copper scrubber

Metal cleaning pad

A copper scrubber is a cleaning pad made of coiled or woven copper mesh, used for scouring pots, pans, and other cookware.

The soft metal removes stuck-on food without scratching most surfaces.

Copper scrubbers are also used in plumbing to clean pipe fittings before soldering, and notoriously as filters in crack pipes.
