• About your brush diameters:
  1. When you show a brush diameter of .060, is that inches, mm, or cm? I think it's inches?
  2. Is that diameter the bristles or the shaft?
  3. I'm trying to get brushes to clean the socket holes of a 9 pin socket (12AU7, 12AX7), would you have a recommendation as to which size would be most appropriate? I will be honest - CAIG offers a brush designed explicitly f or this but it is pricey. I am looking for a more cost effective solution, and want to buy multiples of the product. Thank you for any help. -Chuck DiGiorgio (610) 213-3024

  Chuck,
  The brush diameter spec measures diameter of the brush part (width of the cross section) and the UOM is inches - ie, .060". A Nylon tube brush is probably the right brush for the application described. What is the hole diameter of the 9 pin socket? You'll want to match brush DIA to this spec, knowing that Nylon bristles will flex some when pressure is applied. – Solo Horton Brushes

• I need small brushes that won't rust. So should I order stainless steel or nylon? – cecilia c.

  They are both good options, it will depend how abrasive you want the bristle to be. Go with Nylon if you need a soft bristle, SS for a more rigid bristle. Thank you for your inquiry. – Solo Horton Brushes
