Couldn't load pickup availability
The Ortofon Stylus Brush Fibre is a fibre brush for cleaning the stylus, which you run briefly along the cantilever at every record change.
A small thing with great leverage: dust on the stylus sounds like crackle and gnaws at stylus and groove – and the brush is the cheapest insurance against it.
Why the Stylus Brush Fibre?
Every record side carries dust into the groove, and it collects at the stylus tip. With the brush you remove it dry and without liquid. According to Ortofon, you brush a few times along the cantilever towards the stylus tip – with every new record and every side change.
What you get
A fibre brush with a black handle, handy enough for the drawer next to the turntable. No batteries, no cleaning fluid, no hassle.
Who is the Stylus Brush Fibre for?
For everyone who plays records – from beginners to SPU owners. Straight talk: Always brush from the back (from the cartridge body) forward to the stylus tip, never sideways or against that direction – otherwise you risk the cantilever. If you cannot do it calmly, let us show you.
Our verdict
Sixteen francs for cleaner styli and longer enjoyment of your cartridge. That is about the best value for money we stock in the whole shop.

Frequently asked questions
How often should I brush the stylus?
According to Ortofon, with every new record and every side change, so several times an evening. A few gentle strokes are enough. It keeps the stylus tip free of dust and protects stylus and groove, without liquids or extra cleaners.
Which direction do I brush?
Always from the cartridge body forward to the stylus tip, along the cantilever. Never sideways and never back from the tip. That way you do not push the cantilever out of position or sweep dirt into the cartridge.
Does the brush replace record cleaning?
No. It cleans the stylus, not the record. Clean records keep the stylus clean longer, but if you play dusty records you will brush more often. For the records themselves we carry brushes and cleaners among the turntable accessories.
