ABSTRACT:
A broom hub is provided for use as a component in the manufacture of brooms which includes a wire retention mechanism. Generally, brooms include a handle, a plurality of bristles extending therefrom, and a wire wrapped around the bristles to secure the bristles to the handle. Specifically, the broom hub of this invention includes a sleeve for receiving the handle and a wire retention mechanism disposed on a sleeve. Preferably, the wire retention mechanism is configured to grasp the wire. Accordingly, the bristles are secured to the handle between the broom hub and the wire.
