The Bristle Blaster® is a portable surface preparation tool that combines wire wheels with an ingenious accelerator bar*, to speed production. Benefits include the following:
- Excellent for spot work. Small projects such as rework, weld cleaning, etc., are faster due to no abrasive cleanup needed.
- Highly portable. Light weight and compact makes usage and storage a breeze.
- Simple to use. No need to suit up to use it.
- Quick setup. Plug in and go!
- Safe for most surfaces. Unlike a grinder, the Bristle Blaster® creates a surface profile without removing metal.
While the production speed isn’t as high as traditional abrasive blasting, the benefits of no mess and quick setup/teardown make this a very efficient tool for spot work and repairs. It is up to 10x faster than using a hand wire brush. The Bristle Blaster® tools are available in 3 power configurations:
- Electric. Requires 910 watts at 120v.
There are 3 orientation configurations for the wheels, as follows:
- Standard wheel (general purpose)
- Double wheel (faster production for larger surfaces). Note – available in electric only.
- Axial (right angle) wheel (great for reaching inside corners or other areas difficult to reach with the standard wheel). Note – available in pneumatic only.
Additional notes:
- These units create a surface profile between 2.5 and 3.5 mils.
- Wire wheels are also known as belts. Russmill Safety offers all carbon steel and stainless replacement belts.
- The standard pneumatic kit includes a dust shroud for attachment to a vacuum cleaner, for even faster clean up.
- Other belt types and machine models available – enquire.
*The Axial version does not come with an Accelerator Bar.
NOTE: Manufacturer Sourced. Usually ships in 5-7 days.
