Abstract
A wire cleaning device using non-woven fibrous material rolls to wipe the surface of a wire to remove oil, dirt, and other contaminants. The device has a top feeder roller and a top receiving roller, and a complementary bottom feeder roller and receiving roller. The top and bottom rollers provide two sheets of material through which a wire is fed. The material sheets wipe the surface of the wire as it travels from the feeder roller to the receiving roller, providing a continually clean wiping surface.
