The Viper LS160 (Low Speed) Buffer Range.
Low-speed buffers, also known as low-speed floor machines or floor scrubbers, are industrial and commercial cleaning equipment designed for a range of floor maintenance tasks. Unlike high-speed floor buffers (burnishers) that operate at high rotational speeds for polishing and shining floors, low-speed buffers function at lower speeds and are primarily used for floor scrubbing, stripping, and other heavy-duty cleaning processes.
Here are some key features and applications of low-speed buffers:
Lower Rotational Speed:
Low-speed buffers operate at lower rotational speeds. This slower speed is more suitable for cleaning, scrubbing, and removing dirt, grime, and old floor finishes.
Heavy-Duty Cleaning:
They are ideal for heavy-duty floor cleaning tasks, such as removing wax or finish build up, scrubbing hard-to-clean surfaces, and cleaning grout lines.
Versatile Applications:
Low-speed buffers can be used on a variety of hard floor surfaces, including vinyl, tile, concrete, and hardwood, depending on the type of pads or brushes used.
Maneuverability:
They are designed for ease of use and maneuverability, with features like adjustable handles and swivel casters that allow operators to navigate around obstacles and corners.
Common applications for low-speed buffers include:
- Floor Stripping: Removing old floor wax, finish, or sealant in preparation for re-coating.
- Floor Scrubbing: Cleaning and removing dirt, stains, and grime from hard floors.
- Grout Cleaning: Cleaning and rejuvenating grout lines between tiles.
- Floor Polishing: Polishing and restoring the shine of hard floors with appropriate polishing pads.
- Floor Maintenance: Regular maintenance and cleaning of commercial and industrial floors.
Low-speed buffers play a crucial role in floor care and maintenance, especially in commercial settings such as schools, hospitals, warehouses, and retail spaces.
