Wooster Brush 1147-4 Chip Paint Brush 4 in Natural Hog

Product Description

The WOOSTER BRUSH 1147-4 is a 4-inch chip brush designed for applying paints, solvents, adhesives, and coatings in trade and light industrial applications. It features natural hog bristles, which hold and release liquid coatings consistently across a range of viscosities. The beavertail plastic handle measures 5.625 inches and provides a secure grip during extended use. At 0.288 pounds, the brush is lightweight enough for repetitive application work. Painters, contractors, and maintenance technicians reach for this style of chip brush when a disposable or low-cost applicator is appropriate for the job at hand.

This chip brush is suited for residential and commercial painting tasks where a natural bristle applicator is preferred. Common uses include applying contact cement, flux, solvents, stains, and oil-based coatings. The 4-inch width covers larger flat surfaces efficiently while still fitting into corners and along trim lines. It is a standard tool on job sites, in maintenance departments, and in shops where quick, low-waste application is the priority.

Key Features

• 4-inch brush width for broad, efficient coverage on flat surfaces
• Natural hog bristles for consistent hold and release of oil-based coatings and solvents
• Beavertail plastic handle at 5.625 inches for a firm, controlled grip
• Lightweight construction at 0.288 pounds reduces hand fatigue during repetitive tasks

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose chip brush compatible with oil-based paints, contact cements, solvents, and similar liquid coatings. Natural hog bristles are not recommended for use with waterborne latex coatings, where synthetic bristle brushes perform better.

Installation Notes

This brush is installed by hand with no tools required. Before use, flick the bristles firmly to remove any loose fibers that could contaminate the coating surface. When working with solvent-based materials or adhesives, ensure the work area is properly ventilated and appropriate PPE is worn per safety data sheet requirements. Dispose of or clean the brush immediately after use per local regulations for the coating or solvent applied.
