This 25mm paint brush (Draper Tools Group D, product code DR26223) is a small-format finishing brush intended for cutting in, trim work and touch-up applications with both water‑based and solvent‑based paints. Its compact head offers control when painting window frames, mouldings, radiators and other narrow surfaces where accuracy is required rather than broad coverage.

The brush features a tapered, precision-cut head formed from a flagged polyester/nylon filament blend that gives good paint pickup and even lay-off. The filaments are formulated to resist swelling with waterborne emulsions and to withstand alkali in common trade primers. The ferrule is a nickel‑plated steel crimp that offers improved corrosion resistance over raw steel and provides secure mechanical retention of the bristles. The handle is varnished beechwood with a drilled hanging hole for easy storage and a comfortable straight profile for controlled brushing. Thread type and drive type are not applicable to hand brushes.

In terms of standards and regulatory compliance, the brush is manufactured to Draper Tools Group D quality inspection procedures and is supplied in accordance with UK/EU chemical safety requirements such as REACH; materials are selected to be RoHS compliant where relevant. While there is no single DIN/ISO number that covers every brush construction, this product is produced in line with recognised BS/ISO good practice for hand finishing tools and consumer paint brushes.

Typical users include decorators, joiners, DIY enthusiasts and maintenance teams in building maintenance, heritage conservation, marine touch‑up and light industrial finishing. The filament blend makes the brush compatible with emulsions, gloss paints, varnishes and primers used across construction, facilities management and refurbishment projects. Key benefits are accurate control for trims and edges, a corrosion‑resistant ferrule for longer service life, and a filament construction that balances paint release with durability.

Duchy Fasteners stocks this item as an individual brush and in trade packs; other widths from the Draper range are available for broader applications. For ordering, refer to DR26223.
