Precision Ox-Hair Artist Brush
The Wooster Brush Company 1625 features a 1/8 in ox-hair bristle set in a nickel-plated copper ferrule on a green wood handle. Natural filaments hold oil-based paints and varnishes well for detailed artwork. The soft stiffness suits smooth surfaces such as drywall, metal and wood. This new brush is built for fine art and coating applications.
Replacing Worn Fine-Art Brushes
Artists switch to this tool when older brushes lose their point or shed bristles during detailed work. The ox-hair filament keeps its shape longer than many synthetic alternatives on smooth substrates. The jump is worth it when precision lines and consistent paint flow matter more than covering large areas quickly.
Suits Detail Painters and Restorers
This brush fits painters working on intricate artwork, touch-up jobs or restoration where control is paramount. Buyers needing broader coverage or water-based cleanup should look at wider brushes or synthetic filaments designed for those tasks.

Questions about this item
What ferrule material and bristle width does the 1/8 in brush use?
The ferrule is nickel-plated copper and the bristle width is 1/8 in, matching the stated brush size.
How do you seat the wood handle into the ferrule without loosening the ox hair?
Press the handle straight in until the ferrule shoulder meets the wood; twisting can pull the soft 17 1/2 mm bristles loose.
When should the ox hair bristles be replaced after use with oil-based paints?
Replace the brush when the 2 mm thick bristles lose their spring or split, which shows the soft filament is worn.
