The A96 is a self-propelled 8 in shot blaster running on 230 V single-phase power at 30 amps. Variable speed drive, a joystick handle and front and rear LED lighting give the operator one-handed control and a clear view of blast overlap, at production up to 860 sq ft per hour.

Shipping & Freight

For an order containing products from a single brand, shipping is a flat rate based on your order total:

  • Orders up to $5,000: $279
  • Orders $5,000 to $10,000: $347
  • Orders $10,000 and over: $517

These rates cover standard freight delivery to a commercial address. After you place your order, our team will confirm your delivery timeline within 1 to 3 business days.

Ordering from more than one brand? Multi-brand orders ship on separate freight and are quoted individually rather than at the flat rate above. Place your order or contact us first and we will confirm total freight before anything is finalized.

Liftgate service is not included in these rates. If your delivery location has no loading dock or forklift to unload the freight from the truck, liftgate service is required and will be added to your shipping charge. If you are unsure whether you need it, contact us before ordering.

Commercial delivery locations are preferred when available. Residential delivery, limited-access locations, and appointment scheduling may affect handling.

Lead times vary by product, manufacturer availability, and selected options. Some configured, special-order, or non-stock items require additional processing time before they ship.

Please inspect all freight shipments at delivery before signing. If you see visible damage, note it with the carrier and contact us as soon as possible.

If you need freight, delivery, or lead-time guidance before ordering, contact our team before you purchase.

Compatibility / Fitment

Compatibility varies by product type, machine setup, selected options, and intended application.

For machine-mounted equipment and attachments, buyers should confirm fitment before ordering using the relevant machine information, including model, attachment style, mount type, coupler type, hydraulic requirements, and any other product-specific requirements listed on the page.

Hardscape Heavy can assist with pre-order fitment guidance based on the information you provide. This guidance is limited to purchase and compatibility review before ordering and does not include field installation, hydraulic modification, fabrication, or on-site setup support.

If you are unsure whether a product will work with your machine or application, contact us before placing the order.

Returns & Warranty

Warranty coverage is provided by the product manufacturer where applicable. Warranty terms, coverage periods, exclusions, and claim procedures vary by brand and product type.

Hardscape Heavy does not create separate warranty coverage beyond the manufacturer’s warranty unless explicitly stated on the product page.

Returns are governed by our store return policy. Because many products in this category involve freight shipping, special ordering, or configuration-specific selections, return eligibility may vary by product and condition. Special-order, custom-configured, used, damaged, or installed items may not be eligible for return.

Please review our full return policy before purchase. If you have questions about return eligibility or manufacturer warranty coverage for a specific item, contact us before ordering.

The A96 blasts an 8 inch path at up to 860 square feet per hour, self-propelled and variable speed, on 230 volt single-phase power. It is the machine for open floors in homes and small commercial buildings where single-phase 230 V is already at the panel and a three-phase drop is not.

Control is where this machine differs from a conventional blaster. A joystick handle replaces the fixed bar, and a two-button arrangement on that handle lets the operator run the machine one-handed. That matters at the end of a row: lining up the next pass one-handed is faster than resetting a two-handed grip every time. Two LED lights throw light ahead of and behind the machine, so blast overlap and the profile being cut stay visible in a dark basement or an unlit shell.

Dust is handled by pairing the blaster with one of National's matched collectors, either the DL3000 or the DL4000P. At 350 pounds the A96 is a machine that gets rolled rather than carried, and its 8 inch path is the same width as the smaller A95, so the two cover the same profile at different production rates.

Common Applications

  • Profiling open residential and light commercial floors for coatings
  • Surface preparation where 230 V single-phase power is available
  • Production blasting that needs visible overlap control in poorly lit space

Selection Notes

  • Requires 230 V single-phase power on a 30 amp circuit
  • Pairs with the DL3000 or DL4000P 318 CFM dust collector, sold separately
  • Same 8 in blast width as the A95; step to the A97 for a 10 in path
