Parts Brush Division Oriflo Flow‑Through Parts Washer Brush OR101H — 28" Hose, Trialoy Filaments

The Parts Brush™ Oriflo with Hose (OR101H) is a flow‑through parts washer brush with a 28" hose that connects to a washer nozzle for controlled, solvent‑circulating cleaning.

Introduced in 1980 by the Parts Brush Division of Paint Brush Corporation, the Oriflo is the original flow‑thru parts washer brush designed specifically for circulating‑solvent machines. This iteration keeps the proven flow‑through body and bullet‑tipped head but upgrades the filaments to Trialoy polyester and uses Buna‑N tubing to resist petroleum‑based fluids. Many parts washer manufacturers include this brush as original equipment because it balances durability, solvent compatibility, and targeted cleaning performance.

How does the Oriflo with Hose deliver solvent to the work surface?

The OR101H routes circulating solvent through the brush handle and out between filaments so fluid reaches crevices while you scrub. The 28" hose end slips onto a washer nozzle for continuous flow without interrupting cleaning, letting the machine recirculate solution rather than wasting solvent.

• 28" hose connection fits most parts washer nozzles for steady fluid delivery
• Flow‑through handle channels solvent directly to bristles for targeted cleaning
• Reduces solvent splash and sprays compared with open nozzles

What makes the filament and tip design more effective than other brushes?

The Oriflo uses Trialoy polyester filaments formed into a bullet‑shaped tip that resists mushrooming and retains stiffness under heavy use. That shape concentrates scrubbing force and lets solvent penetrate tight areas, improving removal of grease, grime, and light deposits when used with the correct cleaning solution.

• Trialoy filament resists breakdown in both petroleum and water‑based solvents
• Bullet tip maintains shape longer for consistent contact and agitation
• Stiff filaments provide mechanical action without rapidly splaying

Is the Oriflo built to withstand industrial parts‑washing environments?

Yes — the brush combines a Buna‑N (nitrile) flow tube with rugged polyester filament for solvent resistance and mechanical longevity. The body and assembly are produced by the original manufacturer, assembled in the U.S., and engineered for repeated exposure to circulating cleaning solutions used in commercial shops.

• Buna‑N tubing resists many petroleum‑based solvents used in parts washers
• Assembled in the USA to the original design standards
• Widely supplied as original equipment on many parts washer models

How do I choose and use the Oriflo safely and effectively?

Select the OR101H when you need a flow‑through brush for a circulating solvent system and want a hose connection for quick attachment. Use the brush with the parts washer recommended solvents, wear appropriate protective equipment, and rinse or run the machine per your solvent provider's guidelines to maintain brush life.

• Confirm compatibility of your washer nozzle with the 28" hose fitting
• Match solvent type (petroleum or water‑based) — Trialoy filament resists both
• Inspect bristles regularly and replace when excessive wear or splaying occurs

Who is this for: The Parts Brush™ Oriflo with Hose (OR101H) is aimed at professional mechanics, maintenance shops, and manufacturing facilities that use circulating‑solvent parts washers and need a durable, attachable brush for repeatable, targeted cleaning. Choose this brush if you require a long‑lasting filament, reliable solvent routing through the handle, and a hose connection for quick setup with common washer nozzles.
