A wire brush is a tool used to clean, polish, and remove rust or paint from metal surfaces. It consists of a handle and a bundle of wire bristles that are attached to the handle. The wire bristles are available in different materials and thicknesses depending on the intended use. Some wire brushes have a cup or wheel shape, while others are flat or angled. Wire brushes can be used by hand or attached to a power tool, such as a drill or angle grinder, to increase their effectiveness. It's important to wear appropriate safety gear, such as eye protection and gloves, when using a wire brush, as the wire bristles can be sharp and cause injury.
