It features a 2-row, 7-column fill pattern of crimped brass and stainless steel bristles, delivering consistent scrubbing action across the work surface. The curved back handle is molded from black plastic and sized for single-hand operation. At 7.25 inches overall length, it fits comfortably for close-quarters work. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and pipefitters use scratch brushes like this for flux application prep, joint cleaning, and removing light oxidation before soldering or brazing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 93APB is suited for residential and light commercial trade work where surface cleanliness directly affects joint integrity. Common applications include cleaning copper pipe ends before soldering, removing corrosion from fittings, prepping threaded connections, and general-purpose surface abrasion on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The dual-material bristle fill  -  brass and stainless steel  -  provides versatility across soft and hard base materials without cross-contamination concerns when kept dedicated to one material type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-row, 7-column crimped bristle configuration for consistent surface contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDual fill material: brass and stainless steel bristles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCurved back black plastic handle for controlled single-hand grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e7.25 inches overall length  -  compact for close-quarters pipe and fitting work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo scraper included  -  purpose-built as a dedicated scratch brush\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose hand scratch brush for trade use in HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical service applications requiring surface preparation on metal components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eScratch brushes are a consumable hand tool requiring no installation. Licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians should select bristle material compatible with the base metal being worked  -  avoid using a shared brush on dissimilar metals to prevent contamination. Always wear appropriate eye protection when using wire-type scratch brushes, as bristles can shed under load. Dispose of brushes when bristle fill shows significant splaying or loss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBristle Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Crimped\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass and Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Rows\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Columns\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Curved Back\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHandle Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Scraper\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches L x 4.5 inches W x 2 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: BRUSH RESEARCH MFG.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 93APB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BRUSH RESEARCH MFG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67907320021298,"sku":"93APB","price":42.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/008d05558fdbe8bddcdf3173e96a4b31.jpg?v=1791177022","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/brush-research-mfg-93apb-scratch-brush-2-row-7-column","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
