Schaefer Brush 36407 Round Chimney Brush 7 Inch Steel Wire

Product Description

The SCHAEFER BRUSH 36407 is a round chimney brush constructed with tempered steel wire bristles, designed for mechanical cleaning of flue liners, chimney tiles, and smoke pipes. At 7 inches in diameter, it fits standard residential round flue passages and connects to standard rod systems via a 1/4 inch NPSM male thread. Chimney sweeps and HVAC technicians use this brush to remove creosote buildup, soot deposits, and debris from masonry or metal-lined flues. The tempered steel wire construction provides aggressive scrubbing action on hard surfaces without deforming under repeated use.

This brush is suited for residential and light commercial chimney maintenance applications, including gas, oil, and wood-burning appliance flues. It is typically used during annual cleanings or pre-season inspections on round tile-lined or metal flue systems. The 1/4 inch NPSM male connection is compatible with standard chimney rod systems, allowing technicians to extend reach through the full length of a flue chase. It is a single-piece brush intended for hand-rod or flexible-rod driving from above or below the chimney.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this brush should be performed by a qualified chimney sweep or HVAC technician following applicable NFPA 211 guidelines for solid-fuel appliance maintenance. Before beginning, cap off fireplace openings and ensure adequate containment for debris. Thread the brush securely onto the rod system before inserting into the flue to prevent disconnection during use. Inspect the bristles for deformation or wire fatigue before each use and replace if structural integrity is compromised.
