Does this brush have monofilament fibres? will it fit a vikan thread, do they have pencil jets?

Yes there mono and i`ve just brought that 1 off of EBAY but not that 1 i hope.There designed to go on there own poles which in reality are no different to the extender range and universal,it`s got the same thread as the vikan brushes.

I just bought one aswell, they went fast last time, so I thought I'll just get it and then if it's wrong I'll sell it on the forum

Don`t worry if you`ve got standard threads on your poles it will fit.

Yes they will fit all of Gardiners poles as they have the standard size thread,alex also fits this thread on the end of the G-fit goosenecks and the superlite ones.

yeah. I've got vikan style threads, I've already decided I don't like Vikans!! i also have a  Brodex 25ft pro long with a goosneck and fixed Vikan, if this Ionics one is any good, I'll buy another, grind all the plastic off and screw it on the goosneck

You can also buy goosenecks now that will screw on the end of your pole,Alex or essentially pure.

trouble with that is that on my pro long Brodex, they have glued another thread over the standard thread to take the gooseneck, so I will have to get somebody to make me a conversion, If you know anybody that works with metal, especially threads, please tell me, Luke

Buy the thread i mentioned cut the top of your pole and glue the new thread in overnight there you go,your pole will now take any brush and 1 of these screw on goosenecks.

trouble is that goosensck was £124, I didnt pay for it, it was thrown in because of a faulty pole they sent me, they also gave me 15% off my next Brodex order!!

yes BUT you are all missing the point Ionic brushes just dont last , we can only make
them last a month or so all the end bristles curl up I know Vikans are heavy but they
are on there second year now and still nearly look the same as when bought!!

If they curl up just place them in boiling water,when the bristles cool down they should have reshaped thereselves.

I think the prob is that using hot water all the time makes the end curl up
But the vikan dont ???
