Developed by Tucker USA to clean 6-12 monthly jobs and give them a good scrub with heavy alu poles,the tips splay and the inner section scrubs, probably the best on the market at what they do, but a bit heavy. Copied by many over here. Helps keep the glass cool under the working area at 40 degrees, they also do a sponge centre to do this.

Ionics make their own interpretation of it. As do Omni If it says Tucker on the label then thats what it is. But it is heavy. Call by the Tucker stand at Windex to see their fullest range available.

The 11 inch one weighs around 200g , so twice the weight of a Bentley but half the weight of a Vikan, Luke

Unfortunately you have to phone them up to order it but its called the "multipole" brush and cost around 21. I get the Ionics catalogue sent to me every few months, Luke

about 3-4 days, or you can just phone them up to order but make sure you ask for 2mm jets because I think they fit 3mm as standard, Luke

The Ionics brush is that good? I like the idea of half the weight of the Vikan.

Our duel trim brushes come in three grades
 1)General window cleaning identical to Tuckers
2) cladding + window cleaning
3) course bristle for stone, brick etc.
The bristles are made by Dupont

SO, what should I buy?

The Multipole Dual Trim, or the normal Dual trim?

A Tucker brush head is lighter than an Ionics commercial brush head. Omnipoles brush head is lighter than a tucker and allows more water through as it has less bristles but is more floppy and doesn't scrub as good in my opinion
