INOX-TOTAL

Particularly suitable for work on stainless steel.

In addition to brushes with a stainless steel filament, PFERD also offers brushes for work on stainless steel (INOX) with the INOX-TOTAL type.

These are characterized by the fact that all parts of the brush are made of stainless steel in quality 1.4310 (V2A), which ensures optimum corrosion protection. They are particularly well-suited to use in extremely critical environments. The stainless steel wire (INOX) used withstands temperatures up to 450°C.

The INOX-TOTAL brushes are ideal for brushing work such as deburring, cleaning, and removing heat discolouration and oxide layers.

How to avoid common mistakes

Causes of corrosionSolution
Structure has changed because too much heat has built up.Avoid heat using the following methods:
  • Lower rotational speed
  • Reduced contact pressure
  • Oscillating brushing
Contact between the workpiece and the parts of the brush that are made of steel.
  • Use INOX-TOTAL type brushes.
  • Avoid contact between the face plates and workpiece.
  • Use end brushes with plastic protection.
Mixture of work on steel and stainless steel (INOX).
  • Do not use brushes that have already been used to work on steel, copper or other metals.
  • Do not work on steel in the vicinity of stainless steel (INOX) applications.
Wire particles introduced into the surface.
  • Avoid a high contact pressure.
  • Use a low rotational speed.
Stock removal rate is too lowRemoval of deep structural changes
  • Extending the brushing time.
  • Use of grinding tools.

Stainless steel (INOX) – a material with a successful future ahead of it

The patenting of the first rust-resistant steel at the beginning of the previous century marked the dawn of the enduring success of this new material. After all, rust gradually destroys iron and steel…
