Popular National Equipment Products

Koffler Sales carries two core National Equipment products covering the most common commercial floor removal needs.

  • Electric Floor Scraper, 6280HD Gladiator – A hydraulic, walk-behind floor scraper built for removing hard and soft flooring in tight spaces. The 6280HD handles ceramic tile, hardwood, sheet vinyl, linoleum, thin-set, and more. Its narrow footprint and positionable handles are designed specifically for work under racking, around fixed equipment, and in areas where a larger machine cannot operate.

  • Carpet Puller by National Equipment NCE71 – A powered, one-person carpet removal machine built for pulling glued-down carpet from any floor surface quickly and cleanly. The NCE71 locks into direct-glued carpet and removes it from the substrate without requiring multiple workers or manual scraping.

If you are also looking for carpet installation tools for the next phase of your project, Koffler carries a full range of installation supplies alongside the removal equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions About National Equipment Products

What types of flooring can the 6280HD Gladiator remove?

The 6280HD is built for hard and soft flooring including ceramic tile, porcelain tile, hardwood, sheet vinyl, linoleum, rubber tile, VCT, thin-set mortar, and epoxy coatings. Its self-propelled, hydraulic design gives it the force needed to get under the most stubborn materials without requiring excessive operator effort.

Is the carpet puller suitable for all carpet types?

The NCE71 is designed specifically for direct glued-down commercial carpet. It is not intended for stretch-in carpet installed over padding, which can typically be pulled by hand. For glue-down installations in offices, retail spaces, and commercial properties, the NCE71 substantially reduces removal time and physical strain compared to manual methods.

Can one person operate these machines?

Yes. Both the 6280HD and the NCE71 are designed for single-operator use, which is one of their key advantages on commercial job sites where minimizing crew size reduces costs and scheduling complexity.

What should I do with the flooring once it is removed?

Both machines remove the flooring material but leave adhesive residue behind on the substrate. Depending on your next flooring installation, you may need additional surface preparation products to address residual adhesive, level the subfloor, or prepare for new installation. Koffler carries floor patching and self-leveling compounds and tile and flooring adhesives for the next steps. If you have questions about what your project needs, contact our team and we can help.
