General Equipment Surface Grinder
for Surface Prep

General Equipment Co.'s SG12/E single-head surface grinder is designed for smaller-scale surface preparation projects.

Powered by a totally enclosed, fan-cooled, 1.5-horsepower electric motor, the SG12 features a single rotating disc with a 12-inch wide working width. Offering a top disc rotation speed of 250 rpm, applications for the SG12 include grinding concrete surfaces, removing mastics, adhesives, epoxies and urethanes, breaking up deposits of grease and dirt, removing rubber carpet backing and industrial residues, and polishing delicate terrazzo and marble floor surfaces.

Built for portability, the SG12 includes a fully adjustable folding handle and a compact frame design with wheel positioning that allows for simple maneuvering up and down stairwells. A removable safety and dust shield surrounding the rotating disc helps contain airborne dust and limits material contamination, while also protecting the machine's internal components from damage.

For maximum safety, the SG12 includes the exclusive Quik-Stop deadman motor switch that immediately stops the grinder's motor in the event the operator loses control of the machine. A 37-foot extension cord is standard, complete with a GFI for added safety.

The SG12 accommodates the same wide variety of attachments currently available with General Equipment's larger, dual-head SG24 series of surface grinders.
