Steel Wire Brush is a tool consisting of a brush whose bristles are made of wire, often steel wire. The steel commonly used is medium to high carbon grade and very hard and springy. Other wire brushes have bristles made of brass or stainless steel, depending on the application. Wires in a wire brush can be held together by epoxy, staples, or other binding. Wire brushes typically have either a wooden or plastic handle (for handheld use) or built into a wheel for use on angle grinders, bench grinders, pistol-grip drill motors, or other power tools.
After that A wire brush is primarily an abrasive tool, used to clean rust and remove paint. It is also used to clean surfaces and create a better conductive area for connecting electrical connections, such as between car battery posts and their connectors, should they accumulate grime and dirt. When cleaning stainless steel, Using a stainless steel bristle wire brush is recommended, as a plain carbon steel brush can contaminate the stainless steel and cause rust spots to appear. Brass bristle brushes are used on soft surfaces or when it is necessary to clean a hard surface without tampering.
After all Brass bristle brushes are also used in potentially flammable environments where non-sparking tools are required. Wire brushes are also used to clean the teeth of large animals such as crocodiles and pigs. These are widely used in surface engineering to clean castings before painting. Many surgeons recommend not using wire brushes to clean barbecue grills. In some cases, the bristles break off the brushes that accumulate in food that is later cooked on the grill. Ingestion of these bristles can result in gastrointestinal perforation.
On May 20, 2020, American food writer and grilling authority Derrick Riches has called for a ban on the manufacture and sale of wire bristle grill cleaning brushes.
