Shurhold Classic SHUR-LOK Deck Brush Head

The Shurhold Classic SHUR-LOK Deck Brush Head range combines 6-inch and 10-inch marine cleaning brushes in five bristle configurations: extra soft, soft, combo soft/medium, medium and stiff. Choose the brush size and bristle type for delicate clear plastics, gelcoat and paint, textured non-skid surfaces, teak or heavier scrubbing.

Each brush uses a solid wood block, premium bristles, rust-resistant nickel-silver stapling wire and a rubber wrap-around bumper that helps protect surrounding surfaces. The integral SHUR-LOK connector locks into compatible Shurhold fixed-length and telescoping handles. The handle is sold separately.

What Is the Shurhold Classic Deck Brush Used For?

The Shurhold Classic Deck Brush is used with a compatible SHUR-LOK handle to wash, scrub and maintain boat decks, hull surfaces, windows, canopies and other marine surfaces. The selectable bristle configurations allow the brush to be matched to the required cleaning action rather than using one abrasive grade for every surface.

Typical applications include:

• Boat decks and cockpit areas
• Gelcoat, fibreglass and painted surfaces
• Textured and non-skid deck mouldings
• Teak and other durable scrubbing surfaces
• Isinglass, acrylic and other delicate clear plastics when the extra-soft brush is selected
• Mixed cleaning jobs where the Combo brush can wash gently and scrub more firmly as pressure increases
• Marine, caravan, vehicle and household cleaning where the surface is compatible with the chosen bristles

Which Variants Are Available?

• 960: 6in Soft, yellow polystyrene

What Is Included?

• Integral SHUR-LOK quick-release connector
• Solid wood brush block
• Rubber wrap-around safety bumper

What Is Not Included?

• Shurhold fixed-length or telescoping handle
• Curved adapter or threaded adapter
• Boat wash, detergent or specialist surface cleaner
• Storage cover or carrying bag
• Any accessory not permanently fitted to the selected brush head

How Do I Select the Correct Brush Size?

• 6in / 15cm: Provides more control in smaller areas, around fittings and where access is limited.
• 10in / 25cm: Covers a wider area per pass and is suited to larger decks, hull sections and broad cleaning surfaces.

Both sizes use the same SHUR-LOK connection and are available in extra-soft, soft, combo soft/medium, medium and stiff configurations. Select size according to the working area and required manoeuvrability.

How Do I Select the Correct Bristle Type?

• Extra Soft - Blue Nylon: For isinglass, acrylic, Plexiglas and other delicate surfaces where minimal abrasion is required.
• Soft - Yellow Flagged Polystyrene: Split-end fibres for gelcoat, fibreglass, paint and general washing.
• Combo - Red/Yellow Soft & Medium: Longer soft outer fibres handle general washing, while shorter medium centre fibres engage as additional pressure is applied to textured or non-skid areas.
• Medium - Yellow Polystyrene: For textured and non-skid surfaces, canvas and more persistent dirt.
• Stiff - White Polypropylene: For teak, below-waterline surfaces when accessible and heavy-duty scrubbing on materials that can tolerate a firm brush.

Always follow the surface and cleaning-product manufacturer's instructions. Test a small inconspicuous area where compatibility or abrasion resistance is uncertain.

How Does the Combo Brush Work?

The Combo brush uses two bristle lengths in one head. The longer soft red outer bristles contact the surface during normal washing. When more downward pressure is applied, the shorter medium yellow centre bristles reach the surface and provide additional scrubbing action.

• Part 965 is the 6in / 15cm Combo brush.
• Part 982 is the 10in / 25cm Combo brush.
• The soft outer fibres are intended for general washing on compatible gelcoat, clear coat, fibreglass and paint.
• The medium centre fibres assist with textured and non-skid areas.
• It is not a substitute for the extra-soft blue brush on clear plastics or the stiff white brush for the heaviest compatible scrubbing.

Is a Handle Included?

No. Every variant in this listing is a brush-head attachment only. A compatible Shurhold SHUR-LOK fixed-length or telescoping handle must be purchased separately or already owned.

Which Handles Are Compatible?

The brush heads are designed for Shurhold handles equipped with the SHUR-LOK push-button quick-release system.

• Compatible Shurhold fixed-length handles
• Compatible Shurhold telescoping handles
• Compatible SHUR-LOK extension and angle accessories where suitable

Compatibility with generic threaded poles or non-Shurhold push-button handles should not be assumed.

How Does the SHUR-LOK Connection Work?

1. Inspect the brush connector and handle for damage, grit or corrosion.
2. Press the handle's release button and insert the brush attachment fully.
3. Align the locking point and allow the button to engage.
4. Pull gently on the brush head to confirm that it is locked.
5. Press the release button before removing the brush for cleaning or storage.

The locking mechanism is designed to prevent the brush head rotating or pulling free during normal use. Do not use the brush unless the attachment is fully engaged.

Construction and Design

• Solid wood brush block
• Angled head design for effective contact with the working surface
• Flared bristles that reach into textured areas and retain cleaning solution
• Premium nylon, polystyrene or polypropylene bristles according to variant
• Flagged split-end fibres on the soft yellow brushes
• Dual-length soft and medium polystyrene fibres on the red/yellow Combo brushes
• Rust-resistant nickel-silver stapling wire
• Rubber wrap-around bumper to reduce accidental marking
• Integrated SHUR-LOK connector
• Made in the USA

Cleaning and Use

• Rinse loose sand, salt crystals and grit from the surface before brushing.
• Select a bristle type suitable for the surface.
• Use a marine cleaner or detergent compatible with the surface and bristle material.
• Keep the brush wet and use controlled, overlapping strokes.
• Use light pressure with the Combo brush for soft washing and increase pressure only where the surface can tolerate the medium centre fibres.
• Allow the bristles rather than the wooden block or bumper to contact the surface.
• Do not use a medium or stiff brush on clear plastics, polished paint or other delicate finishes.
• Do not use excessive force that bends the handle, connector or brush block.
• Rinse the cleaned surface before detergent dries.

Care and Maintenance

• Rinse the brush thoroughly with fresh water after use.
• Remove hair, fishing line, weed and debris from the bristles.
• Wash out chemical residue before storage.
• Allow the brush to dry in a ventilated location.
• Inspect the bumper, wooden block, bristles and SHUR-LOK connector regularly.
• Do not store the brush with the bristles permanently crushed or bent.
• Keep the brush away from excessive heat and chemicals not compatible with its materials.
• Replace the brush if the block splits, the connector loosens or the bristles become severely worn.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the brush include a handle?
No. This listing supplies one selected brush head only. A compatible Shurhold SHUR-LOK handle is sold separately.

What is the difference between the 6in and 10in brushes?
The 6in brush is more compact and easier to control around fittings. The 10in brush covers a larger area per pass. Both sizes use the same SHUR-LOK connection and are available in five bristle configurations.

What is the Combo brush used for?
The Combo brush combines longer soft outer bristles with shorter medium centre bristles. Use light pressure for general washing and additional pressure where a compatible textured or non-skid surface needs more scrubbing.

Which part numbers are the Combo brushes?
Part 965 is the 6in Combo brush, and part 982 is the 10in Combo brush.

Which brush should I use on isinglass or acrylic?
Select the extra-soft blue nylon brush: part 970 in 6in or part 975 in 10in.

Which brush is suitable for gelcoat and painted surfaces?
The soft yellow flagged polystyrene brush is intended for gelcoat, fibreglass and paint. The soft outer fibres of the Combo brush are also intended for compatible finished surfaces, but its medium centre fibres engage under pressure, so test delicate or previously damaged finishes first.

Which brush should I use on non-skid deck surfaces?
The medium yellow polystyrene brush is intended for textured and non-skid surfaces. The Combo brush offers a softer initial contact with additional centre-bristle action when pressure is increased.

Which brush is the most abrasive?
The stiff white polypropylene brush is the firmest option and is intended for teak, below-waterline surfaces and other heavy-duty cleaning applications.

Will these brushes fit a generic threaded pole?
Not directly. They are designed for the Shurhold SHUR-LOK quick-release system.

Can the brush be used in salt water?
Yes. Rinse the brush and connector thoroughly with fresh water after use and allow them to dry before storage.
