.
Individual filament or wire bundles are staple-set or anchor-set into drilled holes in a plastic or metal brush body.
Brush strip is wound onto a tube or core to create open or dense helical contact for long working faces and continuous process lines.
Replaceable brush segments or stacked brush discs build the required working face while simplifying installation and worn-section replacement.
Straight, staggered, chevron, and helical row layouts can all be customized to the approved drawing. For staple-set or anchor-set cylinder brushes, tuft-hole position controls surface coverage, debris release, contact sequence, and product movement.
Straight Rows — Uniform contact across the brush face.
Staggered Rows — More even coverage with reduced open gaps.
Chevron Pattern — Directs material toward the center or sides.
Spiral / Helical Tuft Rows — Individual tuft holes follow a helical path for progressive contact along the working face; this is different from a strip brush wound around a core.
All four illustrated patterns can be customized. In the illustration, “Spiral Wound” refers to the visible spiral or helical tuft-row arrangement; it should not be confused with the separate metal-channel Spiral-Wound Brush Roll construction above.
Filament, wire, core, and body materials can be batch customized to your drawing or matched sample. Material selection is based on contact force, surface sensitivity, moisture, chemicals, temperature, wear, and cleaning duty.
Polyamide is the nylon material family. Nylon is used for washing, wiping, conveying, and product contact. Food-grade options and fine filaments down to 0.05 mm are available; 0.05 mm nylon provides soft contact for glass cleaning and other sensitive surfaces.
PP filament is commonly used for wet cleaning, produce washing, conveyor contact, and chemical-exposure applications where low moisture absorption and practical wear life are required.
Silicon carbide or aluminum oxide abrasive nylon is used for deburring, conditioning, polishing, and surface preparation. High-quality, high-performance abrasive filament from Hahl, Germany, is available. Grit selections include 80, 120, 180, 240, 320, 360, and 600, depending on the abrasive system.
Abrasive filament brush rollers
We can manufacture custom tufted or spiral-wound cylinder brushes with carbon steel wire, galvanized steel wire, 304 stainless steel wire, or copper-coated steel wire.
Tampico, horsehair, pig or boar bristle, and ostrich feather are available for softer polishing, waxing, dust removal, liquid retention, or antistatic surface cleaning.
Roller bodies and mounting components can use engineered plastic, stainless steel, galvanized steel, or brass according to the construction, shaft interface, load, washdown, and corrosion requirements.
Modular and special roller constructions can be batch manufactured to your drawing or matched sample. Segmented and split designs reduce replacement time, simplify installation, or build a longer working face from repeatable brush modules.
Toothed replaceable sections connect into a continuous brush face and are secured with end collars.
Interlocking quick-snap modules support faster assembly, replacement, and adjustment of the working face.
Square-bore sections provide positive location and stable drive when assembled on a matching square shaft.
Split-core and semicircular brush bodies install around an existing shaft, reducing disassembly where bearings, drives, or surrounding machine parts make full roller removal difficult.
Individual brush discs are stacked side by side to create the required face length and density for steel strip, sheet cleaning, polishing, and deburring lines.
We manufacture cylinder brushes for washing, cleaning, deburring, conveying, surface finishing, and equipment-specific contact. Brush construction, fill, face pattern, working diameter, and mounting are customized to the process and machine.
Cylinder brushes wash, peel, polish, wax, guide, and transfer fruit, vegetables, and other food products. Fill and brush-body materials are selected according to the product-contact and washdown requirements.
Cylinder brushes with abrasive or wire fills can clean, deburr, and condition metal parts, sheet, strip, and aluminum extrusion profiles. For pre-coating profile preparation, brush fill, construction, speed, and contact are matched to the line.
Steel-wire or abrasive-nylon roller brushes texture wood grain, remove loose fibres, sand or denib surfaces, and prepare boards, flooring, panels, and components for finishing.
Cylinder brushes remove carryback and loose debris from conveyor belts. They can also clean, guide, support, or separate products at defined positions on packaging and material-handling lines.
Soft-filament cylinder brushes remove dust and loose contamination from solar modules in robotic, rail-mounted, and vehicle-mounted cleaning systems. Brush contact is matched to the equipment and module-cleaning requirements.
Custom roller brushes provide repeatable cleaning contact in floor, glass-roof, greenhouse, facade, aircraft, and other automated washing equipment. Diameter, fill, face pattern, shaft, and mounting follow the machine design.
Complete roller assemblies and replacement brush sections can be made for automatic cow grooming and livestock scratching equipment. Working diameter, fill stiffness, shaft construction, and mounting are matched to the machine.
Each order is packed according to brush size, weight, and quantity. Long rollers, brush sections, and batch shipments are secured in wooden cases for transport.
A tufted cylinder brush secures individual filament or wire bundles in drilled holes, allowing flexible row patterns and coverage. A spiral-wound brush winds a continuous metal-channel strip around a tube or core in an open- or close-wound pattern. A modular brush uses replaceable segments or discs for easier maintenance. Choose the construction by the required contact pattern, density, debris release, machine interface, RPM, and replacement method.
Yes. Modular constructions such as zig-zag, quick-snap, and square-core brushes can allow worn sections to be replaced while retaining the shaft. Split-core designs can also be installed around an existing shaft. The shaft dimensions and segment interface must match the approved design.
Provide a drawing or measured sample with the finished OD, face length, overall length, body or core diameter, shaft or bore details, journals, keyways, threads, fill material, trim, row pattern, RPM, rotation direction, and operating environment. A marked photo can support the review, but an unmarked photo is not enough to confirm production dimensions.
Nylon and polypropylene are commonly selected for washing, wiping, conveying, and general product contact; abrasive nylon for deburring, oxide removal, and controlled surface conditioning; metal wire for stronger cleaning, rust or scale removal, and texturing; and natural fills for polishing, waxing, liquid retention, or softer contact. Final selection depends on the workpiece, required result, moisture, chemicals, temperature, speed, contact pressure, and contamination limits.
Yes, but the correct fill, core, retention method, cleanability, washdown conditions, and required material documents must be confirmed for the actual product-contact risk and customer standard. “Food grade” should refer to the approved material and intended contact position, not the complete brush by default.
Select the wire by the workpiece, corrosion environment, required cleaning strength, acceptable surface effect, and contamination limit. We can provide carbon steel, galvanized steel, 304 stainless steel, and copper-coated steel wire in confirmed constructions. State the wire diameter, straight or crimped form, density, wet or dry conditions, and maximum RPM. Carbon steel wire should not be the default for stainless steel or contamination-sensitive surfaces.
Send a drawing or measured sample with the main operating details. Large-volume production is supported for OEM and replacement projects.
