PuritanMedical 6" Cotton Swab w/Wooden Handle - 806-WC (Box of 500)

We use Puritan 806-WC at my workplace. This applicator is indispensable for our operation. Uses are too many to list.These were purchased for personal use, the Amazon price better than most industrial suppliers.The cotton is bonded well to the wooden dowel. There is enough cotton to keep the dowel from poking through when used with some pressure (not in your ears kids ;) ).Great for cleaning threads after polishing or machining, detail cleaning, application of grease or lubricants, etc.Swabs were shipped in a padded envelope, I was expecting to find some broken applicators. All have been damage free so far.

It is the perfect size to fit in a metal tube which needs to be clean.And I might say the sturdiness of the product works well, but also absorbency and value for money too.

I purchased these and with the shorter length on cotton swabs, decided to get the longer length.I use these to clean my water pumps in our pond and aquarium and the filter containers. They allow me to get to the bottom of the magnetic chambers and clear out sludge easily so that the pumps work efficiently and the filter container are easier to clean the side and bottoms. I am also build plastic models and use them as paint brushes to reach difficult parts of the model that needed touch up or even a different color. They make great disposable paint brushes for small model projects. Great price and who knows what else we will find on using these.

It's impossible to find wood stick swabs in stores anymore. These are high quality, very long and the cotton is tight at the end. Cotton on 1 end only, I use them for a variety of purposes and they work great for everything I use them for.

I've used this product for years and years and YEARS!!
