Let's Talk About Flow-Thru Brushes


Flow-Thru brushes have been called various names, with none related to Flo from Progressive Insurance. The name is derived from the function of the brush, due to the way it is constructed; it enables liquid to flow through the bristles for specific applications.

The brushes can be attached to a wide variety of handles, blocks, or other apparatuses that dispense liquid. Flow-Thru brushes can be made from many different types of bristle material, styles, and configurations.

The fill material used in the brush can come from natural, synthetic, or metal sources. The use of the brush will determine the types of fill material and handle to be used. The most common fiber material for use in Flow-Thru brushes is natural bristle. Natural bristle works best when liquids are involved, as it does not disintegrate or leave residue and is cost effective. Synthetic materials are often used for general purpose cleaning, and some are chemical resistant. Metallic materials are used for heavy duty cleaning and cleaning other metallic surfaces.

Specific uses for Flow-Thru industrial brushes include, but are not limited to:
  • Adhesives
  • Cleaners
  • Electro-plating Touch Up
  • Enamel
  • Glue
  • Grease
  • Lubricants
  • Sealants
  • Solvents
  • Water
