Abstract
A brush includes a bristle section and a base. The bristle section includes fiber bundles and binding fibers, which bind and couple the fiber bundles together. The base has a clamping part, which clamps part of the bristle section. The fiber bundles are arranged in a row in a direction perpendicular to a direction in which fibers of the fiber bundles extend. The binding fibers are sequentially adjacent in a direction in which the fibers of the fiber bundles extend. The clamping part clamps part of the bristle section to cover the binding fibers.
