Helping you choose the right floor grinder for your job

Whether you’re grinding concrete, removing coatings, or polishing floors to a high sheen, choosing the right grinder makes all the difference. At Multi-Hire, we stock a full range of new Husqvarna floor grinders for sale, from compact 110v machines to high-performance 415v planetary systems.

This guide walks you through the models we offer, how to match the right vacuum, and what tooling you’ll need to get the job done.

Why We Chose to Sell Husqvarna

When it comes to concrete grinding, polishing and floor preparation, the brand behind your equipment matters just as much as the equipment itself. In an industry where reliability, consistency and performance make or break a job, we chose Husqvarna for one simple reason:

Their machines deliver results our customers can trust — every single day, on every single site.

Husqvarna has earned its reputation as the global leader in surface preparation equipment, not through marketing, but through engineering. Their grinders, dust extractors and tooling are built around real-world challenges: uneven slabs, tough coatings, long commercial runs, UK site restrictions, and the need for machines that simply don’t quit.

For us, that made the decision easy.

We want to supply equipment that helps contractors work faster, grind flatter and finish stronger — and Husqvarna consistently delivers on all three.

From compact 110v machines to high-output 415v planetary grinders, every model in the range is designed with durability, ease of use and exceptional finish quality in mind. Add in unmatched tooling compatibility, excellent dust management and a global parts network, and it’s clear why Husqvarna stands out in a crowded market.

We don’t just sell Husqvarna.
We recommend it because we use it, we test it, and we trust it.

Why 415v Three-Phase Grinders Are Better

When comparing 110v, 240v and 415v grinders, the difference is simple:

🔸 110v – Best for safety and small-medium work

• Lower power
• Slower removal
• Ideal for domestic and small commercial sites
• Needed for UK construction site compliance

🔸 240v – Stronger single-phase option

• More torque than 110v
• Good for medium spaces
• Perfect step up before going three-phase

🔸 415v – The professional choice

415v outperforms 110v/240v in every way:

• More torque → cuts faster, removes more, polishes better
• Stable RPM → consistent scratch pattern & flatter floors
• Lower current draw → cooler running, less strain on components
• Higher productivity → bigger areas finished in less time
• Designed for full-scale commercial work

If you want to deliver professional polished concrete, 415v is the gold standard.

Matching the Correct Vacuum Extractor

Every grinder must be paired with the right dust extractor.

Grinder – Voltage – Recommended Vacuum

Grinder Model	Voltage	Type	Recommended Vacuum
BGS250 (110v)	110v	Single-head	DE110
PG280	110v	Single-head	DE110
PG450	110v	Planetary	DE120
BG250 (415v)	415v	Single-head	D60
PG510	415v	Planetary	DE120
PG540	415v	Planetary	D60
PG5 / PG5S	240v (PG5S) / 415v (PG5)	Planetary	DE130
PG6 / PG6XR / PG6DR	415v	Heavy-duty planetary	D60
PG8 / PG8XR / PG8DR	415v	Industrial planetary	D80

Using the correct extractor keeps you H-class silica compliant, protects your tools, and gives a cleaner scratch pattern.

FAQ’s For Floor Grinder Machines

1. What’s the difference between a PG6 and a PG8 grinder?

The PG6 range is a mid-size commercial grinder, perfect for large areas and full polishing systems.
The PG8 range is industrial scale — wider cut path, heavier weight, and higher productivity, ideal for warehouses and big retail/industrial floors.

If you regularly do jobs over 500–1000m², the PG8 series offers better output and long-term value.

2. Should I choose an S, XR or DR model?

Here’s a simple breakdown:

• S (PG6S / PG8S): Push-along entry model, 3-head, cost-effective.
• XR (PG6XR / PG8XR): Remote-control, 4-head system, excellent for flat floors and high productivity.
• DR (PG6DR / PG8DR): Upgraded motors, 3-head, delivers the best polishing finish of each series.

If you want maximum performance in polishing and productivity, XR is the sweet spot.

3. Why do concrete grinders use different head numbers?

• 3-head grinders: Smooth cut, great torque, excellent for polishing.
• 4-head grinders: Flatter floors, faster material removal, more balanced scratch pattern.

For the flattest floors, choose the XR (4-head).
For the best finish polish, choose DR (3-head with high motor torque).

4. Do I need a 415v grinder, or is 110v/240v enough?

• 110v: Best for small jobs, domestic sites and UK site rules.
• 240v: Stronger than 110v, ideal step up for medium commercial floors.
• 415v: Recommended for heavy removal, large commercial areas, and full polished concrete.

415v gives you:
✔ More torque
✔ More consistent RPM
✔ Higher productivity
✔ Better finish quality
✔ Lower current draw (more efficient)
✔ Less motor/electrical strain

If you’re buying your first grinder for serious commercial work, 415v is the best investment.

5. What vacuum do I pair with each grinder?

Grinder Model	Recommended Vacuum
BGS250 (110v)	DE110
PG280	DE110
PG450	DE120
BG250 (415v)	D60
PG510	DE120
PG540	D60
PG5 / PG5S	DE130
PG6 / PG6XR / PG6DR	D60
PG8 / PG8XR / PG8DR	D80

A mismatched extractor will choke the grinder and fill your job with dust.

6. What tooling do I need for grinding?

Most jobs follow a structure:

Metal Bonds (removal & levelling):

• 25 grit → heavy removal
• 50 grit → profiling
• 100 grit → pre-polish

Bond Choice:

• Soft bond → hard concrete
• Medium bond → normal slabs
• Hard bond → soft concrete

Resins:
100 / 200 / 400 / 800 / 1500 for full polish
Fenix / EZ / Boride systems available

Extras:

• GM3000 or SRG grout
• Densifier (Hard, Hard Blend, UltraSlab)
• Sealer (PremGuard, Protector WB, UltraSeal)

7. Can I polish concrete with the PG5, PG6 or PG8 series?

Yes — they are ideal for full polished concrete systems.
For the best finish choose PG6DR or PG8DR.
For the flattest floors, choose PG6XR or PG8XR.

8. Are these grinders good for removing coatings?

Yes — especially the PG6 and PG8 ranges.
For tough coatings (epoxy, screed, membranes), combine:

• Low-grit metals (25g / 30g)
• Soft bond tools on hard concrete
• High torque (DR) or 4-head XR for aggressive removal

9. How do you choose between PG450, PG5, PG6, and PG8?

• PG450 → small/medium jobs, residential work, overlays
• PG5 / PG5S → medium/large commercial, step up in output
• PG6 → large commercial, full polishing
• PG8 → industrial-scale production & warehouses
