53515
The Vikan 53515 Flexible Stainless-Steel Handle, Ø5mm, 755mm is designed for effective cleaning of curved pipes, sight-glasses on large tanks and transfer hoses in food and beverage manufacturing environments.
This flexible cleaning rod can be used with compatible Vikan tube cleaner heads to help remove dirt and residue from hard-to-reach internal surfaces. Its slim, flexible design makes it suitable for cleaning curved and confined areas where conventional rigid cleaning tools may be difficult to manoeuvre.
Featuring a hygienic design for easy cleaning, the Vikan 53515 is ideal for hygiene-critical food production facilities looking to maintain high cleaning standards and support their HACCP-based food safety procedures.
The screw-thread connection allows compatible tube cleaner heads to be attached securely. For additional reach, the handle can be extended in 750mm increments using the Vikan 5346 Flexible Extension Handle.
Effective cleaning of pipework, hoses and other product-contact equipment is an important part of food safety management. The Vikan 53515 can be incorporated into a site's documented cleaning procedures to help address hard-to-reach areas that may otherwise be overlooked.
For food manufacturers working within HACCP-based systems and recognised food safety standards, consider the following good practices:
The handle supports cleaning operations but does not, by itself, guarantee HACCP compliance or eliminate contamination risks. Compliance depends on the site's complete food safety management system and validated cleaning procedures.
