The TS37K Moistening Brushes are a complete OEM replacement set for Better Packages BP755e series and older Better Pack gummed tape dispensers. Each set includes two brushes, and both are required for a full replacement. A quantity of one equals one complete set.
Properly functioning brushes are essential for reactivating the adhesive on water-activated tape, ensuring strong carton seals. For best performance, remove and wash the brushes every one to two weeks using mild dish soap without moisturizers, then rinse thoroughly. Reinstall with the high points of the brushes facing the front of the tank. Replace the set every 3 to 5 years or sooner if worn, clogged, or if tape is not bonding properly.
Designed for the BP755e series and many legacy Better Pack machines. See the Fits on Models tab for the full compatibility list.
Note: One set includes two brushes. Both must be installed together for proper operation.

1) How often should I clean the brushes? Every 1 to 2 weeks, or more often in heavy use, place a few drops of dishwashing detergent (without hand softeners) in the palm of your hand and then swishing the brushes back and forth to remove the dirt and grime build up. Rinse well. Replace every 3 to 5 years based on condition.
2) When should I replace the moistening brushes? If the brushes are full of dried glues, if the brushes are damaged, if the tape is getting wet but not sticking to the box, if the brushes look burnt are all indications they need to be replaced. Try to clean first, but as the most important function of the tape dispenser, it's vital the brushes work.
3) How many brushes come in one set? One set (quantity of 1) includes two brushes. Both are needed for a complete replacement.
4) Should I buy refurbished or used brushes? Moistening brushes are like paint brushes. Once the glues have dried in the bristles they are damaged. Removing the hardened glues will also remove bristles rending the brushes less effective. When adding the cost of shipping, used brushes are not a good buy versus the cost of new.
