INTERCLEAN’S MODERN BRUSH DESIGN
A modern brush design is used across all of InterClean’s XJ automatic friction wash systems. This design offers the option of brush or touchless washing of the front surfaces, then wraps the brushes around the back of the vehicle for rear surface cleaning.
Chasing Wrap Brushes
Rear brushes are designed to follow or “chase” the back of the vehicle instead of “swiping” at the surfaces, cleaning the rear of the vehicle in an overlapping pattern as it proceeds through the wash.
- Chasing wrap movement increases amount of time the rear brushes are in contact with the vehicles surface without increasing the overall wash time.
- Soft yet durable brushes constructed of either 1mm thick strands of polyethylene thread, or a non-water absorbing, ultra soft foam, clean the vehicle without damaging any surfaces or finishes on the vehicle, even after an extended number of uses.
Brush Structure
Even pressure from our brush supported at both the top and bottom combined with the quick friction movement of our chasing wrap brushes are key design elements of the XJ friction wash system. This combination results in a stronger wash capability and reduced amount of detergent needed per wash compared to traditional friction brush wash systems.
- Fixed top and bottom mounts ensure that even pressure is applied along the entire brush.
- Robust galvanized or stainless steel frame is designed for many years of continuous operation.
- Brush pressure or "crush” is adjustable and controlled by air over oil cylinders, providing smooth fluid movements.

Why Use InterClean’s Brush Wash System
There are numerous benefits offered through InterClean’s drive through automatic friction wash systems.
Innovative Brush Design
Double hung, chasing wrap brushes are a key element used the design of InterClean’s heavy duty vehicle XJ friction washes. This unique brush construction ensures that even pressure is applied from the top to the bottom any vehicle.
The wrap around action of the brushes also shortens the cleaning time by “chasing” the vehicle to wash its rear surfaces as it travels through the wash. No stopping is required.
Highly Customizable
Wash options in the XJ friction wash series are effective as a stand alone transit wash or train wash solution, or can be designed as a hybrid system combining the cleaning power of the brushes with intensity of our touchless wash applications. These modules can also be combined with a number of add-on options such as blowers, chassis washes, water recycling systems and more.
Sustainability
Each of our XJ brush wash systems can be designed for use with recycled water and operate with the optimum amount of water and detergents, protecting you, your vehicle, and the environment. We use our EQ100 water recycling systems that provide water volumes up to 300 GPM to provide the same high-quality clean with a fraction of the water usage.
To minimize maintenance, the system is designed to automatically circulate and aerate the water and features a self cleaning stainless steel filter. This system is pre-wired and pre-plumbed and mounted on a skid.
Custom Engineered
InterClean’s friction brush wash systems are not one-size-fits-all. When you work with InterClean to determine the best wash system for your vehicle, we take the time to understand the types of vehicles you maintain, the amount and type of dirt or debris that needs to be removed, the types of corrosives your vehicles are exposed to, the water restrictions we’ll be working with, and of course, your budget.
