The individual strands are extremely thin/fine.


It looks like the one I referred to is a specialized one for fiber
optic connectors. For general electrical contact cleaning the simple
pencil style would probably be as good or better, and for 1/4 the
price.

It looks similar to a mechanical pencil - when the tip wears down, you
push more of the cartridge out. Eventually it's used up and you replace
the cartridge. Right?


Yep.


You will lose it or some kid will borrow it long before the cartridge is used
up.
