Square Scrub

About Square Scrub

Square Scrub specialises in orbital floor machines, an alternative to traditional rotary buffers. The square pad pattern reaches into corners and along walls without re positioning, and the high frequency oscillation lifts floor finish faster with less chemical.

Product Range

• Pivot orbital machines. 14 inch square pad orbital with adjustable handle. Strips and scrubs floors.
• Doodle Scrub. Compact battery orbital for spot work.
• EBG (Edge, Backwall, Grout) machines. Specialty heads for tight spaces.
• Pads and accessories. Sanding screens, prep pads and specialty abrasives.

Who It Is For

Contract floor finishers, school district floor crews, gym floor refinishers, concrete preparation contractors. Orbital machines strip floor finish in roughly 1/3 the chemical and 1/2 the time of rotary buffers, which makes them popular for stripping projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an orbital floor machine?

Orbital machines vibrate a square or rectangular pad in a fast circular motion (3000+ orbits per minute) instead of spinning a round pad. The high frequency motion lifts soil and finish faster with less chemical and less operator fatigue.

Can a Square Scrub machine sand floors?

Yes. With the right abrasive screen, Square Scrub orbital machines screen sand wood floors and prepare concrete for coatings. Use a fine grit screen for between coat sanding; coarse grit for finish removal and concrete prep.

How much chemical does an orbital save?

Field tests show orbital machines strip floor finish with 25 to 50 percent less stripping chemical than equivalent rotary buffers. The fast oscillating action breaks the finish bond mechanically, so less chemical is needed to soften it.

What warranty does Square Scrub offer?

Square Scrub offers a 1 year warranty on the full machine and 3 year coverage on the gear case. Motors carry the standard 1 year warranty.
