Blastrac Shot Blaster  

 

New products
from Blastrac

Blastrac introduces three new products. The Blastrac 1-8DPS30 is a self-propelled, 8-inch shot blasting system, used to prepare concrete surfaces prior to the application of paint, coatings or overlays.

For jobs up to 8,000 square feet, the shot-blast system strips, cleans and profiles in one step. The unit's drive motor for self-propelled forward-and-reverse operation improves productivity and promotes a consistent surface profile. It can prepare up to 430 square feet per hour and can be used in tight spaces including areas around equipment, obstructions or on balconies. The system has a 220V single-phase power option.

Blastrac Shot BlasterBlastrac also introduces a new vacuum, the Blastrac 3-28DC Dust Collector. It features three powerful motors to handle surface preparation jobs and contain concrete dust generated by scarifiers, concrete grinders, small shot blasters and concrete saws used for crack chasing or joint cleanout. The vacuum features a rugged, resin-reinforced, pressure-molded plastic chassis and body that won't rust or dent. The three motors and filter assembly are protected from abusive job site conditions for longer life. Due to a specially designed filter, concrete dust can easily be dislodged from the filter by way of a manual shaker incorporated into the design. Dust pan capacity is 50 pounds and dust disposal is easy — just step on the dust bin release lever. A silencer reduces motor noise to 70 dBA.

Third is the new Blastrac BS-50 stripper. It removes coatings, roofing materials, and a wide range of flooring materials. The lightweight machine features a high-stress, 7/8-inch shaft. The stripper removes coatings, adhesives and mastics, roofing materials, ceramic tile, wood, VCT, carpet and sheet vinyl. The BS-50 is easy to use. The handle detaches for transport, allowing the machine to fit in smaller vehicles. The stripper is lightweight and its rear wheels are adjustable. The BS-50 is suitable for small- to medium-sized jobs. Whisper-quiet operation allows it to be used on virtually any job site, including sensitive environments.
