3M 50048000000000 Floor Stripping Pad 20in Brown 5-pack

Product Description

The 3M 50048000000000 is a low-speed, high-productivity floor stripping pad built for wet and dry stripping applications in preparation for floor recoating. Constructed from non-woven nylon and polyester fiber, this 20-inch diameter pad conforms to uneven floor surfaces to maintain consistent contact during use. Rated to last up to 25 times longer than standard floor pads, it is designed to be washable and reusable, reducing pad replacement frequency. At 5.00 pounds per case, the pad is suited for commercial and institutional floor maintenance environments where throughput and pad longevity are priorities.

This pad is intended for use with low-speed rotary floor machines in stripping applications where old finish must be removed before recoating. It is appropriate for resilient tile, vinyl composition tile, and similar hard floor surfaces. The case pack includes 5 pads per case, making it practical for facilities maintenance crews, janitorial contractors, and floor care professionals managing multi-room or multi-floor projects. The brown color indicates a stripping-grade abrasiveness level consistent with industry conventions for heavy-duty floor maintenance work.

Installation Notes

Secure the pad to the floor machine driver using the appropriate pad holder for 20-inch equipment before operation.

Follow the floor finish manufacturer and chemical stripper manufacturer guidelines for dilution ratios and dwell times when performing wet stripping.
