Bruckner Brush Wheel Big 220 x 158 mm
The large Bruckner brush wheel at 220 x 158 mm. It is close in diameter to the big Monforts wheel but 9 mm narrower in the body, which is why the two cannot be swapped. A stenter brush wheel presses the fabric selvedge down onto the pins as the cloth enters the rail. If the bristles are worn, too soft or the wrong grade for the fabric, the selvedge is not pushed fully onto the pins and the edge lets go inside the chamber.
Key Benefits
- Sized 220 x 158 mm for the Bruckner brush position, no shimming on the shaft
- Choice of six bristle types so the wheel suits your fabric and chamber temperature
- PBT bristle option for the hottest running positions
- Wheel body available in red, green and purple so bristle grades can be told apart on the shelf
Application Scenarios
- Bruckner pin rails at the main pinning position
- Heat setting and drying ranges on Bruckner machines
- Annual brush changes on a planned shutdown
Who It Is For
- Finishing mills running Bruckner stenters
- Maintenance teams replacing brush wheels at the annual service
- Machinery dealers holding brush wheels for local mills
Problems It Solves
- Worn bristles failing to press the selvedge onto the pins, so the edge releases in the chamber.
- Bristle grade too soft for a heavy fabric, so the edge is never properly pinned.
- Brush wheels shedding tufts into the fabric and showing up as faults in the finished cloth.

How It Compares
| Compared With | What Changes |
|---|---|
| Monforts big 220 x 167 mm | Same diameter, 9 mm difference in body width. Measure the body width before ordering either. |
| Bruckner small 155 x 85 mm | The small wheel runs in a different position on the same machine. |
Fitting and Replacing This Part
Step 1
Stop the machine and let the wheel cool before removing it
Step 2
Note the running direction before pulling the old wheel off the shaft
Step 3
Fit the new wheel square to the shaft and check it runs without wobble
Step 4
Turn the rail by hand for one pass and check bristle contact along the pin row
Step 5
Change wheels in complete sets so brush pressure is even across the machine

Industries Using This Part
Bruckner Brush Wheel Big 220 x 158 mm Questions
How is this different from the Monforts wheel?
Same 220 mm diameter but a 158 mm body against the Monforts 167 mm. That 9 mm is enough that the wheels will not swap.
Which bristle for polyester heat setting?
PBT bristle is the high temperature grade and is the usual choice for heat setting positions.
Do you supply other Bruckner parts?
Yes, Bruckner chain in four patterns, clips, pin plates and lubrication parts.
Are wheels sold singly or in sets?
Both. Most mills change them in complete sets so brush pressure is even across the machine.
