Tennant T260 Walk Behind Floor Scrubber
The Tennant T260 is The Sweet Spot Between Compact, Capable and Cost
When the T2 isn't quite wide enough and you need a little more floor coverage per pass, but you still need a compact, easy-to-use machine that fits into small and congested spaces, the Tennant T260 is the right choice.
This battery-powered compact walk-behind floor scrubber delivers a 500mm cleaning path, 40L solution tank, 45L recovery tank, and 45 lbs of down pressure — scrubbing and drying hard floors in a single quiet pass at 68 dB(A) without the bulk or complexity of a self-propelled machine.
Key Features & Benefits of the Tennant T260
-
500mm cleaning path covers more floor per pass than the T2 — still compact enough for tight spaces — a wider cleaning path than the T2's 430mm without the bulk of a self-propelled machine, making the T260 the right choice when the cleaning area is slightly larger or wider corridors and open spaces need to be covered more efficiently without sacrificing manoeuvrability in congested areas.
-
Parabolic squeegee with Linatex® blades for excellent water pickup — the parabolic squeegee design and standard Linatex® blades work together with a floating splash guard to maximise water recovery and keep floors dry and safe after each pass, reducing slip hazards and the need for secondary drying.
-
Pad Assist reduces operator fatigue with simple push-button controls — Pad Assist helps propel the machine forward, reducing the physical effort required across extended cleaning sessions, while the intuitive push-button Start-Stop control and battery meter display make the T260 easy for any operator to pick up and use correctly without training.
-
Yellow touch points and easy-access tanks simplify maintenance — yellow maintenance touch points highlight common daily maintenance areas to reduce breakdowns and simplify preventative care, while the easy-access tanks with full visibility make cleaning out the solution and recovery tanks fast and thorough.
-
Multiple solution flow rates for superior results across different applications — variable solution flow rates allow the operator to adjust water delivery to suit the floor surface and soil level, delivering the right amount of solution for light maintenance cleaning through to more intensive scrubbing without wasting water or leaving excess moisture on the floor.
Why Choose the Tennant T260 Over Other Tennant Floor Scrubbers
The Tennant T260 sits between the T2 and the self-propelled models in the Tennant walk-behind range — wider than the T2 for better productivity, simpler and more compact than the self-propelled T291, T390, and above. It's the right choice in three specific situations.
-
The T2's 430mm path is just too narrow for the job — if the cleaning area includes slightly wider corridors, open floor spaces, or rooms where the T2's path means too many passes to cover the floor efficiently, the T260's 500mm path covers the same area faster without requiring a step up to a larger, more complex self-propelled machine like the T291 or T300.
-
Self-propelled isn't needed but more tank capacity is — the T260's 40L solution and 45L recovery tanks hold more than the T2's 26L/36L setup, meaning fewer stops to refill and empty across a cleaning session. For facilities where the T2 runs out of solution too quickly but a self-propelled machine like the T291 or T390 is more machine than the job warrants, the T260 sits in the right middle ground.
-
Simplicity and reliability matter more than advanced features — the T260 delivers Tennant quality and consistent scrubbing performance with straightforward push-button operation, without the additional settings, ECO modes, LCD displays, and propel controls that come with the T291, T390, T391, T300, and above. For facilities that want a machine that just works, every time, without complexity, the T260 is the right answer.
