Random Orbital Sander with Turbo Gear Drive - 150mm, 5.0mm Orbit with 100 Net Abrasive Discs and Storage Case

Two sanders in one - the Rutlands® 150mm random orbital sander combines an aggressive, high removal rate turbo gear-driven coarse sander, with a super-fine finishing low vibration random orbital sander. Switch from stall-free heavy stock removal to ultra-fine finishing at the flick of a switch.

‘Free rotation’ mode runs in a standard 5.0mm random orbit, oscillating only through rotational momentum. This ensures the highest quality surface finish, free from swirl marks or scratches, whilst reducing the risk of applying too much pressure during lighter sanding tasks. Switch to ‘turbo gear drive’, and the random orbit is forcibly driven by gears, allowing you to apply heavy pressure with zero stalling. This provides exceptionally high sanding power and a 50% quicker material removal rate, stripping old paint and finishes, or flattening rough surfaces, with unrelenting speed.

Driving the sander is an 800W high torque motor, running at a variable speed range of between 3,300 - 7,400 RPM. An electronic speed controller maintains the selected speed under load, for consistent results no matter the application. The side mounted slide switch prevents accidental start-up and can be locked in the on position for continuous operation.

The supplied 150mm hook and loop backing pad has been designed to maximise air flow, ensuring efficient through-body dust extraction via the rear 25mm dust port. An auxiliary handle screws into the left or right hand side of the sander and provides maximum control during coarse sanding, or when working vertically or overhead. The clip-on edge protector protects both the edge of the backing pad, and adjacent surfaces, from damage when sanding right up against corners or edges. Supplied with the sander is a 150mm backing pad, auxiliary side handle and backing pad removal key.

The net abrasive discs have been developed to maximise dust extraction, providing dust-free sanding when used with a connected dust extractor. Where safety and efficiency are paramount, these net abrasives will reduce exposure to the most dangerous, harmful sanding dust or toxic paint residues. The discs are suitable for use on a range of materials from hardwoods, softwoods and exotic woods to primers, paints and lacquers, composites and non-ferrous metals. Supplied as a mixed pack of 100 x 150mm discs containing 80, 120, 180, 240 and 320 grits. ©
