Rotary abrasive brush for deburring and method of manufacturing

A rotary tool containing a core hub with helical groove on its outer surface filled in with continuous abrasive filament formed by folding of a pre-cut abrasive sheet including multiple bristle like straps extending radially from the hub. The method of manufacturing includes the steps of providing a hub, and forming a helical groove with inverted V-shaped cross-section along its cylindrical surface. An abrasive element is wound around the hub so that the folded edge is fed in the V-grove and is buckled inside the groove providing, along with securing it by sufficient pre-tension of the abrasive element, a secure anchoring of the abrasive element through locking of the buckled edge. The abrasive filament is formed from a roll of abrasive cloth as one continuous piece using a cutting operation and is provided with center-line perforations. These perforations assist folding the filament by providing it with discrete and desired flexibility as well as weakening it in such way that it assists the process of folded edge buckling inside the groove during winding and therefore forms a tight anchoring junction with the hub without need for an adhesive.
