3M 7100038057 Random Orbital Sander Elite Series

Product Description

The 3M 7100038057 is a random orbital sander from the Elite Series line, built for professional surface preparation and finishing applications. It features a 3-inch pad with a 3/32-inch orbit and a self-generated vacuum system that captures sanding dust at the source, keeping the work surface clear and reducing cleanup time. The curved-throttle lever is alloy steel with a built-in wrist support, and the interchangeable comfort grip incorporates molded gripping material for control during extended use. A conveniently located speed control dial allows on-the-fly adjustment, and an internal muffler reduces operating noise. The unit ships with a Hookit Clean Sanding Disc Pad, a Filter Bag Adaptor, and a Clean Sanding Filter Bag included.

This sander is suited for professional woodworking, auto body prep, and industrial finishing tasks where dust control and consistent orbital action are priorities. The self-generated vacuum design makes it practical in environments where a central vacuum hookup is not available. It is intended for use by skilled tradespeople and professional finishing technicians working on production or detail sanding operations.
