DeWalt DW423K 5 inch Heavy Duty Random Orbit Sander with Electronic... DeWalt MORE INFO

Amazon.com DeWalt's 5-inch random-orbit sander is a great tool for professional woodworkers and painters, as well as homeowners looking for a reliable sander for do-it-yourself projects. It has a 2 amp motor that provides up to 12,000 orbits per minute, with a 3/32 orbit diameter. Its controlled finishing system maintains consistent control over the pad speed, minimizing gouging at startup, and the variable-speed motor ramps smoothly between speed levels when adjusted on the fly. While it has less vibration than many sanders we've tried--thanks in part to DeWalt's dual-plane counterbalanced fan--we found that gripping the tool from the side rather than from the top seemed to be easier on the hands. The top grip could get tiresome in extended-use situations. We liked the dust canister configuration on this tool, which uses a simple and effective twist-lock mechanism to help prevent air pressure from popping the canister off the tool. The sealed switch is also a good idea that will help prevent dust contamination problems. The kit comes with the sander, a dust collector, a vacuum attachment, and the case. --Brian Trinen From the Manufacturer Sander comes with a Controlled Finishing System that keeps the pad spinning at the correct speed whether on or off the work. No more start-up scratching and gouging. The aggressive 2.0 amp motor, and 12,000 OPM, means you'll get the finish you're looking for faster. What's more, DeWalt's Palm Grip Random Orbit Sander picks up to 80% of all dust. The sander accepts 5-inch holed paper with the hook-and-loop system to allow for easy paper change. Includes kit box.
