Features

24.7 cm Long Body for Deep Straws and Drains: The brush is about 24.7 cm long, so it reaches well past the opening of a straw, lid or drain. You can push it in deep and clean farther than a short brush allows.

Extra-Fine Tapered Nylon Head, About 7 mm Across and 30 mm Long: The small tapered head is made of fine nylon bristles. It slips into narrow straws and small openings, then rubs the inner wall as you push and pull.

Free-Bending 24.7 cm Shaft for Curved Straw Paths: The body bends freely, so you can shape it to follow the curves in lids, caps and spouts. That makes tight, angled spots easier to reach.

Pack States Straws Up to About 40 cm: Our pack says this brush cleans straws up to about 40 cm. That covers long straws and tall bottle straws.

Loop Handle About 15 mm Wide and 5 mm Thick: The loop-shaped handle is marked on the pack as easy to hold. It gives you a steady grip while you push and pull the brush.

3 Materials: Stainless Steel, Polypropylene and Nylon: The handle is stainless steel and polypropylene, and the brush head is nylon. Simple materials, in a plain white finish.

Slim 1.5 x 0.6 cm Profile: The brush measures about 24.7 x 1.5 x 0.6 cm overall. It is thin enough to fit into narrow spaces and easy to store.

Handle Made in Japan, Model KB-821: The handle is made in Japan and the brush head is made in China. The white straw cleaning brush is sold as model KB-821.

Benefits

Clean the whole inside of your straw, end to end: Our brush is 24.7 cm long, and our pack says it washes straws up to about 40 cm. Push and pull the fine nylon head through, and it reaches deep into long and tall-bottle straws. You finish with a straw you feel good about using again.

Follows the curves inside lids, caps, and bottle straws: The 24.7 cm shaft bends freely, so the brush follows curved straw paths in drinking lids, flask caps, and baby bottle lids. You do not have to fight the angle, and tight spots feel easy to reach instead of frustrating.

Slips into narrow straws and small openings: The tapered extra-fine nylon head is about 7 mm across and 30 mm long, so it slides into slim straws and small openings where bulkier brushes may not fit. You get to the spot you meant to clean, without forcing it.

A loop handle that is easy to hold: The loop handle is about 15 mm wide and 5 mm thick, and our pack marks it as easy to hold. You can push and pull with steady control, so the cleaning feels smooth and calm.

Reaches out-of-sight spots, including sink drains: Slim at 1.5 x 0.6 cm, the brush goes its full 24.7 cm length into a sink drain, and it fits straw lids and caps too. Out-of-sight spots get brushed, so you can relax about what you cannot see.

Handle made in Japan from steel and polypropylene: Our handle is made in Japan from stainless steel and polypropylene, and the brush head is nylon. Three plain materials make one slim 24.7 cm tool, so you can pick it up and get to work with confidence.

How to Use

Hold the brush by its loop handle.

Bend the shaft to match the path of the straw.

Slide the tapered nylon head into the straw opening.

Push and pull the brush along the inside of the straw.

Who Is This For

The Straw-Bottle Owner: You fill a tumbler with a long straw, and you want the inside of that straw to feel as fresh as the outside. Many brushes are short, thick or stiff, so they stop long before the far end. This one is built for exactly that job. Its 24.7 cm body bends to follow curves, and the tapered extra-fine nylon head slips into narrow straws, lid spouts and baby bottle lid straws. Push and pull, and the bristles rub along the inner wall to loosen residue. The loop handle gives you an easy hold, and the pack states it cleans straws up to about 40 cm. If straws are part of your day, this brush is made for you.

Product Story

The story of this brush began with a simple problem: the straws inside lids and flask caps are narrow and curved, and thicker brushes can struggle to follow them. So we set out to make one that could. We gave it a body 24.7 cm long so it reaches deep, a shaft that bends freely so it follows each curve, and a tapered nylon head about 7 mm across and 30 mm long so it slips into small openings. The handle was made in Japan from stainless steel and polypropylene, and the brush head in China. We showed it at work in a drinking straw lid, a flask cap, a baby bottle lid, and a full 24.7 cm down a sink drain. Today it is a slim white brush, model KB-821, ready for the narrow places you want to reach.
