About Lessmann

Lessmann GmbH is a German manufacturer of wire brushes and technical brushes, with a comprehensive range covering industrial surface treatment, deburring, cleaning and surface preparation. The company is based in the Remscheid area, the same German region known for precision metalworking and tool manufacturing that has given Europe many of its most respected industrial brands, and it holds to the manufacturing standards that tradition expects.

Wire brushes are a fundamental consumable in metalworking and fabrication. Cup brushes and wheel brushes for angle grinders remove weld spatter, mill scale, rust and old coatings from steel surfaces before painting or welding. End brushes reach into holes, slots and internal profiles that larger brushes cannot get to, and twisted wire brushes pair the aggressive cleaning action of knotted wire with a balance that suits hand-held use. The wire specification, meaning its diameter, temper, fill density and twist, sets how aggressive the brush is and which materials and jobs it suits.

The Lessmann range spans the full breadth of wire brush requirements in the professional market, from fine crimped wire brushes for light surface finishing to coarse knotted wire cup brushes for aggressive scale and spatter removal, along with strip brushes for conveyor sealing, machine guarding and industrial cleaning. What sets a professional-grade Lessmann brush apart from a commodity wire brush is the quality of the wire fill, the strength of the construction and the consistency of the wire specification.

Products We Can Supply from Lessmann

Cup brushes for angle grinders. Lessmann knotted and crimped wire cup brushes come in 75 mm and 100 mm diameters for M14 angle grinder spindles, in carbon steel, stainless steel and brass wire specifications. Knotted wire cup brushes handle aggressive rust, scale and weld spatter removal from steel fabrications, while crimped wire cups suit lighter surface cleaning and finishing where knotted wire would be too aggressive. Stainless steel wire cups are for cleaning stainless steel and aluminium without iron contamination.

Wheel brushes for angle grinders. Lessmann knotted and crimped wire wheel brushes come in 115 mm and 125 mm diameters for cleaning welds, removing coatings and preparing surfaces on flat steel sections and plate. A wheel brush works differently from a cup brush, cleaning a narrower path with higher wire tip contact pressure, which makes it well suited to weld seams, edges and narrow areas where a cup brush would be impractical.

End brushes and drill-mounted brushes. Lessmann end brushes have a 6 mm shank for use in die grinders, Dremels and power drills, cleaning internal surfaces, holes, bores and profiles. The range includes twisted wire and crimped end brushes in diameters from 6 mm to 30 mm, plus tube cleaning brushes for surface preparation inside tube ends and pipe sockets.

Strip brushes and industrial brushes. Lessmann metal-backed and plastic-backed strip brushes are available in carbon steel, stainless steel, nylon and natural fibre fills for machine sealing, conveyor guarding, door seals, dust exclusion and industrial cleaning. Strip brushes are a versatile industrial component, used wherever a flexible, conforming seal or cleaning element is needed along a linear profile.

Industries

Lessmann wire brushes and industrial brushes are used in metal fabrication and structural steelwork, welding and weld finishing, automotive bodywork preparation, ship repair and marine maintenance, general engineering workshops, industrial maintenance and plant cleaning, food processing equipment maintenance, and any metalworking or manufacturing job that calls for surface preparation, deburring or cleaning with wire brush tools.

Good to Know

When cleaning stainless steel with wire brushes, use stainless steel wire brushes only, never carbon steel. Carbon steel wire leaves microscopic iron deposits in the stainless surface that start corrosion, producing rust staining even on a properly specified stainless component. The same applies to grinding discs and abrasive tools. If you work with both mild steel and stainless, keep dedicated stainless-only brushes and discs and label them clearly.
