Imperial BR0184 Round Wire Chimney Brush 8 Inches

Product Description

The IMPERIAL MFG GROUP USA INC BR0184 is an 8-inch round wire chimney brush designed for cleaning flue liners, chimney tiles, and metal flue pipes in residential and light commercial heating systems. Built as a single spiral brush, it is constructed from 0.0286-inch oil-tempered wire that resists bending and maintains its shape through repeated use. The 1/4-inch NPT male thread connection allows it to attach to standard chimney brush extension rods for full-depth flue cleaning. This brush is the type of tool used by chimney sweeps, HVAC technicians, and fireplace service professionals during seasonal maintenance or pre-inspection cleaning.

This brush is suited for routine chimney sweeping on wood-burning fireplaces, gas appliances vented through masonry flues, and B-vent systems. The 8-inch round profile is matched to flue liners and round metal flue pipe of the same nominal diameter. It is most commonly used during annual cleanouts to remove creosote buildup, soot, and debris from the flue interior before the heating season begins or as part of a post-season inspection.

Key Features

• 8-inch round brush profile sized for standard 8-inch round flue liners and metal flue pipe
• Single spiral wire construction using 0.0286-inch oil-tempered wire for durability and shape retention
• 1/4-inch NPT male thread connection compatible with standard extension rod systems

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-service brush for 8-inch round flue liners, chimney tiles, and round metal flue pipe. Compatible with extension rod systems using a standard 1/4-inch NPT female thread connection.

Installation Notes

Chimney brush service should be performed by a qualified chimney sweep or HVAC technician following local codes and NFPA 211 guidelines. Ensure the appliance and flue are cool before beginning work, and seal the firebox opening to contain dislodged debris. Attach the brush to extension rods before inserting into the flue, and do not force the brush through restricted areas without first inspecting for obstructions.
