A powerful motor and precision-balanced steel workings provide optimal performance with less vibration in high-production industrial environments.
It has been ergonomically designed with features such as extended curved wrist support and 3M Gripping Material to provide the best possible operator comfort during prolonged use.
Pneumatic power can be used continuously for many hours at a time, far outlasting the life of a standard electric sander (power hose and air compressor sold separately.
Three-dimensional (3M) Disc Pad (included) absorbs shock and vibration, resulting in smoother running. It provides excellent disc adhesion while still allowing for quick and easy removal.
Wrist rest has been redesigned to provide more support.
Pinch points are eliminated by using a recessed level.

Description of the Produc.
A powerful precision-balanced motor, durable, lightweight construction, and operator ergonomics are all built into the 3M Elite Non-Vacuum Random Orbital Sanders, which deliver professional performance and a swirl-free finish in high-production industrial environments where dust extraction is not required.
The Manufacturer’s Statemen.
The 3M Elite Non-Vacuum Random Orbital Sanders, which are loaded with features to reduce vibration and noise while also providing greater wrist support and operator comfort, were designed by 3M engineers to provide both performance and ergonomics in one package. The ergonomic rubber grip with 3M Gripping Material, curved-throttle alloy steel lever, and built-in wrist support allow for comfortable control, while the recessed lever platform eliminates pinch and pressure points on the operator’s palm while operating the machine. The speed control dial is conveniently located on the side of the vehicle and is operated with the thumb. With a composite cover that extends all the way to the base, the lighter-weight tool is able to absorb and reduce vibration while also preventing cracked housings, and the internal muffler helps to reduce noise and will not break off.
Designed for wood, metal prep for paint, fiberglass and composite materials, and a variety of other substrates, 3M Elite Non-Vacuum Random Orbital Sanders provide the best sanding and surface preparation results. These industrial-grade tools, also known as dual action (D/A) sanders, rotate the abrasive disc and disc pad in two simultaneous overlapping oval patterns so that no single abrasive particle follows the same path twice. This results in a swirl-free finish, even when sanding against the grain of the material being worked.
Pneumatic sanders, also known as air sanders, are powered by compressed air, which is supplied by an air compressor. This type of model is not connected to a vacuum system, and it is used in applications where dust extraction is not a consideration.
My only complaint is that it does not come with a hook and loop fastening system.
