Monforts Brush Wheel Big 220 x 167 mm
The large Monforts brush wheel at 220 x 167 mm. 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. This is the size most Monforts pin rails run in the main pinning position, and it is our highest-volume brush wheel.
Key Benefits
- Sized 220 x 167 mm for the Monforts 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
- Monforts pin rails at the main pinning position
- Heat setting ranges running polyester and polyamide
- Annual brush changes at the planned service
Who It Is For
- Finishing mills running Monforts 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 small brush wheel 180 x 22 mm | The small wheel runs in a different position on the machine. Measure the wheel you are removing before ordering. |
| Pig hair against PBT bristle | Pig hair is softer and suits delicate goods. PBT holds up better in the hottest positions. |
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

Read GuideMonforts Brush Wheel Big 220 x 167 mm Questions
What size is the big Monforts brush wheel?
220 x 167 mm. The small Monforts wheel is 180 x 22 mm and runs in a different position.
Which bristle should I choose?
PBT for high temperature positions, pig hair for softer contact on delicate goods, hard hair with glue for heavy fabrics that need firm pressure. Tell us your fabric and chamber temperature and we will recommend one.
What do the wheel colours mean?
We mould wheel bodies in red, green and purple so mills can tell bristle grades apart on the shelf. Tell us which colour you want for which grade.
How often should brush wheels be changed?
Most mills change them at the annual service. Change them sooner if you see the selvedge releasing inside the chamber.
