Schaefer Brush 76255 Boiler Furnace Wire Brush 1.5 in

Product Description

The SCHAEFER BRUSH 76255 is a tempered wire brush designed for cleaning boiler flues, furnace tubes, and similar combustion-system passages. The brush features stainless steel bristles arranged in a single spiral configuration around a 1.5-inch diameter head. The bristle length measures 4 inches, providing firm, even contact with tube walls during cleaning strokes. A wire loop handle extends the overall length to 42 inches, giving technicians the reach needed to service deep flue passages without additional extensions. Weighing 0.54 pounds, the tool is light enough for one-hand use during routine maintenance.

This brush is suited for residential and light commercial boiler and furnace service. Technicians use it to remove scale, soot, and debris from heat exchanger tubes and flue passages as part of annual combustion-system maintenance. The 42-inch overall length makes it practical for reaching through access panels into fireside passages. HVAC service professionals and boiler technicians are the primary installers and users of this tool.

Installation Notes

Always shut down and lock out the boiler or furnace and allow all surfaces to cool completely before inserting any cleaning tool into flue passages. HVAC technicians and boiler service pros should follow applicable NFPA and IFGC guidelines for combustion-system maintenance procedures. Use steady, controlled strokes to avoid bending bristles or damaging tube walls. Wear appropriate PPE, including eye protection, when working in or around flue passages.
