CP's Pneumatic SX Series Sanders Now Give Operators A Handle On Surface Perfection


There's nothing like a smooth finish on metal and wood. And to help you attain an exceptional surface finish more easily Chicago Pneumatic (CP) now provides a long handle on its low profile SX sanders.

The temperature-insulating, oil-resistant handle accommodates comfortable positioning for single- or two-handled control, as shown below. And, as with non-handled versions of SX Sanders, palm grips are included in two sizes for added operator comfort.

The handled SX Series Sanders rotate at 12,000 rpm. Choose between 5-inch or 6-inch diameter models in three types: non-vacuum, self-vacuum and external vacuum. Most models are available in choice of two random orbiting patterns:
o 3/16 in / 5 mm diameter for a standard finish
o 3/32 in / 2.4 mm diameter for an ultra fine finish.

Features of the SX Sanders
o Single- or two-handed control
o Rotating exhaust silencer on non-vacuum and external vacuum sanders directs exhaust air 30 degrees away from operator
o Internal counterweights reduce vibration to less than 2.5 m/s2 for all tools
o Noise levels are 76 dB(A) for non-vacuum tools, 78 dB(A) for external vacuum tools, and 85 dB(A) for self vacuum tools
o Powerful 0.3 horsepower motor
o Rated for 2,000 hours of service
o Power to noise level ratio: 210W (0.3 hp) / 76 dB(A)
o Dimensions: Length: 10 in / 262 mm; height with pad: 3.25 in / 83 mm

SX Sander Range
Self-vacuum sanders (ending in V) include a hose and bag. Central vacuum models (ending in C) are designed for facilities with a central dust collection system. Two of the non-vacuum models offer a vinyl pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) sanding pad. Sanding discs are not included.
