OverviewHoffman & Lamson floor rods and tools for commercial and industrial vacuuming applications. Options include commercial-duty rods and tools for general cleanup and lighter-duty floor vacuuming on carpeted or hard surfaces, and industrial heavy-duty rods and tools for severe industrial conditions. Commercial assemblies must be used with matching commercial-duty components; industrial assemblies require hoses with nipples and are compatible only with industrial components.
Commercial-duty floor rods and toolsDesigned for commercial cleaning tasks where reduced rod weight improves operator handling. Intended for general cleanup and routine vacuuming on carpets and hard floors. Commercial-duty rods are compatible only with commercial-duty floor tools. Utility tools are available for vacuuming around machinery, bins and work tables; recommended for car wash environments.
Industrial heavy-duty floor rods and toolsBuilt for use in severe industrial environments. Industrial-duty rods connect to hoses using nipples and are compatible only with industrial floor tools. Recommended where higher abrasion, particulate load or continuous operation are expected.
