HiKOKI Orbital Sander

An orbital sander is a versatile power tool used for sanding and smoothing various surfaces, primarily in woodworking and finishing applications. It features a motor that drives a sanding pad in a circular motion with a small orbit.

The sanding pad of an orbital sander moves in a random pattern, which helps to prevent swirl marks and ensures a smooth finish without leaving distinct sanding patterns. This makes it particularly effective for finishing tasks such as smoothing wood surfaces, removing old paint or varnish, and preparing surfaces for painting or staining.

Orbital sanders come in various sizes, from handheld models suitable for small projects to larger bench-mounted units for larger surfaces. They often feature dust collection systems to minimize airborne dust and debris, as well as ergonomic designs for comfortable operation during prolonged use. Orbital sanders are essential tools for professionals and DIY enthusiasts seeking efficient and high-quality surface finishing results.
