Schaefer Brush 13010 Brush Handle Extension 36 Inches

Product Description

The SCHAEFER BRUSH 13010 is a galvanized steel brush handle extension designed to increase reach when cleaning flues, vents, boiler tubes, and similar confined passages. Measuring 36 inches in overall length and 0.5 inches in diameter, it connects via a 1/4-28 male thread on one end and accepts a 1/4-28 female connection at the other, allowing multiple extensions to be linked in series or attached directly to compatible brushes. The galvanized steel construction resists corrosion in damp or sooty service environments. HVAC technicians, chimney sweeps, and boiler service professionals use this extension as a standard part of their cleaning toolkit.

This extension is suited for residential and light commercial applications where standard brush rods fall short of the required reach. It is specified for use with steel rods and compatible brush heads that accept a 1/4-28 threaded connection. Typical installations include gas appliance flue cleaning, boiler tube brushing, and vent stack inspections where the work depth exceeds the length of a single rod. The extension can be added incrementally to existing rod sets to achieve the needed insertion depth.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed for use with steel rods and brush heads featuring a 1/4-28 threaded connection. Suitable as an OEM-style extension for flue and vent brush sets that use 1/4-28 male and female threaded steel rod systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by HVAC technicians, boiler service professionals, or chimney service contractors. Before inserting the extension into any flue or vent system, confirm the appliance is shut down and cooled, and that gas supply or electrical power to the unit is isolated. Hand-tighten threaded connections firmly to prevent separation inside the passage. Do not force the rod assembly through obstructions, as this can damage the flue lining or bend the extension shaft.
