Which scenario best demonstrates the correct use of a wire brush in an ITI workshop?
Cleaning a metal pipe before using a scriber
A wire brush is a cleaning hand tool whose stiff metal bristles scrape away rust, scale, dirt and old paint from a metal surface.
Before marking out with a scriber, the surface must be clean so the scribed lines are sharp, visible and accurate; a wire brush is used to clean the pipe for this purpose.
Cutting is done with a hacksaw, measuring with a rule or tape, and painting with a paint brush, so none of those describe the correct use of a wire brush.
Hence, the answer is Cleaning a metal pipe before using a scriber.
