The arm is built to pivot up to 100 degrees, giving the user access to locations that are extremely narrow as well as in a difficult to access angle. Some models come with optional alternate arm assemblies, including 1/4" and 1/2" sizes.
Makita Polisher Sanders
There are a variety of Makita polisher sanders available. Sometimes referred to as a finishing sander, these models general use cut sheets of your favorite sandpaper, making it easy to supply the perfect sanding grit for the application you are working with. From small and light models to heavier buffing pads, a Makita sander polisher is a popular choice. There is even a wet stone polisher, which connects water and delivers it onto the stone as you work, specially designed for stone masons and tile flooring projects.
Makita Orbit Sanders
The Makita orbit sander is available in one of the lightest version on the market, incorporating a full 5" orbital disc with up to 300 orbits per minute motor speed. Orbital and random orbit sanders are available for many types of sanding application, and meant to be used on wood, plastic, metal, stone, and other materials with equal ease.
Makita Disc Sanders
Makita disc sanders are available in a variety of working weights, for different applications. Disc sanders are often used to buff large surfaces, but they can be equally effective with a coarse grinding wheel at smooth uneven flooring or stone face applications. Disc sizes range from 5 to 7 inches, and larger disc sizes may be used on some models.
Makita Palm Sanders
A Makita palm sander is the perfect tool for small projects or putting the smoothest finish possible on a large one. This type of compact sander tool is designed to be held in the palm of the hand and moved over surfaces, making it ideal for curved surfaces or multiple surfaces types and angles. As versatile power tools, sanders are among the best additions you could add to any tool collection.
