Schaefer Brush 43212 Flue Brush 1-1/4 in Dia 7-1/2 in Oal

Product Description

The SCHAEFER BRUSH 43212 is a double stem, single spiral flue brush designed for cleaning flue passages, vents, and combustion chamber tubes in heating systems. The brush head is constructed from tempered steel wire, providing durable scrubbing action against carbon deposits, soot, and scale buildup. It measures 1-1/4 inches in diameter with a brush length of 4-1/2 inches and an overall length of 7-1/2 inches. The 1/4 inch male NPSM connection allows attachment to standard extension rods for deeper reach. HVAC technicians and service professionals use this tool as part of routine furnace and boiler maintenance.

This flue brush is suited for residential and light commercial heating system maintenance, particularly where smaller diameter flue passages, heat exchanger tubes, or venting components require mechanical cleaning. The tempered steel wire construction handles the abrasive demands of removing hardened deposits from steel and cast iron surfaces. It is typically used during annual tune-ups, combustion efficiency inspections, and pre-season heating system servicing.

Installation Notes

This brush is installed and used by HVAC technicians and heating system service professionals. Always shut down and allow the heating appliance to cool completely before beginning any flue or venting service work. Secure all extension rod connections before inserting the brush into the flue passage to prevent disconnection inside the system. Work in a well-ventilated area and use appropriate respiratory protection when disturbing soot or combustion byproduct deposits.
