This conductive brush has Thunderon® fill material set within a conductive polypropylene plastic handle.
Ideal for cleaning and dusting areas that are sensitive to static electricity where the promotion of corona discharge is required.
This high-quality brush has a 1 x 29 row pattern, with a 1-1/4" trim, and a brush face of 5-1/8" x 3/8". The handle is 9-3/4" long x 3/8" wide x 7/8" high.
Thunderon® is a very fine (0.0015" diameter) conductive acrylic fiber that is chemically bonded with copper sulfide.
This high-performance fiber will dissipate a charge on any electrically charged surface.
The fineness of the fiber lends itself to be used in applications that require non-contact corona discharge on static-charged surfaces.
The surface resistivity of Thunderon® is 102Ω/cm. The plastic handle is conductive with a surface resistivity of 104Ω/cm.
Conductive brushes have a surface resistivity range of 102Ω/cm - 104Ω/cm and are used to remove static buildup from the work surface.
Conductive brushes will act as a conduit between the charged surface and the path to ground.
They are made with fully conductive materials that are active static eliminators.
Use conductive brushes with a wrist strap or other mechanism to provide a path to ground.
(Note: Conductive fibers are not recommended for use with unencapsulated electronic microcircuits; minute pieces of conductive material have been known to cause short circuits.)
