The most common brush with this shape is made with the metal channel on the inside of the brush and the filaments pointing outward. These are called Open Wound Cylinder brushes or Open Coil brushes. They start as regular wound cylinder brushes and are then stretched to the required pitch, sometimes referred to as lead. With this construction, the brush is mounted on a shaft and the filaments work as the brush rotates.
Outward wound coil brushes are typically mounted onto a shaft and spun using a motor. They can be made with denser filling materials or spiral-shaped materials to facilitate different types of product movement or brush intensity within a given application.
