BRUSH CLEANING ASSY

A brush is a common tool with bristles, wire or other filaments. It generally consists of a handle or block to which filaments are affixed in either a parallel or perpendicular orientation, depending on the way the brush is to be gripped during use. The material of both the block and bristles or filaments is chosen to withstand hazards of its intended use, such as corrosive chemicals, heat or abrasion.

In foodservice, a cleaner may refer to a cleaning tool or a cleaning solution, powder or cleaning tablet. Cleaning tools may include brushes or scrapers. Cleaning solutions may include ice machine cleaners and powdered or spray on grease removers for grills, fryers, ovens, ranges, and more. Cleaning tablets are hardened cleaning powders that are diluted with water during an automated cleaning cycle in equipment such as dishwashers or combi ovens.
