Silicon Carbide (SiC)
Grit 36 to 1000 for aggressive deburring, oxide or residue removal, and surface conditioning.
Custom Abrasive Filament Brush Rollers
Custom abrasive brush rolls made with silicon carbide, aluminum oxide, ceramic or diamond abrasive filament for industrial cleaning, deburring and surface treatment.
We manufacture custom abrasive filament brush rollers up to 600 mm in outside diameter and 6 m in overall shaft length, with single- or double-steel-band winding for OEM and replacement supply.

An abrasive filament brush roller uses flexible nylon filaments containing abrasive grain throughout the filament. As the filament wears, new abrasive is exposed, maintaining a controlled brushing action for cleaning, oxide removal, deburring, surface conditioning and preparation across sheet, strip, plate and other wide workpieces.
Aluminum Oxide
Grit 80 to 1000 for controlled polishing and finishing, particularly on steel and copper.
Ceramic Abrasive Filament
Grit 36 to 1000 for self-sharpening cutting, hard-metal deburring and controlled finishing.
Diamond Abrasive Filament
Grit 35 to 3500 for carbide, hard metal, stone and granite; a specialty option rather than the standard choice for steel-strip cleaning.
Identify the existing grit designation or applicable grit standard because the same grit number is not automatically interchangeable between abrasive systems.
Applications in Steel Strip, Sheet and Process Lines
- Strip degreasing and rolling-residue removal
- Scale and oxide removal around pickling and annealing processes
- Surface activation before coating, galvanizing, tinning, or cladding
- Sheet, strip, and plate conditioning or polishing
- Aluminum and copper strip surface preparation
Filament polymer and roller construction are selected for the exact line position, process chemistry, contact requirement, and wet or dry conditions.

One-Piece Rollers up to 6 m Overall Shaft Length
The 6 m capability refers to overall shaft length, not automatically to the working brush face. Send the complete roller or machine drawing so the brush face, shaft and core design, journals, keyways, bearing arrangement, operating speed and support arrangement can be reviewed.
Made to Drawing for OEM and Replacement Supply
For OEM or replacement production, send a drawing or approved sample with the following information:
- Outside diameter, brush face, overall length, shaft ends, and mounting details
- Abrasive, grit, filament diameter, trim length, fill pattern, and band construction, if known
- Workpiece material, required surface result, and wet or dry operation
- Process chemical, concentration, and temperature for wet lines
- Operating speed, rotation direction, and any customer-specified runout, balance, test, or inspection requirements
- Required quantity and repeat-order forecast
Feasible inspection criteria and records are agreed before production. If the specification is incomplete, send the old roller drawing with clear photos or an approved sample.
Abrasive Filament vs. Non-Woven and Wire Brush Rollers
An abrasive filament roller uses individual polymer filaments containing abrasive grain. It provides flexible contact for cleaning, deburring and controlled surface treatment.
A non-woven abrasive roller brush uses bonded abrasive web or disc material for blending and controlled finishing.
A wire brush roll uses metal wire for more aggressive scale removal and wire-brushing duties. Spiral-wound brush rollers can use either wire or abrasive filament, depending on the application.
Installed Aluminum Rolling Mill Replacement
For an aluminum rolling mill in Shanghai, we measured the existing roller and reviewed its fill before recommending an SiC abrasive-filament replacement.
The customer ordered and installed 16 rollers of approximately 1.2 m each, demonstrating drawing- and sample-based replacement supply.
FAQ
Can the brush roll be used in a pickling or wet cleaning line?
Yes, for suitable line positions. Provide the process chemical, concentration, temperature, exposure conditions, and exact line position so the carrier nylon, abrasive and roller construction can be reviewed together.
Can you supply a replacement sleeve or reuse the existing shaft?
Yes. We can provide a complete roller, replacement sleeve, or internally welded brush package. Reusable shafts and cores may be re-bristled after the core, journals, keyways, bearing seats and mounting dimensions are inspected.
