The 5 Inches Venom Silicone Carbide Antique / Leathering / Finishing Brushes — Snail-Lock / 5/8-11 Dual-Use are high-performance abrasive brushes designed for Quartzite, Granite, Natural Stone, Marble, and Quartz.

Silicone carbide brushes produce rich, soft, natural leathered and antiqued textures, making them perfect for creating deeper, more organic finishes.

Dual-Use Design — One Brush, Two Ways

Each brush includes both Snail-Lock and 5/8-11 female thread built into the same body. This allows fabricators to run the same brush on:

• Snail-Lock plates (edge machines and line polishers)

• 5/8-11 threaded polishers and wet grinders

No adapters required.
One brush fits every machine in the shop.

WHY PURE SILICONE CARBIDE BRUSHES

Silicone carbide brushes use abrasive filaments that create a softer, deeper, richer leather pattern compared to diamond-only brushes.

Advantages of Silicone Carbide Brushes

• Produces warm, deep leather textures

• Gives the surface a smoother, more natural hand-feel

• Excellent color enhancement on many stone types

• Perfect for rustic, matte, or soft antique finishes

• Ideal for refinishing older leathered surfaces

Silicone carbide brushes excel when the goal is a rich, organic, blended leather finish rather than a sharp-cut texture.

RECOMMENDATION FOR BEST RESULTS

Many fabrication shops achieve the best leathered finishes by using all three brush types:

• Venom Hybrid Diamond and Silicone Carbide Combo Brushes

• Venom Pure Silicone Carbide Brushes

• Venom Pure Diamond Brushes

Each brush type produces a different texture depth, feel, and pattern.
Using all three gives fabricators complete control over the final look, from deep rustic textures to soft matte to tight modern finishes.

We recommend purchasing all three types to achieve the highest-quality, customizable leathered finishes.
