Wiping the floor dry behind a scrubber, this red gum squeegee blade pulls the water and solution film into the vacuum path so the machine leaves a dry, streak-free surface. Made from a resilient red gum rubber compound that resists general-purpose detergents, it is a consumable cut to the length and slot pattern of the squeegee assembly it mounts in.
A squeegee blade wipes the floor dry behind a scrubber, pulling the water and solution film into the vacuum path so the machine leaves a dry, streak-free surface rather than a wet one. This red gum squeegee is the wearing blade that rides in contact with the floor, made from a red gum rubber compound chosen for its resilience and its resistance to the general-purpose detergents used in floor cleaning.
The blade is a consumable: its working edge rounds off and nicks with use, and once the edge no longer wipes cleanly the machine starts leaving streaks and standing water behind it. Flipping the blade to a fresh edge buys some life, but a worn blade is replaced to bring the machine back to a clean, dry wipe. Squeegee blades are cut to the length and slot pattern of the squeegee assembly they mount in, so the blade coming off is the pattern for the replacement; match the length and mounting holes so it seats flat and holds an even edge across the floor.
