Vikan 31783 Push Broom 16 Inches Polyester Bristle

Product Description

The VIKAN 31783 is a 16-inch-wide push broom designed for dry surface sweeping in commercial and industrial environments. It features stiff, flagged polyester bristles measuring 2 inches in length, mounted in a plastic block. The flagged bristle tips help capture fine particles, making this broom effective on smooth and semi-smooth hard floors. The block connects to a standard European threaded handle, sold separately. At 1.3 pounds, the head is lightweight enough for extended use without fatigue. This broom is a practical choice for janitorial staff, sanitation crews, and facility maintenance professionals working in food processing, manufacturing, or institutional settings.

This broom head is suited for dry sweeping applications on hard floors in commercial kitchens, warehouses, production floors, and other facilities where fine particle pickup is a priority. The stiff polyester bristles resist moisture and many common cleaning chemicals, helping maintain performance across repeated use. The blue block color supports color-coding programs commonly used in food service and sanitation environments to prevent cross-contamination between zones. It is not rated for wet surfaces or outdoor use.

Installation Notes

Attachment to a European threaded handle requires hand-tightening only - no tools are needed. Verify the handle thread type before ordering, as European threaded fittings are not universally interchangeable with other thread standards. Inspect the bristle block and thread connection periodically for wear and replace the head when bristle deformation reduces sweep effectiveness.
