brushlike
Like stiff fibers
Resembling a brush in form or texture—having stiff, densely clustered bristles or fibers: brushlike hairs on the caterpillar's back, the brushlike tip of the paintbrush plant.
The word describes things that share a brush's characteristic structure rather than its function.
