Staple Set Cylinder Brush
Staple set cylinder brushes are typically lighter weight, with a plastic or metal core. These are used for material handling, such as conveying or guiding. Additional uses include cleaning, sweeping, spreading, finishing and polishing.

The customization opportunities on a staple-set brush are countless when considering hole configuration, fill type, fill density, and trim length.
Core specifications
The core is built to order, per the application.
Hole pattern
Single-row or multiple-row, staggered or straight, a programmed hole pattern is drilled into the block. Hole size and pattern can be customized.
Fill Material
Each hole is filled with a folded tuft of filament. A variety of fill material is able to be used, from natural to synthetic.

Customize your fill material
Pairing the right filament to your application plays a crucial role in the performance of your brush.
Crimped
Level
These bristles have a wave and create a bushier brush.
Straight bristles create a more compact surface.
Synthetic
Nylon
Good bend recovery, abrasion resistance, flex fatigue resistance, and chemical resistance.
Grade 6.0, 6.6, 6.12
Polypropylene
Versatile filament with excellent wet stiffness. Good bend recovery, but will take a set more easily than other material.
Polystyrene
Used widely for floor brushes, counter sweeps, and light duty applications.
Polyester
Ideal for wet applications since its water absorption is very low. Also excellent bend recovery and solvent resistance.
Natural
Horse Hair
Excellent durability. The soft to slightly stiff texture ensures gentle cleaning without scratches on polished surfaces. Produces very little static electricity.
Tampico
From the Agave plant grown in Mexico, with a natural cream color. Excellent for tasks that involve retaining liquid, scrubbing, and finishing surfaces.
