This 13 amp, 6000 RPM, 2.25 maximum horsepower Milwaukee sander provides high performance and durability for moderately heavy jobs. Sold without accessories, a 7 or 9-inch backing pad and disc can be attached, allowing this tool to be used for removing paint or rust from metal, plastic and fibreglass surfaces. Spiral bevel gears transfer maximum torque for heavy duty jobs and a spring loaded recessed spindle lock assists in easy accessory changes. This tool can be converted to a grinder by purchasing either a 7-inch or 9-inch guard and wheel which are easily attached to the tool. Grinding applications remove more material and may be used to shape metal.
