3M 7000045865 High Productivity Floor Stripping Pad 13 in

Product Description

The 3M 7000045865 is a high productivity floor stripping pad engineered for fast, thorough removal of old floor finish, embedded dirt, and surface buildup. Its open web construction is the defining design feature: stripping solution flows freely through the pad matrix, continuously rinsing loosened soil out of the pad to prevent loading. This keeps the pad face in consistent contact with the floor surface throughout the stripping pass, maintaining cutting efficiency from the first pass to the last. The pad is sized at 13 inches and is rated for use at low rotary speeds. Installation and operation are handled by professional floor care and janitorial service technicians.

This pad is designed for use on hard floor surfaces requiring periodic finish removal prior to refinishing or maintenance coating. It operates on standard low-speed rotary floor machines or automatic scrubber equipment running in the 175 to 600 RPM range. Typical applications include stripping vinyl composition tile, sheet vinyl, and similar resilient floor surfaces in commercial, institutional, and industrial settings. The open web design reduces the frequency of pad rinsing during the stripping operation, improving productivity on large floor areas.
