TANIS

TANIS is a manufacturer of industrial brushes and brush-based cleaning systems, with a product line that spans strip brushes, cylinder brushes, wheel brushes, cup brushes, and custom brush assemblies. The company is headquartered in the United States and has been producing brushes for industrial and food-processing applications for several decades. TANIS brushes are used in applications where consistent bristle density, filament retention, and resistance to repeated washdown are required. The product families most commonly specified by plant engineers include cylinder brushes for conveyor cleaning, strip brushes for sealing and guiding, and wheel brushes for deburring and surface finishing. TANIS also produces food-grade brushes that meet FDA and USDA requirements for direct and indirect food contact, using materials such as natural polyester, nylon, and polypropylene. These brushes are designed for light-duty cleaning in food processing and packaging environments, where gentle debris removal and contamination control are priorities. The food-grade cylinder brushes in the 3G Electric catalog, for example, feature 30-inch overall and brush face lengths, with bristle diameters ranging from 0.012 to 0.03 inches, and are available with adjustable-width mounts. TANIS strip brushes are used for a different set of tasks: they are commonly installed in doors, gates, and machine guards to block dust, chips, and light, and they are also used as conveyor guides and product hold-downs. The strip brush line includes metal-backed and plastic-backed options, with straight or coiled configurations, and a range of filament materials and diameters. TANIS wheel brushes are used for deburring, edge blending, and surface preparation on metal, plastic, and composite parts. They are available in crimped or knotted wire, and in abrasive-impregnated nylon for applications where a uniform finish is required. Cup brushes are used for larger surface areas, such as weld cleaning and rust removal. 3G Electric supplies TANIS brushes as part of its industrial equipment catalog, with 172 SKUs currently listed. The catalog includes strip brushes, cylinder brushes, and related brush products, with specifications such as overall length, brush face length, bristle material, and bristle diameter. 3G Electric supports the TANIS line by providing product data, cross-referencing, and quotation services for plant engineers, maintenance managers, and procurement specialists. The company ships globally and can source TANIS brushes for applications in food processing, material handling, metalworking, and general industrial cleaning. For technical buyers, the key considerations when specifying TANIS brushes are the filament material and diameter, the brush face length and overall length, the mounting method, and the operating environment. TANIS publishes technical data for its brush products, including filament specifications and recommended operating parameters, which can be used to match a brush to a specific application. 3G Electric can provide this data and assist with selection when the application details are known.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about TANIS from 3G Electric.

What bristle diameters are available in TANIS food-grade cylinder brushes?

TANIS food-grade cylinder brushes are available with bristle diameters including 0.012 in, 0.018 in, and 0.03 in. These sizes correspond to different levels of stiffness and cleaning action. Smaller diameters, such as 0.012 in, are used for gentle cleaning and dusting, while larger diameters, such as 0.03 in, provide more aggressive debris removal. The brushes are made with natural polyester bristles and are suitable for food processing and packaging environments. When selecting a bristle diameter, consider the surface being cleaned, the type of debris, and the required brush life. 3G Electric lists multiple SKUs in this family, including CB3510FG, CB3520FG, CB3530FG, CB4010FG, CB4020FG, CB4030FG, CB6010FG, and CB6030FG.

What is the difference between TANIS strip brushes and TANIS cylinder brushes?

TANIS strip brushes are linear brushes with a metal or plastic backing, used for sealing, guiding, and blocking. They are typically mounted in a straight or coiled configuration and are used in doors, gates, machine guards, and conveyor systems. TANIS cylinder brushes are rotary brushes with a cylindrical shape, used for cleaning, conveying, washing, or dusting on conveyor belts and other surfaces. Cylinder brushes are mounted on a shaft and rotate against the product or surface. The choice between strip and cylinder brushes depends on the motion required: strip brushes are stationary, while cylinder brushes rotate. Both types are available in a range of filament materials and diameters.

Are TANIS brushes suitable for food processing applications?

TANIS manufactures food-grade brushes that are suitable for food processing and packaging environments. These brushes use materials that meet FDA and USDA requirements for direct and indirect food contact. The food-grade cylinder brushes in the 3G Electric catalog, for example, have natural polyester bristles and are designed for light-duty cleaning, such as removing debris from conveyors. They are available with adjustable-width mounts and have a 30 in overall length and brush face length. When specifying brushes for food processing, consider the temperature, cleaning agents, and washdown procedures used in the facility. TANIS publishes material data to help with selection.

What filament materials are used in TANIS industrial brushes?

TANIS industrial brushes are available with a range of filament materials, including nylon, polypropylene, polyester, natural fibers, and wire. The choice of material depends on the application: nylon is used for general cleaning and has good abrasion resistance; polypropylene is used in food processing and chemical environments; polyester is used in food-grade brushes and offers good chemical resistance; natural fibers are used in applications where a softer brush is required; and wire is used for aggressive cleaning, deburring, and surface preparation. TANIS also offers abrasive-impregnated nylon filaments for finishing applications. The filament diameter and density are specified for each brush type.

How do I select the correct TANIS cylinder brush for my conveyor cleaning application?

To select a TANIS cylinder brush for conveyor cleaning, first determine the width of the conveyor and the required brush face length. TANIS cylinder brushes are available in various lengths, including 30 in. Next, consider the type of debris and the surface being cleaned: for gentle cleaning, use a smaller bristle diameter such as 0.012 in; for more aggressive cleaning, use a larger diameter such as 0.03 in. The mounting method is also important: TANIS offers adjustable-width mounts for flexibility. Finally, check the operating environment: for food processing, specify a food-grade brush with FDA-compliant materials. 3G Electric can provide product data and cross-reference TANIS part numbers to assist with selection.

What is the lead time for TANIS brushes from 3G Electric?

Lead time for TANIS brushes depends on the specific SKU and quantity. 3G Electric maintains a catalog of 172 TANIS SKUs, including strip and cylinder brushes. For items in stock, lead time is typically short. For non-stock or custom items, lead time is determined by TANIS manufacturing schedules. 3G Electric can provide a quotation with estimated lead time for each part number. Because 3G Electric ships globally, transit time will vary by destination. Contact 3G Electric with the TANIS part number and required quantity to receive a quote and lead time estimate.
