PELCO® Pro Cleaning Brushes

over 30 different styles available
   

A complete selection of specially designed, high quality cleaning brushes for all cleaning tasks in your lab. With this wide choice of cleaning brushes, made in the U.S.A., you will find the perfect brush to clean glassware, baths, ducts, pipes, hoses, ultrasonic cleaners, instruments, etc. Brushes are available for both delicate and heavy cleaning tasks with sturdy polypropylene bristles, non-scratching cleaning with soft closed cell polypropylene and large area cleaning with non-woven polypropylene open fiber pads.

Most brushes are constructed with galvanized steel wire and polypropylene handles. Brushes with the narrower galvanized wire are designed to be bent to reach difficult places or to comply with the form of the container which needs to be cleaned.
