Materials & Construction
This is a pneumatic random orbital sander built around RUPES' Skorpio III platform, combining a 150mm pad and 9mm orbit with central vac dust extraction for controlled, low-vibration material removal and a smoother finish.
Product Description
Why you'll want it
- Quiet, with low vibration. The Skorpio III is designed to pair tremendous power with low vibration. Balanced internal parts keep the shaking down so the work feels smoother.
- Easy to hold for long jobs. The body has an anti-slip rubber coating for better handling. The throttle lever supports your wrist and fits into the body to eliminate pinch points.
- A fine finish ready for paint. The 9mm orbit is made for finishing with P320 and higher grade abrasives. It leaves a high-quality finish that is perfectly prepared for paint and other coatings.
- Get ready for spring this fall. Fall haul-out is a good time to sand and prep for paint, so your boat is ready in spring.
What it is
This is the RUPES Skorpio III, a palm pneumatic random orbital sander made by RUPES. It has a 150mm pad and a 9mm orbit, and this version is set up for central vac dust extraction.
What else the job needs
Good to have on hand: P320 or higher grade abrasives, which the record says suit the 9mm orbit for finishing, and a central vac for dust extraction. Pairs well with an air supply that fits the 1/4 inch GAS air inlet thread.
