Random Orbit Sanders

What is a Random Orbit Sander?

A random orbit sander is a very useful tool for sanding many different materials professionally. These machines get their name from the type of movement they make, this is because the movement starts from the centre but is spread over the whole surface. The sanding surface rotates in a rapid circular motion. This feature allows you to sand an entire surface from any angle, and sand in a very targeted and convenient way.

Why choose a Random Orbit Sander?

Why would you choose a random orbit sander over a standard sander? There are a number of reasons for this. Because the movements of a random orbit sander are different, this type of sander provides more precise and nicer results. This makes it very suitable for fine sanding work, like polishing a statue or sanding the hull of a boat. In addition, random orbit sanders are known for their good dust extraction performance, which is important when you want to work in a cleaner and, more importantly, healthier way.
