2.5-Inch (65mm) Twisted Cup Brush with Hex Mount
Brief Overview
This 2.5-inch twisted cup brush is built for rapid rust removal, paint stripping, and surface preparation on mild steel and cast iron. The twisted steel-wire construction delivers aggressive cutting action while maintaining control on flat and slightly contoured surfaces. Designed to mount directly onto standard angle grinders and rotary tools via the hexagonal nut arbor, this brush is an essential workhorse for fabrication shops, maintenance teams, and restoration operations. For alternative wire configurations, consider larger diameter brushes or knotted-style alternatives that may suit different applications or aggressive rust conditions.
Key Features
- Twisted Steel-Wire Construction: Individual twisted tufts provide consistent cutting action and extended brush life compared to straight-wire designs
