Safety and care
This page exists because a wire brush is only as safe as the habits around it. Five minutes here is worth more than any feature on the product page.
Never use it on a hot grill
It's printed on the housing. Heat softens the wire so it bends instead of scraping, and it can deform the plastic head mount. Let the grate cool until it's warm to a gloved hand, about fifteen minutes after the burners go off.
Before every use: the ten-second check
- Look at the head under decent light. If wire is splayed flat, missing in patches, or you can pull a strand out with your fingers, change the head. Don't finish the season on it.
- Tug two or three bristle clusters. They should not move.
- Check the head is fully seated and the lock has clicked. A head that wobbles will shed.
After every use: the wipe
Fold a damp paper towel, hold it with tongs and run it down every bar. This is the single most effective thing you can do to keep loose wire out of food, and it applies to every wire brush ever made, not just ours.
When the wire is worn
Stop using it at the first sign of splaying or shedding, not at the end of the season. A worn wire brush is the one that puts bristles in food, and no cleaning routine makes up for that.
We sell the brush as a single package and don't stock heads as a separate item. If yours wears out or arrives damaged inside the guarantee window, email us and we'll sort it out rather than sending you looking for a part number.
Charging, water and storage
- Charge indoors on a hard surface with the supplied USB-C cable or any standard 5V phone charger.
- The body is splash resistant, not waterproof. Rinse the head under the tap with the head detached. Never submerge the body and never put any part of it in a dishwasher.
- Store it dry and indoors. Left out in the rain all season, the wire will rust, same as any steel brush.
- Keep it away from children. It's a power tool with metal wire on the end.
