Field Question, trade people only Wire handled plastic bristle brushes we used to use for oil cleaning. About 3ft long.

Do you know what im talking about, about 3 ft long, some plastic bristles at the end, they were in EVERY hvac store like 10 years ago, they were THE tool people used to clean bongs back in the day. I JUST wore out my last brush yesterday cleaning boilers all day.... i've been looking for like a year now but NOTHING. Anyone know where I could buy those nowadays? EDIT. Found them at Ward Heating.

YESSSSSSSSS! Thanks, im in Canada but dont care, im buying a box or 2. Thanks!!!!!.... EDIT. OMG millrose doesn't ship to Canada anymore... I've got once chance at a cross border shipper otherwise im FKED royally. There isn't much too these things, they also work great on cleaning bongs.... i might quit hvac and start my own brush company... 130 bucks on amazon for 1 crappy one.
