INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on the purchase of your TIG Brush!
Designed, developed, and manufactured in Australia by Ensitech, the TIG Brush
is an electrochemical surface finishing system. It uses the combined action of
electric current, heat, and chemistry to provide fast metal finishing. The system
is famous for its ability to remove heat tint from stainless steel TIG and MIG
welds. In addition, the TIG Brush can perform other functions such as polishing
metal surfaces, indelibly printing logos, text, and even engraving/etching.
To meet your specific needs several options are available. The 440, 550 and 700
models offer different power levels for light work on thin metal through to
removing deep heat tint from the largest metalwork. See section S5 for
more information.
Several proprietary fluids are available for different operations. There are
solvents for adhesive removal and weld preparation, acids for fast heat tint
removal with matching neutralisers, and neutral solutions for food safe work.
See section 7.3.
There are several tools available to enable the different operations. The Classic
Wand for general work, the PROPEL for the more sophisticated user and the
Flexi-Wand to get to more inaccessible work. See section 4.2
When used with the Branding Kit and custom-made or single use stencils,
the TIG Brush will also permanently brand your stainless steel with an indelible
printed mark or engraving. For more details on the Branding Kit visit
www.tigbrush.com/products/branding-kit.
As well as Stainless Steel, the TIG Brush can also be used with other metals
such as brass, copper and aluminium (aluminum). Contact your local TIG
Brush distributor/dealer team for more information, or visit our website
