Industrial Abrasive Brushes: Fickert, Frankfurt, and Edge Polishing (Levigacoste) Models
Fickert, Frankfurt, and edge polishing abrasive brushes are high-precision tools designed for surface preparation, antiquing, brushing, satin finishing, and leather-look (silk-effect) treatments. Specifically developed for processing marble, natural stone, and ceramics, they deliver maximum efficiency and consistent results on both raw slabs and pre-worked surfaces.
Fickert and Frankfurt Brushes: Structure and Filaments
Our Fickert and Frankfurt models feature a classic standard-sized plastic base engineered for maximum stability during continuous grinding cycles. They are tufted with high-performance filaments:
- Silicon Carbide or Diamond Abrasive Nylon: Ideal for enhancing marble veining, highlighting stone texture, or creating soft-touch finishes on ceramics.
- Steel and Metal Wire: Perfect for aggressive material removal and pronounced antiqued effects.
The high tufting density ensures even wear across the tool, maintaining consistent finishing quality throughout the entire life of the brush.
