Stripping a floor down to bare concrete is the part of a remodel that eats labor hours. The General Equipment 102-1500A is the holder that turns a demolition hammer into a powered floor scraper: the scraper blade clamps into the assembly, the assembly seats in a 1-1/8-inch hex x 6-inch chuck, and the hammer does the work that a hand scraper would take a crew all day to finish.
It is bought by flooring contractors, restoration companies and facility maintenance teams who are pulling up carpet glue, vinyl adhesive, mastic or the thinset bed left behind after tile comes off. The holder stays in the truck for years; the blades are the consumable that gets replaced.
Built for
- Shearing carpet glue and vinyl adhesive off a concrete slab
- Removing thinset and mortar buildup after tile demolition
- Stripping mastic and coating residue ahead of a new floor system
- Knocking down material buildups on loading docks, plant floors and warehouse slabs
The single-piece design
The most common failure point on a powered scraper is the joint between the shank and the blade mount. Assemblies welded or pinned together concentrate every hammer blow at that seam, and eventually the shank snaps there. The 102-1500A uses a single-piece design specifically to resist shank breakage, so the impact energy travels through continuous forged alloy steel instead of across a weld.
That construction is why crews running a hammer eight hours a day generally end up standing on the more expensive holder rather than replacing a cheap one every few jobs.

Frequently asked questions
Does a scraper blade come with the holder?
This listing is the blade holder assembly. Scraper blades are sold separately as the consumable item, which is how most crews prefer to buy them since blade width and profile change with the job.
What hammers does it fit?
Any demolition hammer with a 1-1/8-inch hex chuck taking a 6-inch shank. Confirm your chuck style before ordering, as spline and 3/4-inch hex steel will not seat in the same holder.
How is this different from a one-piece chisel scraper?
A fixed chisel scraper wears out as a whole unit. A holder lets you replace only the blade, which is the part that dulls, so the forged shank and mount keep working through many blade changes.
Will it damage the concrete underneath?
Used at a low angle it shears the adhesive layer rather than digging into the slab. Driving it in steeply will gouge concrete, so most operators keep the tool nearly flat and let the hammer do the work.
