Custom Ring Brushes

BaJie Brush manufactures custom ring brushes by forming metal channel strip brushes into complete circular shapes. Depending on the design, the bristles can face inward or outward to suit different sealing, cleaning, wiping and guiding applications.

Ring brushes can be manufactured in different diameters, bristle heights, bristle materials and metal channel sizes. The dimensions and brush density can be customized according to drawings, samples or specific application requirements.

Inside and Outside Disk Brushes

Ring brushes are generally available in two configurations according to the direction of the bristles. When the bristles face inward toward the center of the ring, the product is commonly called an inside disk brush. When the bristles face outward, it is commonly called an outside disk brush.

Inside Disk Brush

Inside disk brushes have bristles facing toward the center of the ring. They are suitable for applications where the brush needs to contact, clean, seal or guide a shaft, pipe or other component passing through the center of the brush.

Outside Disk Brush

Outside disk brushes have bristles facing away from the center of the ring. They are commonly used where the outer edge of the brush needs to provide cleaning, wiping, sealing or contact with surrounding surfaces.

Bristle and Metal Channel Materials

Ring brushes can be manufactured with different bristle materials according to the working environment and application. Common options include nylon, polypropylene (PP), PBT, horse hair, abrasive filament, brass wire, stainless steel wire and other materials.

The metal channel is commonly made from galvanized steel or stainless steel. Bristle material, filament diameter and channel material can be selected according to requirements such as flexibility, wear resistance, temperature, corrosion resistance and cleaning performance.

Custom Sizes and Specifications

Ring brushes are custom manufactured according to the required dimensions. Important specifications include the inside diameter, outside diameter, bristle height, metal channel size, bristle material and bristle density.

For inside disk brushes, the inside diameter is particularly important because the bristles contact the shaft, pipe or component passing through the center. For outside disk brushes, the outside diameter and required working contact are important considerations.

For small ring brush applications, we can manufacture inside disk brushes with an inside diameter as small as 19 mm. Larger diameters and other special dimensions can also be customized according to the application.

Ring Brush Applications

Ring brushes are used in industrial equipment and machinery for sealing, cleaning, wiping, guiding, shielding and surface contact. Their circular construction makes them particularly suitable for applications involving shafts, pipes, openings and other round components.

Depending on the application, the bristles can be directed inward or outward and the brush dimensions, density and materials can be adjusted to provide the required contact pressure and flexibility.

How to Choose a Ring Brush

The correct ring brush depends on the direction of brush contact, working dimensions and application conditions. Inside disk brushes are suitable when the bristles need to contact a shaft, pipe or component passing through the center, while outside disk brushes are suitable when brush contact is required around the outside of the ring.

Bristle material, filament diameter, bristle density and bristle height should also be selected according to the required flexibility, cleaning force, wear resistance, temperature and working environment.

Custom Ring Brush Manufacturer

BaJie Brush manufactures ring brushes according to customer drawings, samples and application requirements. Both inside disk brushes and outside disk brushes can be customized with different diameters, bristle materials, bristle heights, densities and metal channel materials.

If you are unsure which construction or material is suitable for your application, send us the working dimensions and application information, and we can recommend a suitable ring brush design.

How to Order a Custom Ring Brush

To manufacture the correct ring brush, please provide the basic specifications when requesting a quotation. These normally include:

  • Inside diameter (ID)
  • Outside diameter (OD)
  • Bristle direction: inward or outward
  • Bristle material
  • Bristle height
  • Metal channel material
  • Required quantity

A drawing, photo or existing sample is also helpful, especially for ring brushes with special dimensions or installation requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between an inside disk brush and an outside disk brush?

An inside disk brush has bristles facing inward toward the center of the ring, while an outside disk brush has bristles facing outward. The appropriate design depends on where the brush needs to make contact with the workpiece or equipment.

What bristle materials are available for ring brushes?

Ring brushes can be manufactured with nylon, PP, PBT, horse hair, abrasive filament, brass wire, stainless steel wire and other bristle materials. The appropriate material depends on the application and working environment.

What is the minimum diameter of an inside disk brush?

We can manufacture inside disk brushes with an inside diameter as small as 19 mm, depending on the brush construction and required specifications. Other diameters can be customized according to customer requirements.

Can you manufacture ring brushes according to drawings or samples?

Yes. We can manufacture custom ring brushes according to customer drawings, samples or required dimensions. Customers can also provide photos and application details if a complete drawing is not available.
