Give Your Vehicle A Professional Look With An Air Sander
An orbital sander is a must-have tool for the serious furniture and cabinet maker, panel beater and painter, or car detailer. Owning a quality sander makes all the difference in a job well done. Quality tools mean quality work. If you are looking to replace an existing orbital sander in your workshop or garage, consider purchasing a pneumatic air sander. One of the most obvious benefits is the size and weight of the air sander, the compact size of the air sander allows for a smoother finish and more control of the sander. On eBay you will find a variety of air sanders in different shapes and sizes to suit.
An overview of automotive air sanders
The air-powered sander has many advantages, including speed - air-powered sanders which can be much faster and have less vibration than other models. They generally require a power outlet to operate.
An air sander is used to make the surfaces smooth, including wood, metal, fibreglass, and composite materials. It uses a small, compressed air hose attached to an industrial compressor. The hose should be large enough to allow sufficient airflow to the sander. Considerations include:
- Air-powered sanders are the most common type of sander and when buying, it's essential to consider that the air compressor needs to be powerful enough to meet the needs of the sander.
- You may choose a sander that has speed control to ensure you can choose the right speed to complete different types of work.
- The most common type of air-powered sander is the orbital sander. This sander is often used for metalwork or in auto body shops. Because it uses pneumatic power, the air sander can be very fast and smooth.
Air-powered sanders have an air compressor to power the sander. It is quieter than its electric counterparts and requires less electricity to operate. These sanders are more portable than their electric counterparts and are ideal for working on the go. Both air-powered and cordless sanders are versatile and can be adjusted to work with various materials.
You are certain to find an air sander on eBay to suit all your sanding needs. You can choose from random orbit sanders, belt sanders, detail sanders, straight line sanders or finishing sanders. Once you find what you want, be sure to shop for extra sanding discs before you finalise your purchase. You can also grab other tools and accessories for your vehicle, such as grease guns and digital instrument cluster.
