Product Overview

The Malish 19″ Bristle Splash Guard is designed for use with 17″ floor machines during wet cleaning, rotary scrubbing and polishing. It fits around the machine drum to help contain water, cleaning solution and slurry within the working area.

Its flexible bristle skirt provides an alternative to conventional rubber or plastic guards. The individual bristles move across the floor independently, allowing the guard to pass more easily over slight changes in height, uneven joints and lippage.

Key Benefits

• Designed for 17″ floor machines.
• Helps control splashing during wet cleaning, scrubbing and polishing.
• Contains water, cleaning solution and slurry around the machine.
• Suitable for work carried out with floor pads or brushes.
• Flexible bristles move over slight surface irregularities and lippage.
• Less likely to catch or fold beneath the machine than a rigid splash guard.
• Supports smoother machine movement across tiled and stone floors.
• Helps keep the surrounding working area cleaner.

Applications

• Wet floor cleaning
• Rotary machine scrubbing
• Tile and natural stone cleaning
• Floor polishing with pads
• Brush cleaning
• Wet floor restoration and maintenance

Suitable Floors

The flexible bristle construction is particularly useful on tiled and natural stone floors where joints, slight lippage or small changes in surface height can cause conventional rigid guards to catch. Each bristle can flex independently as the machine moves across the floor.

Compatibility

This 19″ splash guard is intended for 17″ floor machines and can be used when operating with compatible floor pads or brushes. Compatibility with a specific machine make or model should be checked before purchase where the fitting requirements are uncertain.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size floor machine is this splash guard designed for?

It is designed for use with 17″ floor machines. The splash guard itself is listed as 19″.

Can it be used for wet scrubbing?

Yes. It is intended to help contain water, cleaning solution and slurry during wet cleaning and rotary scrubbing.

Can the guard be used with both pads and brushes?

Yes. The supplied product information states that it is suitable for floor-machine work using brushes or floor pads.

Why use bristles instead of a rubber or plastic guard?

The individual bristles flex as the machine travels across the floor. This helps the guard move over slight lippage and uneven joints without the complete skirt catching, lifting or being pulled beneath the machine.
