Brush Pigs

Cleaning Brushes for Pipeline Pigs.

Brush cleaning pigs are used during pre-commission and on-stream pipeline cleaning where rust, mill scale, sand, wax, organic growth, mud, oxides, and other foreign matter exist

Brushes are added to pipeline pigs for aggressive cleaning of the internal diameter of pipelines. They come in a variety of configurations; from a rotary brush – a full circle mounted as one piece on a urethane pig – to wrap brushes, to spring-loaded brushes mounted to a Super Pig or steel mandrel body pig. Brushes can be made from flat wire for more aggressive cleaning of tenacious deposits, or fine wire for more flexibility or corrosion pits.

Our Brush Cleaning Pigs are highly efficient and are based on a bi-directional pig design, being fitted with polyurethane guide and seal discs. The guide discs support and centralise the pig as well as providing a cleaning action on the internal pipewall to loosen and push most medium to hard deposits in front of the pig. The sealing discs maintain a tight seal within the pipeline to provide the pig with the drive to traverse the line.

Brush types:
- Wrap brushes
- Rotary brushes
- HB brushes
- Spring arm / paddle style brushes

Available in:
- Fine wire
- Flat wire




What are Brush Pigs?

Brush Pigs are specialized pipeline pigging tools equipped with wire brushes or brush attachments. They are designed to scrub and remove stubborn deposits such as rust, scale, wax, and debris from the inner walls of pipelines.

Unlike foam pigs or disc pigs that mainly push or separate products, brush pigs actively clean the pipe surface by applying mechanical brushing action while moving through the pipeline.

They are commonly mounted on steel mandrel bodies and can be combined with cups, discs, or magnets for multi-purpose pigging operations.


Key Features of Brush Pigs

  • Strong Cleaning Action – Equipped with steel or nylon brushes to scrub pipeline walls.

  • Heavy-Duty Design – Built on a steel mandrel body for durability and long runs.

  • Customizable Brushes – Can be fitted with different brush types depending on pipeline condition (steel wire for heavy scale, nylon for lighter cleaning).

  • Versatile Pigging – Often used with sealing discs and cups for both cleaning and separation.

  • Replaceable Parts – Brushes, discs, and cups can be replaced, making them cost-effective.

  • Reliable Performance – Suitable for pipelines with heavy deposits, rust, or scale buildup.

  • Applications of Brush Pigs

  • Oil & Gas Pipelines – Removing wax, scale, and other deposits to maintain flow efficiency.

  • Refineries & Petrochemical Plants – Cleaning pipelines carrying crude oil, chemicals, or refined products.

  • Water Pipelines – Removing rust, sediment, and biological growth.

  • Pipeline Commissioning – Used during pre-commissioning to ensure a clean and debris-free system.

  • Maintenance Operations – Regular cleaning to reduce corrosion risk and improve pipeline lifespan.

  • We pride ourselves on our responsiveness to our customers’ needs.
