Brushes for Swing-Style Floor Buffer/Scrubbers

More durable than pads, these brushes are a good choice if you have an uneven floor or grout lines.

The clutch plate is universal, so it attaches to most buffer/scrubbers. These brushes are not for use with larger machines. See Brushes for Powered Floor Sweeper/Cleaners.

Steel bristles are for stripping and scrubbing concrete.

Natural fiber bristles are for heavy duty scrubbing.

Polypropylene bristles are economical yet durable. They are good for general scrubbing.

Nylon bristles are more flexible and longer lasting than polypropylene. Before using on carpet, break in brush by briefly running machine over a rough, dry surface. Brushes for 15” base diameter machines and larger have holes for use with solution tanks.

Silicon-carbide-impregnated nylon bristles are very aggressive and strip finishes from tile and linoleum. They are excellent for heavy buildups.

Also Available: Brushes with other clutch plates, for other base diameters, and in different materials. Please ask for 7258T999 and specify machine make, model, base diameter, and brush material.
