Swirl-Free Electric Disc Sanders

Prevent swirl marks to leave a more consistent finish than rotary disc sanders. Also known as random orbital sanders, these sanders move in small irregular circles. No single part of the abrasive follows the same path twice, resulting in a swirl-free finish. A dust collection system draws dust through the sanding pad and into a collection canister. This keeps your work surface clean and reduces how much dust is kicked into the air. Use with hook and loop sanding discs.
Sanders cannot be sold outside the United States due to product regulations.

Cordless Swirl-Free Disc Sanders
Create a consistent finish on quick sanding jobs where you don’t have access to air or electric power. Also known as random orbital sanders, they move in small irregular circles to leave a more consistent finish than rotary disc sanders. The variable-speed motor lets you set the speed for any task, from heavy material removal to delicate surface sanding. To conform to curves and crevices for a consistent finish, they include a cushioning pad. Use these sanders with hook and loop sanding discs. The battery and charger are also sold separately.
To remove dust from the air and extend the life of the sanding sheet, these sanders have a dust collection bag.
Makita sanders, batteries, chargers, and replacement parts cannot be sold outside the United States due to product regulations.

Electric Belt Sanders for Curved Surfaces



Make more contact with curved surfaces for a more consistent finish than you’d get with a standard electric belt sander. These belt sanders flex around pipe, tubing, and handrails. To adjust the speed, you don’t have to remove your hand from the tool—just turn the dial with your thumb. Take note, these sanders will not work on concave surfaces, such as the inside of a pipe. Additional sanding belts are sold separately.
Sanders for workpiece diameters up to 14" are designed to contour to large diameters, such as pipes. A built-in damping mechanism helps the belt conform around your workpiece, so you don't have to press as hard, especially for large diameters. They have a contact wheel on the front, which is helpful for tough material removal, such as cleaning spot welds or removing deep scratches. When working overhead, there’s an additional handle you can install on the top of these sanders to maintain a steady grip.
Sanders for workpiece diameters up to 3 1/4" are designed for precise sanding around small diameters, such as handrails. They’ll flex up to 270° around the surface, so you only have to spin your workpiece slightly to sand around the entire diameter. The top handle is adjustable to give you a steady grip at many angles.

Cordless Sheet Sanders
Battery powered for portability, these sheet sanders handle quick jobs where you don’t have access to an air or electric power source. Shaped for rectangular sanding sheets, they reach into corners and sand edges better than disc sanders. They move in small circles for a lighter sand than random orbital sanders and don’t vibrate much, so you can use them on delicate workpieces. However, because they move in consistent circles, they may leave light swirl marks on your surface. The variable-speed motor lets you set the speed for any task, from heavy material removal to delicate surface sanding.
These sanders have a built-in vacuum to remove dust from the air and surface of the sanding sheet to extend its life. All include a dust collection bag. To make your sanding sheet compatible with the vacuum holes of the sander, use the included sandpaper punch. Connect sanders with a dust collection hose adapter to a vacuum for an alternative to the collection bag.
Makita sanders, batteries, chargers, and replacement parts cannot be sold outside the United States due to product regulations.

Flap Wheel Sanders
Sand both flat and irregularly shaped workpieces without gouging or leaving behind streaks. With a flexible flap wheel (sold separately), these sanders conform to any surface for a uniform finish.
Use a drum and sleeve (both sold separately) instead of a flap wheel for tough jobs such as removing deep scratches, spot welds, and rust. The drum is also known as an expansion roller.

Electric Pole Sanders
When you need to sand large walls or ceilings, these electric pole sanders outperform manual and cordless ones. Hook them up to a vacuum system so they suction to your workpiece, reducing how much pressure you need to apply and even how heavy they feel. With suction, they feel 60% lighter (about 3 lbs.). Adjust the suction strength to find the right pressure to easily guide the sander along your surface. You'll get all the traditional benefits of using a vacuum system too—less mess, cleaner air, and longer life for your sanding disc (sold separately). The dust hood directs dust and debris right into the vacuum. You can position the side handle wherever you need along the length of the pole to improve your grip.
The variable-speed motor lets you set the speed for any task, from heavy material removal to delicate surface sanding. A cushioning pad between the backup pad and sanding disc conforms to bumps and crevices to distribute pressure evenly for a fine and consistent finish.
