Custom Metal Channel Strip Brushes

BaJie Brush manufactures metal channel strip brushes according to customer descriptions, drawings, samples and application requirements. The brush can be customized in overall length, bristle height, bristle thickness and metal channel size. Different bristle and backing materials are also available depending on the working environment.

Metal channel strip brushes can be produced with different bristle densities for different applications. High-density brushes are commonly used for sealing doors, machinery and equipment, while other densities can be selected for cleaning, wiping, guiding and surface treatment. We can recommend suitable bristle materials, sizes and densities based on the customer's application and working conditions.

A retaining rod runs through the full length of the brush inside the metal channel. The bristles are folded around the retaining rod and secured inside the U-shaped metal channel during the crimping process. The retaining rod helps hold the bristles firmly in place along the entire length of the strip brush.

Bristle, Metal Channel and Retaining Rod Materials

The bristle material can be selected according to the application and working environment. Common options include nylon, polypropylene (PP), polyester (PBT), natural fibers, horsehair, brass wire, carbon steel wire and stainless steel wire. Different bristle diameters and stiffness levels are available for applications ranging from soft sealing and wiping to aggressive cleaning and surface treatment.

The metal channel is commonly made from galvanized steel or stainless steel. Galvanized steel is suitable for many general industrial applications, while stainless steel is available when better corrosion resistance is required. Different channel sizes are available according to the brush dimensions and required bristle density.

Applications of Metal Channel Strip Brushes

Metal channel strip brushes are used in many industrial applications for sealing, cleaning, wiping, guiding and protecting surfaces. The continuous metal channel provides a strong and stable base, while the bristle material and density can be selected according to the required function.

One of the most common applications is door sealing. Metal channel strip brushes can be installed along the sides, top or bottom of industrial doors, garage doors and other large doors to help reduce the entry of dust, dirt, light and insects. They are also widely used on machinery, conveyors and production lines for cleaning, wiping, guiding products and protecting moving parts.

Custom Sizes and Specifications

Metal channel strip brushes can be manufactured in different sizes according to the installation space and application requirements. The overall length, bristle height, bristle diameter, metal channel size and bristle density can all be customized.

Brush length can be produced according to customer drawings or required dimensions. Different combinations of bristle materials, metal channel materials and retaining rod materials are also available. For special applications, customers can send us a drawing, sample or working conditions, and we can manufacture the strip brush accordingly.

How to Choose a Metal Channel Strip Brush

Choosing the right metal channel strip brush depends mainly on its application and working conditions. For sealing applications, bristle height and density should be selected according to the size of the gap and the required sealing performance. For cleaning and wiping applications, the bristle material, diameter and stiffness should be selected according to the surface being cleaned and the type of dirt or debris.

Temperature, moisture, chemicals and corrosion should also be considered when selecting the bristle and metal channel materials. If you are not sure which specification is suitable, please provide the installation dimensions, application, working environment and any available drawings or photos. We can recommend a suitable brush construction based on this information.
