Cylindrical brush 5381-90 - 430mm medium diameter 90mm - Vikan

Cylindrical brush 5381-90 - 430mm medium diameter 90mm - Vikan

Effectively removes dust and stubborn deposits from pipes with this sturdy, one-piece molded cylindrical brush . With no junction between the handle and the brush , and thanks to its ultra-rigid fibers, this brush delivers excellent cleaning results.

Advantages & uses:

• Hygienic and seamless: the one-piece design minimizes dirt retention areas, which limits microbiological risks.
• Cleaning efficiency: the stiffer fiber ends allow for effective brushing on the internal walls of pipes or conduits.
• Versatile: suitable for cleaning equipment in the food industry, for ducts, machines, mincers, etc.
• Stress resistant: withstands high temperatures and aggressive environments (varied pH) within the limits cited.
• Food compliant: suitable for use in environments requiring HACCP/food contact criteria.

Use & Care Information:

• Before use, rinse the brush to remove any manufacturing residue.
• Use a suitable handle if necessary to access deep areas.
• After use, clean with hot water (within the permissible temperatures), possibly in an autoclave (up to 121°C), according to hygiene recommendations.
• Periodically check the condition of the fibers: if they are too worn or deformed, replace the brush.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is this brush suitable for food contact?
   Yes - the brush is made with materials certified to comply with EU regulations (EC 1935/2004) and FDA standards (CFR 21).
2. Can it be used in an autoclave?
   Yes, up to 121°C depending on conditions.
3. What is the tolerated pH range?
   From pH 2 to pH 10.5.
4. Can I use it in pipes with a diameter less than 90 mm?
   This is not recommended - the brush may get stuck or rub excessively against the walls. It is better to use a brush of the correct diameter.
5. Is it compatible with all Vikan handles?
   Yes, it is designed to fit the handles in the Vikan range.
6. What is the typical lifespan?
   It depends on usage (frequency, pressure applied, abrasiveness of the environment). In normal use, the fibers remain effective for many cycles if well maintained.
7. Why choose the “medium” version?
   The “medium” rigidity offers a good compromise: firm enough to remove residue, but without being too abrasive, limiting wear on internal surfaces.
