Thank you so much for your concern about our CEO, Ken Rakusin, his family, and their home. Fortunately, his family was able to evacuate safely and are now staying together at another property. While Ken’s home did sustain significant damage, estimated between $30,000 and $50,000 without insurance as State Farm dropped their coverage a few months ago, we truly feel it was a miracle that the house is still standing.
To give you an idea of the destruction around us: if you exit the home and look to the right, just four houses away, you'll see complete devastation stretching for about a mile and a half. However, to the left, there's minimal or no damage at all. It's truly astonishing how random and unpredictable this fire has been.
Our factory and offices are located 15-20 miles away from the nearest fire, so they are completely safe and secure. All of our team members are also living a similar or greater distance from the fires, so everyone is out of harm’s way.
We’re grateful to be safe and look forward to continuing business as usual.
Gordon Brush's premium-quality bonded disc brushes are used primarily to condition the surface of printed circuit boards and other metallic surfaces such as stainless steel (used in all types of industrial and commercial appliances).
Gordon Brush's bonded disc brushes are made from synthetic fibers and abrasive particles that are combined into a conformable, three-dimensional open web material having exceptional performance characteristics. The synthetic fiber and abrasive particles are bonded with special heat-resistant resin, firmly fixing the particles to the non-woven structure. The flexible and open structure has no tendency to clog, is self-dressing, and can be used for wet and dry applications. This elastic material adjusts to every surface and allows constant and reproducible working results. The material may also be used with any lubricants and polishing compounds.
The outer diameter of the discs ranges from 2.75" to 6" and the inner diameter from 1" to 2". These long-bonded disc brushes have an overall length of 24". Grit options range from a fine 200 up to a super fine 500 in either silicon carbide or aluminum oxide.
Typical applications for bonded disc brushes include: industrial and decorative surface finishing on steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, high alloy metals, synthetics, ceramics, and glass; satin finishing; cleaning; deburring; light and fine grinding processes; edge radiusing; sheet and coil metal processing; woodworking, and fine grinding of paint work.
Sometimes selecting the correct size of brush for an application can be challenging when multiple specifications need to be met. Gordon Brush® has addressed this need and through the state-of-the-art Wizard feature, unique to the Gordon Brush® website, a customer can search for multiple detailed specifications simultaneously to find the exact brush needed.
