Orbital-rotary sander Airpress 150 mm pad, 5 mm orbit, model 45407/5

The Airpress orbital-rotary sander model 45407/5 is a pneumatic tool with a 150 mm sanding pad and a 5 mm orbital stroke designed for grinding and sanding tasks. Combining orbital and rotary motion, it provides controlled material removal while reducing visible swirl marks, making it suitable for preparing and finishing wood, metal, and composite surfaces. The tool is intended for both workshop and on-site use where consistent surface quality and manageable dust generation are important.

Advantages

The orbital-rotary mechanism delivers efficient cutting and a fine finish by combining the aggressiveness of rotary sanding with the randomizing action of orbital movement. The 150 mm pad size offers a balance between coverage and maneuverability, while the 5 mm orbit ensures effective abrasion without excessive aggressiveness. Being pneumatically powered, the sander provides continuous torque under load and is suitable for prolonged use in professional environments.

Suitable for

• Sanding and finishing wooden furniture, panels and frames
• Removing paint, varnish and surface contamination on metal and composite parts
• Surface preparation before painting or bonding
• Deburring and light stock removal on automotive and industrial components

Key specifications

• Pad diameter: 150 mm
• Orbital stroke: 5 mm
• Drive type: pneumatic (air-powered)
• Motion: combined orbital and rotary
• Application: grinding and sanding of wood, metal, composites

How to use

Connect the sander to a suitable compressed air supply according to the manufacturer's recommended pressure and airflow. Fit the appropriate 150 mm abrasive disc and ensure it is securely attached. Start the tool with a light touch on the workpiece, increasing pressure only as required to avoid overheating or gouging the surface. Move the sander evenly across the surface in overlapping passes, allowing the combined orbital-rotary action to produce a uniform finish. Periodically check the abrasive for wear and replace when cutting becomes inefficient.

Usage recommendations

Use grit progression appropriate to the material and stage of work: begin with coarser grits for stock removal, then switch to finer grits for finishing. Ensure proper dust extraction or ventilation when sanding materials that produce hazardous dust. Match air supply capacity to the tool’s requirements and use appropriate fittings and safety equipment, including eye and hearing protection and a dust mask when necessary.
