For example, most standard tufted brushes are manufactured by first drilling holes into a brush frame, and then filling the holes (mechanically) with bristles. The bristles are anchored in the holes and hence the brush frame, by forcing a metal fastener into the holes with the bristles, thereby compressing and anchoring the bristles in the hole. This process results in brus...
