Zen Bundles Zen Pipe Cleaners Hard Bristle - 264 Count for Arts & Crafts, DIY Projects, and Classroom Activities

Sturd don't bend Works great for one hitters.It’s okay but not sturdy. It immediately bends and is practically useless once it becomes wet. I wish it was more sturdy when wet and still have the flexibility to go further inside the pipe to clean on the inside.These pipe cleaners have sharp little points buried among the fibers that really clean out your pipe, one-hitter, etc. Cannabis is legal where I live and I have a medical use card as well. At this point in time, medical cannabis must still be consumed by smoking for many reasons. This leaves a sticky residue that takes 90% isopropyl alcohol and some elbow grease to remove on pipes, etc. These pipe cleaners are what you need to reduce the elbow grease to almost zero. Just be careful, or wear gloves when using them or you will get stabbed now and then by the sharp points. I've been using these for 3 years now and they work great and are priced right.Bristled enough to do a great job cleaning and absorbent enough to remove juices. I’ve been pleased with Zein’s performance.great value , perfect size, love the box for it. will buy againI bought these for weapons cleaning. It was a pleasing surprise that they have a slightly abrasive surface. Great for getting into tight places with excellent absorbency. The number makes them an excellent bang for the buck. It might be a while before I run out, but I will be sure to buy these again!Works good for my small pieces .They are short wish I would have looked at the length. Not absorbent at allI like the stiff bristles.This is a stiff bristle pipe cleaner, not the soft craft-oriented one. It will not shed fibers into your pipe. It will not buckle easily. Buyers will find that these pipe cleaners will actually prick your fingers so it's recommended that you wrap a bit of tissue or paper towel around the one end while pushing it through your pipe.Other than that, these are excellent for cleaning the oil/resin/gunk out of your fave pipe/chillum, etc.Also, my error I guess not reviewing the product carefully before purchasing, but my intended use, face mask manufacturing, has been ruled out due to spiky bristles that run the length of the pipe cleaner. Who knew? To be fair, the idea that these are suitable for "arts and crafts projects for many pre-school, kindergarten, elementary and jr. and high school teachers" is also a bit of a stretch in my opinion. Under the circumstances, knowing in advance that many are seeking pipe cleaners for the purpose of making homemade facemasks for safety from Covid-19, may I suggest the seller make the effort to clearly communicate that these are likely inappropriate for face mask use. Be safe out there!I've always used a Canadian brand because it's all that's available in the tobacco shops here in Canada, but they always leave little bits of cotton fluff throughout both the tobacco pipe, and the vaporizer. I decided to give these a try, and I'm not disappointed. Not a bit of fluff left behind, and the hard bristles give it a good scrub.These are perfect for cleaning any thing that would require a pipecleaner size scrubber. I use it to clean my pax 3 and it does a phenomenal job. Just be careful when handling the metal barbs on the cleaner are sharp and can hurt if u squeeze too hard.Excellent price and hard bristles clean perfectly by dipping in isopropyl alcohol. Will definitely purchase again.
