Sioux Chief 702-2 Carbon Fitting Brush 1/2 Inch Nominal

Product Description

The SIOUX CHIEF 702-2 is a carbon fitting brush with a wire handle, designed to clean the interior of 1/2-inch nominal copper fittings before soldering. The carbon bristle construction provides effective mechanical cleaning to remove oxidation, flux residue, and contaminants from fitting sockets. Plumbers and pipefitters use this brush during copper sweat-joint preparation to ensure a clean mating surface, which is critical for a sound solder joint. The wire handle provides a firm grip and durability through repeated use on the job site or in the shop.

This brush is suited for residential and light commercial plumbing applications where 1/2-inch copper fittings are used. It is a standard tool in any plumber's kit for prepping tees, elbows, couplings, and other fittings ahead of soldering. The compact size makes it easy to carry and use in tight spaces typical of rough-in and retrofit plumbing work.
