Blastrac Self-Propelled
8-inch Shot-Blasting System

Blastrac debuts shot-blaster, ride-on scraper, scarifier line. The new Blastrac 1-8DPS30 is a self-propelled 8-inch shot-blasting system used to prepare concrete surfaces prior to the application of paint, coating or overlays.

The 1-8DPS30 is designed for small or medium-sized jobs up to 8,000 square feet. The shot-blaster works well around immobile equipment and obstructions on industrial floors, and it provides complementary shot-blasting in tight areas on larger jobs. It strips, cleans and profiles in one easy step, providing a cost-effective, time-saving and environmentally friendly method for preparing concrete surfaces. The 4-horsepower drive motor for self-propelled forward and reverse operation improves productivity and promotes a more consistent surface profile, preparing up to 430 square feet an hour. The 1-8DPS30 features a slide-out screen in the shot hopper for easy debris removal, and it consumes less than 9 pounds of abrasive per hour.

Blastrac’s BMS-220BX ride-on scraper now features extended battery life. Other scrapers on the market have a run time of 30 minutes to an hour, while the BMS-220BX will last two to three hours on one charge. The compact unit fits easily through doorways and into tight areas and is light enough for standard elevators.

Finally, Blastrac now offers a high-endurance, performance-tested line of 7-inch, 8-inch, 10-inch and 12-inch scarifiers that are economically priced within the concrete flooring industry. A variety of cutter teeth and quick-changing drums allow for easy reconfiguration to meet specific job requirements, from light cleaning and grooving to heavy coatings removal. The scarifiers easily clean and remove oil or other contaminates from concrete, smooth uneven surfaces and trip hazards, and cut safety grooves in ramps and concrete walkways. For greater control and easier handling, all Blastrac scarifiers include a quick lift-off feature and micro depth control for fine-tuning the cutter depth. The 8-inch, 10-inch and 12-inch scarifiers are available in gas or electric, while the 7-inch is electric only.
