Brooms and Brushes<br />

BROOM AND BRUSH CONSTRUCTION<br />

Surface textures and types of dirt vary throughout a facility, so<br />

choosing the correct broom and brush construction is important<br />

for maximum cleaning effectiveness. Rubbermaid Commercial<br />

Products’ brooms and brushes offer a complete range of blocks<br />

and fill types to clean virtually any surface.<br />

BLOCK STRUCTURES<br />

STRUCTURAL FOAM<br />

BLOCK<br />

Resists cracking, splitting,<br />

warping, and rotting. Helps<br />

prevent bacteria growth. Two<br />

threaded holes provide long<br />

product life.<br />

WOOD BLOCK<br />

A classic look that resists<br />

moisture and helps prevent<br />

cracking. Two threaded holes<br />

provide long product life.<br />

BLOCK AND FILL DESIGN<br />

Staggered hole pattern<br />

prevents gaps in fill material<br />

for better performance. Dense<br />

fill leads to longer brush life.<br />

Flagged tips pick up fine dust<br />

and dirt particles. Flared ends<br />

allow access to corners.<br />

CLEANING<br />

FILL—NATURAL<br />

HORSEHAIR<br />

Very durable with a naturally<br />

flagged tip; good shear/break<br />

resistance. Will not scratch<br />

the Agave plant. Durable and<br />

retains shape after continual<br />

use. High resistance to heat,<br />

alkali, solvents, and acid. Can<br />

be used wet or dry.<br />

MATERIAL HANDLING<br />

FILL—SYNTHETIC<br />

NYLON<br />

Very durable with excellent<br />

abrasion resistance, shear/<br />

break strength, and bristle<br />

bend recovery. Will not stain,<br />

discolor, or absorb odors.<br />

Can be used wet or dry and<br />

resistant to alkalis and most<br />

solvents.<br />

POLYSTYRENE<br />

Extremely durable. Excellent<br />

bristle bend recovery and<br />

shear/break strength. Resistant<br />

to water, oils, and solvents.<br />

Not for sweeping compounds<br />

or oily surfaces.<br />

POLYPROPYLENE<br />

Very durable with good<br />

abrasion resistance and shear/<br />

break strength. Will not stain,<br />

discolor, or absorb odors.<br />

Resistant to solvents, acids,<br />

oils, fungus, and bacteria<br />

growth. Can be used wet<br />

or dry.<br />

WASHROOM<br />

FILL—WIRE/METAL<br />

BRASS<br />

Provides a high degree of<br />

abrasion without severely<br />

scratching hard surfaces.<br />

Will not rust. Best for heavy<br />

cleaning of metal or brick<br />

surfaces that cannot sustain<br />

heavy scratches.<br />

STAINLESS STEEL<br />

Provides a high degree of<br />

abrasion and wear resistance.<br />

Resists chemicals and rust.<br />

Excellent bend recovery. Best<br />

for aggressively removing<br />

residue from metal or other<br />

resilient materials.<br />

TEMPERED STEEL<br />

Provides a high degree of<br />

abrasion and wear resistance.<br />

Good bend recovery. Best for<br />

aggressively removing residue<br />
