Professional 17″ Velcro Backed Grit Brushes for Rotary Floor Machines

The 17″ Malish Flex Scrub Velcro Backed Grit Brushes combine the convenience of a traditional floor pad with the superior cleaning performance of flexible abrasive bristles. Designed for professional floor cleaning and maintenance, these grit brushes reach deep into grout lines, textured flooring and uneven surfaces where conventional floor pads simply cannot.

Suitable for use with most 175–350 RPM rotary floor machines, auto scrubbers, ride-on scrubbers and orbital machines, the Flex Scrub system provides exceptional cleaning performance while lasting significantly longer than traditional floor pads. Whether you’re stripping old floor finishes, deep cleaning heavily soiled concrete or carrying out routine maintenance, there is a grit option to suit every application.

Direct Fit to Velcro Pad Drivers

Unlike many floor brushes, the Malish Flex Scrub Grit Brushes attach directly to a standard hook-and-loop (Velcro) pad driver using the supplied Malish Flex Coupler. Installation is quick and straightforward, allowing you to change brushes in seconds.

If your pad driver has a centre clutch or retaining cup, the centre section of the Flex Coupler can simply be trimmed to provide the correct fit without affecting performance.
