Powr-Flite 18 inch Soft Nylon Scrub Brush SN218M

The Powr-Flite SN218M scrub brush is an 18-inch soft nylon brush for Powr-Flite 20-inch 1.5 HP rotary floor machines. It mounts directly on the machine’s clutch plate, and its soft white nylon bristles are made for gentle, everyday cleaning — daily damp scrubbing, light buffing, and general maintenance of finished, sealed, and smooth hard floors where an aggressive brush would scratch or dull the finish.

Soft nylon is the brush to use when you want to clean and revive a floor without cutting into it: polished VCT, sealed concrete, terrazzo, and finished wood. The flexible bristles lay solution down evenly and lift light soil and scuffs, making the SN218M a good all-purpose brush for lobbies, hallways, retail floors, and other high-traffic finished surfaces. This brush replaces the older Powr-Flite SS118.

Choosing the Right Brush Grit

The SN218M soft nylon brush is the gentlest of the three Powr-Flite 18-inch scrub brushes. Use the soft nylon SN218M for routine cleaning and buffing of finished floors, step up to the hard poly HP218M for heavy scrubbing and stripping on textured surfaces, and choose the medium-grit MG218M for the most aggressive deep-strip work. Match the brush to the job and the machine.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Powr-Flite SN218M scrub brush do on a 20-inch floor machine?

The Powr-Flite SN218M is an 18-inch soft nylon scrub brush that mounts on a Powr-Flite 20-inch 1.5 HP rotary floor machine. Its soft white nylon bristles are gentle enough for daily cleaning, damp scrubbing, and light buffing of finished and smooth hard floors without cutting into the finish.

How do I know if my SN218M brush needs replacing?

Replace the Powr-Flite SN218M soft nylon brush when the bristles are matted, curled, or worn short, or when the brush glazes and slides instead of scrubbing. Soft nylon bristles fatigue over time and stop carrying water and solution evenly, which shows up as streaking or dull cleaning results.

The SN218M 18-inch soft nylon scrub brush fits Powr-Flite 20-inch 1.5 HP rotary floor machines — the Classic Metal C201HD and the Millennium NM201HD. It replaces the older SS118 brush and uses the standard Powr-Flite clutch-plate mount.
