For decades, the 71 and 72 Carpet Pullers from National Flooring Equipment have been reliable workhorses in our lineup. Simple, compact, and built to last, these machines are a must-have for anyone regularly removing carpet in commercial spaces.
Why Use a Carpet Puller?
When carpet isn’t well-adhered to the subfloor, a scraper can actually slow you down. Instead of cutting cleanly underneath, the material bunches up, gets tangled in the wheels, and creates a mess that’s tough to remove. That’s where a carpet puller shines.
These machines are ideal for lightly adhered or loose commercial carpet. They pull the material back in long, clean passes, with no bunching or jams. Plus, with a 1 to 1.5 HP motor doing the heavy lifting, your crew can avoid the strain of dragging thick carpet manually.
A Better Workflow
With a carpet puller handling the tough part, your team can stay productive. Assign a few workers behind the material removal with hand scrapers to tackle adhesive and residue, and you’ve got a full removal and prep process that’s fast and efficient.
Whether you’re refinishing floors, replacing carpet, or prepping for polish, the 71 and 72 carpet pullers are a solid investment in speed, safety, and crew comfort.
