Powr-Flite C131-7 Classic Metal 13" Floor Machine: 175 RPM, 1 HP for Tight Spaces
The C131-7 is Powr-Flite's most compact Classic line floor machine — a 13" pad, 1 HP, 175 RPM machine in all-chrome metal housing at 95 lbs, assembled in Texas. The 13" pad navigates bathrooms, service corridors, and small office areas that 17" and 20" machines cannot reach.

Compact Commercial Floor Care in Restrooms, Corridors, and Small Areas
The C131-7's 13" pad is the correct specification for restroom tile scrubbing, narrow service corridor buffing, and small-room floor care in buildings where 17" or 20" machines are simply too large to turn. At 175 RPM the 1 HP motor provides the torque to scrub, strip, and polish with the appropriate pad — the smaller motor is appropriately sized for the reduced pad area; a 1.5 HP motor on a 13" pad would be over-specified and add unnecessary weight to a compact machine. All-chrome metal housing resists cleaning chemical corrosion that is frequent in restroom cleaning environments where the machine contacts acid bowl cleaners, quaternary disinfectants, and floor stripper. Four-inch non-marking wheels give the C131-7 a tighter turning radius than the 5" wheels on larger machines, allowing complete passes in confined spaces.
C131-7 vs. NM171HD — Compact Metal vs. 17" Millennium
The C131-7 at 13" and the NM171HD at 17" serve different size constraints. The C131-7 is for spaces that a 17" machine cannot navigate — restrooms, small service corridors, tight offices. The NM171HD offers 70% more pad coverage per pass with 1.5 HP vs. 1 HP, making it the productive choice for all spaces the 13" can reach plus larger open areas. The C131-7 is also 14 lbs lighter than the NM171HD (95 vs. 109 lbs), an advantage in multi-story buildings where a machine must be carried up stairs.
