Forney Industries Inc 70521 Ss Wire Scratch Brush 13.75 in

Product Description

The FORNEY INDUSTRIES INC 70521 is a stainless steel wire scratch brush built for demanding cleaning and surface prep tasks. Measuring 13.75 inches in overall length, it features solidly embedded stainless steel bristles arranged in 3 rows of 19, with a wire diameter of 0.013 inches. The brush delivers aggressive scrubbing action suited to removing rust, scale, weld spatter, and surface contaminants. A wood handle provides a secure grip during use, and a pre-drilled hang hole allows convenient storage. This tool is commonly used by welders, maintenance technicians, food service staff, and trade professionals working in environments where corrosion resistance in the brush itself is required.

This scratch brush is well suited for surfaces exposed to high humidity, including cookout grills, dairy processing equipment, and restaurant kitchen surfaces. The stainless steel bristle construction resists corrosion from moisture, grease, and cleaning chemicals, making it a practical choice in food-service and agricultural settings where carbon steel brushes would deteriorate. It is also used in welding and fabrication shops for post-weld cleanup and bead inspection on stainless steel base materials, where cross-contamination from carbon steel bristles must be avoided.

Installation Notes

This is a hand tool requiring no installation. Inspect bristles before each use and replace the brush if bristles are bent, loose, or significantly worn, as degraded bristles reduce effectiveness and can become a contamination or safety hazard. When using on food-contact surfaces, follow applicable sanitation guidelines and industry hygiene standards. Store in a dry location to extend handle and bristle service life.
