The ProTeam 8-inch Sidewinder Hard Floor Tool with Horse Hair Brush attaches to compatible ProTeam Sidewinder wands to give janitorial crews, facility managers, and commercial cleaning contractors a gentle yet effective way to pull fine dust and debris off finished hard floors. Natural horse hair bristles glide across hardwood, tile, and other polished surfaces without scratching, making this compact attachment a reliable pick for daily maintenance rounds where protecting the floor finish matters as much as the clean itself.
Use Cases
- Daily dust mopping and vacuuming of hard floors in offices, lobbies, hallways, and reception areas
- Hardwood and other high-gloss finished floor care where scratching or dulling the finish is a concern
- Tile and VCT (vinyl composition tile) floor maintenance in schools, retail stores, and commercial facilities
- Allergen and fine-dust pickup along baseboards, corners, and other hard-to-reach edges
- Quick spot-cleaning passes between deep-cleaning or floor-finish maintenance cycles
Its slim 8-inch profile is sized for tight spaces, including under desks, along baseboards, and around furniture legs, where a full-width floor tool cannot reach. The flexible neck bends up to 90 degrees at the wand connection, so crews can angle the brush head into corners and along edges without crouching or bending. The side-to-side sweeping motion lets operators stay upright while they work, which helps crews move through routine dusting and hard-floor touch-ups faster during scheduled maintenance rounds. Because the brush head is compact and lightweight, it also works well as a secondary tool that crews keep clipped to a cart or tool caddy for quick touch-ups between scheduled dusting rounds, rather than swapping to a larger floor tool for a small spill or dust line.

Frequently asked questions
Which wands or vacuums is this tool compatible with?
This floor tool is designed for friction-fit connection to ProTeam 59-inch Sidewinder wands, #105693 or #105695, which are used with ProTeam backpack and canister vacuum systems.
Is a horse hair brush safe to use on hardwood floors?
Yes. Natural horse hair bristles are softer than nylon or plastic bristles, so they lift dust and light debris from hardwood, tile, and other finished hard-surface floors without scratching the finish.
How do I attach the tool to my vacuum?
Slide the 1.5-inch friction-fit opening of the tool onto a compatible Sidewinder wand, #105693 or #105695, until it is snug. No tools are required for installation or removal.
Can this tool be used on carpet?
No. This attachment is built for hard floors only. For carpeted areas, pair a ProTeam Sidewinder carpet floor tool with the same wand instead.
How often should the bristles be replaced?
Inspect the bristles periodically for wear, fraying, or flattening. Replace the brush once the bristles no longer make even contact with the floor, since worn bristles pick up less dust and debris.
