The Big Blue bullfloat is a popular concrete finishing tool which is avialable in various sizes. Customise your Big Blue to suit your requirements.
This page also displays a range of accessories which are used to give the Big Blue float of your choice access to the concrete. Snap handles (Aluminium connecting poles) are essential to send your float out on the concrete. A Knucklehead Tilt-action Gearbox is also an essential component which bolts onto your float and allows the operative to twist the pole (snap handle) to adjust the pitch angle of the blade, this is essential for pushing out and pulling back the float.
If a brush finish is required to texture the concrete we supply a Float Adapter Bracket used to attach and correctly position a finishing broom at the desired angle. This is a technique that concrete professionals use to ensure an even application of texture while guaranteeing a flat surface.
The basic set-up for a Big Blue finishing float can be seen below. The knucklehead Tilt-action Gearbox is bolted on to the float and the snap handles clip in to the knucklehead. When using the bullfloat on the concrete, please ensure that the float is slightly tilted on the desired angle when pushing out and then reversed on the way back. The float should never be completely flat on the surface.
Setting up your Big Blue to convert it into a texture brush float can be achieved by following the steps below. Please scroll down to the accessores section to view the polybristle brushes which are designed to slightly overhang your thosen float length. For example: if you have a 4ft Big Blue, purchase a 4ft texture brush.
