Mercury 1170 rpm High-Speed Buffer / Polisher

The Mercury 1170 rpm High-Speed Buffer / Polisher is a robust floor machine designed for achieving and maintaining a high-gloss finish on various hard floor surfaces. It operates by rapidly spinning a pad to create friction and heat, which polishes and burnishes the floor's finish. This machine is commonly used in commercial and industrial settings to enhance floor appearance and extend the life of floor finishes.

Features & Specifications

• Key Features:: This high-speed buffer is engineered for consistent performance without overloading circuits, a common issue with higher RPM machines. It is suitable for daily maintenance programs.
• Motor: Equipped with a 1.5 hp D/C Rectified motor, designed to eliminate circuit burn-outs and startup torque problems.
• Speed: Operates at 1170 RPM, providing effective burnishing that is gentler on floor finishes compared to higher RPM machines, thus extending their longevity, especially with frequent use.
• Deck Design: Features a 19" polished aluminum long-deck, constructed from solid cast aluminum for durability and stability during operation. The long-deck design helps ensure balanced and efficient buffing.
• Drive System: Utilizes a belt-driven system for smooth and consistent buffing.
• Amperage Draw: Balanced for even amperage draw, allowing for full pad contact without overloading electrical circuits.
• Versatile Applications: Ideal for high-speed floor care, including producing a quick shine on coated VCT floors, polishing terrazzo and marble with appropriate pads, final buffing after tile and grout cleaning to remove residue, and buffing wood floors.
• Pad Holder: Includes a flexible pad holder with a threaded pad-centering device that adapts to floor irregularities, promoting an even shine.
• Chassis: All-metal chassis adds weight for enhanced pad pressure, contributing to a faster, more durable, and brighter shine.
• Safety Features: Designed with an interlock switch for dual-hand control and non-conductive dual triggers to minimize shock potential.
• Wheels: Features 6” non-marking operating wheels and separate 4” non-marking transport wheels to prevent tracking contaminants.
• Handle: A fully adjustable 48” handle provides comfortable operation for various users.
• Bumper: A 19” apron with a non-marking, full-wrap bumper protects walls and baseboards.
• Low Profile: The low-profile drive apron allows easy access under counter coves and beds.
• Warranty: Comes with a 5-year warranty on the motor and chassis.
• Power Cord: Includes one 50-foot, 14/3-gauge safety power cord. The motor plugs into the cable at the handle base for simplified maintenance.
• Weight: The machine weighs 78 pounds (DC-19-1170 model weighs 84 lbs).
• Manufacturing: Manufactured in the USA.
• MPN: MERC-1640

This floor machine efficiently restores and maintains the polished appearance of hard floors, supporting ongoing floor care programs with dependable performance and user safety.
