Product details
The Furutech ASB-1 is a passive antistatic brush designed for record care and other audio/video surfaces. Its COREBRID B composite fibres combine dust removal with a conductive path intended to help dissipate static charge during light brushing.
Conductive composite fibres
Furutech identifies the fibre material as a core-and-sheath conductive acrylic developed by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation. The carbon-based conductive core is protected by a durable outer sheath. This construction differs from a conventional dust brush by providing a defined route for charge dissipation through the fibres.
Handling and applications
The manufacturer instructs the user to keep a finger in contact with the metal band holding the bristles while gently brushing the surface. Listed applications include vinyl records, optical discs, projector screens and camera lenses, with the appropriate surface-care guidance observed. The handheld design works without a battery or mains connection and can remain beside the turntable for routine record care. A Black handle, metal ferrule and dark bristles form the single coordinated finish.
