The Edco C10309A ALR-2A is a 2-foot air-powered chisel scaler that takes the back-breaking work out of stripping floors and surfaces. Pounding out about 2,500 hits per minute, it peels up tile, adhesive, roofing, coatings, and stubborn build-up that would take hours to remove by hand, so flooring contractors, demolition crews, and restoration teams can clear and prep a substrate fast.
It is made for the trades that live on surface prep: floor-covering installers, concrete and restoration contractors, roofers, and facility maintenance crews who need to strip a surface clean before the next layer goes down.
What it removes
- Ceramic and quarry tile plus the thin-set adhesive underneath.
- Carpet, vinyl, linoleum, and rubber flooring with their glues.
- Roofing materials, fireproofing, waterproofing, and insulation.
- Mastics, paint build-up, coatings, and ice from concrete.
Why pros reach for the ALR-2A
An air chisel scaler turns a slow, knee-destroying scraping job into a standing, high-speed pass. The lightweight aluminum body cuts operator fatigue, the high-strength tubular handle and soft foam grips keep it comfortable through a full day, and the quick-change hardened steel chuck lets a crew swap chisels in seconds to match the material. Backed by shop air, it keeps working as long as the compressor does.
