Installation Notes

This brush is a hand tool requiring no installation. When used in surface preparation for soldering or brazing, follow applicable codes such as IFGC or IPC for joint preparation standards. Keep brass-bristle brushes separate from steel-bristle brushes to prevent cross-contamination on sensitive non-ferrous surfaces. Inspect bristles periodically and replace the brush when bristles show significant wear or splaying.
