Factory Cat Model 34 Sweeper

The Machine That Built the Legend.

The Factory Cat Model 34 is quite literally the machine that started it all. Famous for its “bulletproof” reputation, this industrial walk-behind sweeper has survived for decades in the world’s most punishing environments—from steel mills and brick plants to sawmills and mines.

While other sweepers rely on fragile plastic components, the Model 34 is built with a heavy-gauge steel chassis and a simplistic design that favors durability over complexity. If you need a machine that can sweep up everything from fine cement dust to heavy metal shavings and bolts without blowing dust back into the air, the Model 34 is your solution.

Key Features

  • Industrial Steel Construction: Built with a 1/8″ thick powder-coated steel frame and hood. It’s designed to be bumped, bruised, and kept in service for 20+ years.
  • Baghouse Filtration System: Our unique polymer felt filter is rated at 1 micron. It can swallow entire bags of cement without leaving a trace of dust, and the built-in manual shaker ensures the filter lasts the life of the machine.
  • Direct-Throw Sweeping: The 26-inch main broom uses a “direct-throw” method to pack the steel hopper full, ensuring you spend more time sweeping and less time emptying.
  • Battery-Powered Simplicity: Forget about oil changes, spark plugs, or propane tanks. The high-capacity battery system provides a silent, fume-free clean for up to 5 hours on a single charge.
  • Self-Adjusting Broom: The main broom automatically adjusts for wear, maintaining consistent downward pressure throughout the life of the bristles.
  • Side Broom for Edge Cleaning: A standard 17-inch side broom reaches into corners and under pallet racks, pulling debris into the path of the main broom.

Why Choose the Model 34?

“Built to Sweep, Built to Last.” The Model 34 is the gold standard for compact industrial sweepers. It is simple enough for anyone to operate but tough enough to handle the debris that destroys “commercial” machines. Whether it’s wood chips in a furniture plant or metal turnings in a welding shop, the 34 picks it up and traps the dust.

Ideal Applications:

  • Fabrication & Welding Shops: Picks up metal shavings and sparks.
  • Saw Mills & Woodworking: Handles thick sawdust and wood scraps.
  • Brick & Cement Plants: Captures fine particulates and heavy dust.
  • Agricultural Barns: Effectively sweeps dirt, hay, and debris.
  • Warehouses: Cleans narrow aisles and under pallet racks.

Simple. Reliable. Unstoppable.
