More about Air Sanders

Air sanders have been around for a long time and are considered the predecessor to the electric version. Thus, Discover incredible performance from air sanders with a unique ergonomic design and rubber over-mold create an excellent non-slip feel, while the rubber coating insulates from the cold. Air Sander provide virtually swirl-free sanding at even fairly coarse grits (120 grit), and completely swirl-free sanding at no higher than 180 grit. The sander has a much longer life-span than the electric types. One of the biggest benefits of air sander is that the speed is infinitely variable. Air Sanders has a built-in air-valve to limit air volume internally, thus allowing you the freedom to operate the sander from a couple of orbits per second to 10,000 orbits per second. With an electric sander, the longer it runs the more heat gets built up but with the air sander, the more it runs, the colder it gets. The air keeps the whole unit cool.
