Kentucky Mop Fitting – Plastic Mop Clip
The Kentucky Mop Fitting provides the connection between a traditional Kentucky mop head and its handle. Made from plastic, the holder secures the head through its centre band, leaving the yarn free to spread across the floor as the mop moves. It is a useful replacement component for commercial cleaning teams maintaining existing equipment.
Robert Scott reference 100988 identifies this lightweight holder. The clip measures 18 × 14cm and weighs 72g, making it convenient to store in a cleaning cupboard or alongside a trolley's spare mop heads. Its compact construction adds little weight to the assembled mop.
Secure Support for Kentucky Mop Heads
The clip holds the band at the centre of the mop, giving the head a defined attachment point. A screw collar connects the holder to the handle, creating the assembly used for routine wet mopping. The fastening can be opened when the head needs changing, so the holder remains a reusable part of the cleaning system.
Use the fitting with a traditional Kentucky mop head. This arrangement gives cleaning teams access to replaceable yarn heads while retaining the same handle and holder between changes.
A Practical Spare for Commercial Cleaning
A separate mop clip makes it possible to maintain the individual components of a mopping system. When the holder needs replacing, a serviceable head and handle can remain in use. Keeping a replacement fitting available also helps avoid interruptions when equipment is being prepared for a cleaning round.
For wider floor-care equipment requirements, our 20L wheeled mop bucket and wringer provides a separate option for microfibre damp mopping. The clip itself is intended for traditional Kentucky heads, giving each cleaning system its own purpose within a commercial equipment range.
