There was a thread last week regarding ground connections to the
frame/battery tray, etc... I had a unique form of a wire brush pointed out
to me not long ago and thought it might be of interest to those on the list.
The people I know use it to create a clean and neat area to bond grounding
connections to painted or powdercoated telephone equipment racks (in telecom
you must do this kind of thing well and correctly, or you won't do it very
long!).
This tool is called a "Shank-mounted Pilot bonding wire end brush". It is
essentially a wire brush where a pilot shaft goes completely through the bush
and it pilots you into an existing threaded hole. They wires of the brush
are bound so they will not splay and mess up the surrounding area. All
brushes have 1/4" shafts with pilot diameters of 3/32 through 1/4", brush
diameters of 1/2", 3/4" or 1". Product can be found on page 2480 of the
McMaster-Carr catalog, on line athttp://www.mcmaster.com/
Now can we do a little group bonding?
