Wooster Brush F5117-1 Chip Paint Brush 1 Inch

Product Description

The WOOSTER BRUSH F5117-1 is a 1-inch chip brush designed for applying paint, solvents, adhesives, and coatings in trade and general maintenance applications. It features natural hog bristles set in a wood handle, offering a traditional, disposable-style brush suited for tasks where a low-cost, single-use or limited-use tool is appropriate. The natural bristle construction holds and releases oil-based coatings, varnishes, and solvents effectively. At 0.04 pounds, this brush is lightweight and easy to handle during detailed or overhead work. It is a standard chip brush format commonly used by painters, contractors, maintenance techs, and facilities personnel.

This brush is well suited for residential and commercial maintenance environments where quick coating application, solvent spreading, or surface prep work is required. Typical uses include applying contact cement, flux, epoxy, rust inhibitors, and general-purpose paints in areas where brush cleanup time or cost is a factor. The compact 1-inch width gives good control in tight corners, around fasteners, and along edges or trim lines.

Installation Notes

This brush is intended for hand-application of coatings and solvents by painters, maintenance technicians, and contractors. Always confirm the bristle and handle materials are compatible with the specific solvent or chemical being applied before use. Natural bristles are not recommended for use with water-based latex paints, as moisture can cause swelling and bristle splaying. Dispose of or clean the brush promptly after use in accordance with local VOC and waste disposal regulations.
