commercial floor fan 18in is a Northern Safety floor fan designed to move air where work demands it. The adjustable tilt head directs airflow precisely, so you can target machines, benches, or work zones without shifting the fan base. A 3-speed, 1/5 HP motor gives you flexible airflow, so you can run higher speed for quick cooling or drop to a lower speed when you want air movement without excessive disturbance. The open ventilated, permanently lubricated, sleeve bearing motor is built to run with reduced maintenance, which supports longer operating periods during busy shop days. Rubber floor guards protect floor surfaces from marks while the fan is repositioned, which is helpful on finished concrete or coated shop floors. A 7 foot power cord with SJT-type 3-conductor plug gives placement range from outlets, while UL listing and compliance with OSHA standards support use in safety-conscious commercial environments.
This Northern Safety floor fan uses an adjustable tilt head, so once the fan is set on the floor, you change airflow direction by tilting the head instead of dragging the base. The 3-speed, 1/5 HP motor pairs with this tilt function to fine-tune airflow, letting you use higher speed and a steeper angle to clear warm air or fumes from a specific zone. The 7 foot power cord with SJT-type 3-conductor plug provides working reach from standard outlets, which helps when positioning the fan around benches, saws, or assembly areas. The rubber floor guards at the base protect the surface as you reposition the fan, which is especially useful on smooth shop floors where scuffs show. The open ventilated, permanently lubricated, sleeve bearing motor design supports continuous use without frequent lubrication work.
This Northern Safety commercial floor fan, identified as manufacturer part 989 with an 18 inch class floor fan description, is suited to shop and safety supply environments where directed airflow is needed. The adjustable tilt head makes it practical for focusing air on workstations, assembly lines, or specific machines by changing only the fan angle. With its 3-speed, 1/5 HP motor, the fan can serve both smaller areas needing gentle circulation and larger open zones needing stronger movement. Rubber floor guards match well with shops that have coated or polished floors, because they help prevent marking when the fan position changes throughout the day. The 7 foot SJT-type 3-conductor cord supports use in shops that rely on standard wall outlets rather than dedicated hard-wired fans. UL listing positions this fan for use in facilities that rely on recognized electrical safety testing. Compliance with OSHA standards supports deployment in workplaces that align equipment with safety regulations.
The open ventilated, permanently lubricated, sleeve bearing motor allows air to circulate around the motor body while maintaining lubrication, which supports consistent operation over extended run times common in commercial use. Because the motor is rated at 1/5 HP with three speeds, it balances airflow output with electrical load, which matters when multiple shop tools and cooling devices share the same circuits. The adjustable tilt head reduces repeated lifting or moving of the fan base to redirect air, which can streamline daily adjustments as jobs shift across a shop floor. Rubber floor guards do more than protect the surface; they help stabilize the fan on smooth floors, which supports steady operation when the fan is running at higher speeds. The UL listed status provides an electrical safety reference for facility managers, while OSHA compliant design aligns the fan with occupational safety expectations, which matters in inspections and internal safety programs. The 7 foot power cord with SJT-type 3-conductor plug offers a grounded connection, supporting proper electrical practice in industrial and woodworking spaces.
This commercial floor fan 18in uses an adjustable tilt head and 3-speed, 1/5 HP motor, making it suited to shops and work areas that need directed airflow at benches, machines, or open floor zones.
The adjustable tilt head lets you aim airflow without moving the base, so you can redirect air toward different workstations quickly as tasks change through the day.
The open ventilated, permanently lubricated, sleeve bearing motor promotes cooling and maintains lubrication, supporting long operating periods with reduced lubrication work in busy shops.
Rubber floor guards protect floors from marks when you move the fan and help keep the fan stable on smooth surfaces during higher fan speeds.
The 7 foot SJT-type 3-conductor cord provides grounded power and allows the fan to reach from wall outlets to work areas where airflow is needed.
This floor fan is UL listed and complies with OSHA standards, aligning it with recognized electrical and occupational safety expectations in commercial environments.
The Northern Safety commercial floor fan with adjustable tilt head, 3-speed 1/5 HP motor, and rubber floor guards is designed for shops that need controllable airflow. The 7 foot grounded cord, UL listing, and OSHA compliant design support use in safety-focused commercial spaces. For shops needing directed air movement around tools and work areas, this floor fan aligns motor performance, tilt control, and safety details in one unit.
