An escalator safety brush, moving walk safety brush, or deflector strip brush is a long continuous brush made of stiff bristles running along the skirting panel of the moving steps. Deflector brushes are widely installed on escalators and moving walks as a result of reported cases of side entrapment accidents.
A lot of countries have enforced safety practice to install a deflector device along the side skirting (of escalator and moving walk) to minimize the risk of trapping between the step and the skirting. The escalator brush provides a tactile reminder to passengers to keep their feet away from the hazard area, therefore it is also known as the escalator skirt guard.
There are a few sizes for the metal channel strip of this escalator safety strip brush, do contact us for more information.
