The brush head measures 1.5 inches in diameter and 3 inches in length, with a 15-inch overall length that provides reach into deep or confined bores. Fill material is brass, which is well-suited for cleaning softer metals and surfaces where ferrous wire could cause contamination or damage. The 0.375-inch brass shank provides rigid support for consistent scrubbing action. Plumbers, HVAC technicians, and pipefitters use this type of brush for clearing scale, flux residue, debris, and light corrosion from tube and pipe interiors during service and installation work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tube brush is appropriate for use in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC, and refrigeration applications where tube cleaning is required before brazing, soldering, or fitting installation. The single-spiral fill pattern delivers even contact around the full bore diameter. The 15-inch handle length allows access to tube sections that short-handle brushes cannot reach. Brass fill is the standard choice when working with copper tubing to avoid cross-contamination from steel or carbon-based bristles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBrass fill material safe for use on copper and non-ferrous tubing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.5-inch brush diameter for standard tube and pipe bore sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3-inch brush length for thorough cleaning coverage along the bore\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e15-inch overall length provides extended reach into deep tube sections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-spiral construction ensures uniform bristle contact with tube walls\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.375-inch brass shank for secure chuck or handle mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard long-handle tube brush for cleaning 1.5-inch diameter tube and pipe bores in plumbing, HVAC, and refrigeration service applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA licensed plumber or HVAC technician typically uses this brush during tube preparation before soldering or brazing connections. Ensure the system or line being cleaned is depressurized and isolated before inserting the brush into any tube or fitting. The brush shank is compatible with standard drill chucks for power-assisted cleaning. Inspect bristles for wear before use and replace the brush when fill material shows significant deformation or loss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrush Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrush Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpiral Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Single\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Bristle Spirals\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.008 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.188 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 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: SCHAEFER BRUSH\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14618\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SCHAEFER BRUSH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543117726002,"sku":"14618","price":17.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f3fc7e9f94e8685963ab30e2eec70c89.jpg?v=1785915874","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/schaefer-brush-14618-brass-wire-tube-brush-1-5in-x-3in-15in-oal","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
