Internal Diagram
Our line of 3M™ Elite Central-Vacuum-Ready Random Orbital Sanders are best-in-class tools designed to optimize the performance of 3M™ abrasives. Built with a powerful, precision-balanced air-driven motors and durable lightweight aluminum housing, these ergonomically designed workhorses stand up to industrial production and reduce user fatigue for hours of comfortable operation. Elite central-vacuum-ready sanders can be connected to a central vacuum system or used with an external portable vacuum such as a shop vacuum. It has a threaded attachment feature that enables easy yet secure attachment and detachment of a 1" external threaded vacuum hose (sold separately) to effectively eliminate dust from the workpiece and surrounding space.

  • Recessed lever platform eliminates pinch and pressure points on the operator's palm
  • Three grip sizes enable operator preference. The grip diameter on the tool is 2-3/4" with two additional grip sizes available (diameters of 2-1/2" and 3" sold separately)
Reduced vibration
  • The rubber grip absorbs and reduces vibration and features 3M™ Gripping Material for a stronger grip and more control with less effort
  • Durable composite cover extends to the base to absorb vibration and keeps tools in service by preventing cracked housings
Enhanced safety features
  • Internal muffler protects operator hearing and will not break off
  • Convenient thumb-controlled speed dial reduces inadvertent speed changes
Why Choose a Random Orbital Sander?
3M™ random orbital sanders optimize sanding and surface preparation on wood, metal, fiberglass and composite materials, and many other substrates. Also known as dual action (D/A) palm sanders, these industrial-grade tools rotate the abrasive disc and disc pad in two simultaneous overlapping oval patterns so no single abrasive particle follows the same path twice, producing a random scratch and swirl-free finish ready for paint or varnish.
