Introducing the GEM 11-Inch Orbital Sander & Polisher (with a dust shroud) - The ultimate solution for the woodworking and solid surface industries. This heavy-duty machine boasts an impressive 11-inch drive pad, providing unparalleled coverage that outperforms any other sander on the market. With its exceptional speed and efficiency, the GEM Polisher allows you to tackle large areas such as table tops and slabs with remarkable ease.
The standout feature of this remarkable machine lies in its ability to cover extensive surfaces swiftly. Its unrivaled speed makes it the ideal choice for sanding large areas, delivering significantly faster results compared to other sanders available. While reducing labor is an added advantage, the primary selling point of the GEM Polisher is its remarkable speed and ability to tackle expansive projects effectively.
With a smooth and hand-polish action, the GEM Orbital Sander/Polisher runs at 1700 “orbits” per minute, avoiding the creation of those annoying swirl marks commonly associated with high-speed rotary buffers. The well-balanced and smooth-running counterweight system enables you to guide the sander over the surface, letting the 18 lbs. of weight do the work for you.
The GEM Orbital Sander is equipped with the latest innovation in solid surface and woodworking industries, using an orbital action that sands, polishes, and finishes with a motion like that of the human hand. This ensures a uniform and equal finish on solid surfaces and wood products. Additionally, it is available with or without a dust shroud for dust collection, with the option to purchase the dust shroud separately at a later time.
