Oates Wire Brush. Heavy-duty wire-bristle brush for stripping rust, paint, weld scale and stubborn baked-on residue from metal surfaces.

Description

Steel wire bristles in a wood block handle. Removes rust, mill scale, weld spatter, baked-on grease and flaking paint from metal. The trade-standard for prep work before painting, welding and surface treatment. Compatible with manual scrubbing or for pre-treatment ahead of a powered wire wheel.

Health & Safety

• Wear safety glasses or a face shield — wire brushing throws metal particles at speed
• Wear leather or cut-resistant gloves — broken wires can cut skin
• Dust mask for rust and paint particle protection
• Inspect for broken bristles before each use; discard if wires are missing or splayed

How to use

Grip firmly. Scrub the metal surface in long firm strokes, working with the grain. Don't apply excessive pressure — let the wires do the work. Brush away from the body. Hang to keep wires aligned.
