Chicago Pneumatic 8941072001 Air Random Orbital Sander

Product Description

The CHICAGO PNEUMATIC 8941072001 is a right angle air-powered random orbital sander designed for precision surface finishing in tight spaces. Driven by compressed air at 90 psi, it spins a 2-inch hook-and-loop round backing pad at up to 15,000 orbits per minute (OPM) with a 0.09375-inch orbit diameter for consistent scratch patterns and smooth material removal. Air consumption runs at 21 CFM, and the tool connects via a 1/4-inch inlet. Licensed HVAC techs, auto body technicians, metalworkers, and general trade professionals use this sander for finishing, deburring, and prep work where a larger tool will not fit.

This sander is built for applications requiring a compact footprint and right-angle head geometry. The 2-inch pad size suits localized surface prep, weld seam blending, and detail finishing on metal, fiberglass, wood, and composite materials. A minimum hose size of 0.375 inches is required to maintain adequate airflow. The tool is intended for professional shop and field use where a reliable compressed-air supply at 90 psi is available.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by personnel familiar with pneumatic tool safety practices. Before connecting or disconnecting the air line, depressurize the supply hose and verify the air source is shut off. Ensure the compressor and hose assembly meet the minimum 0.375-inch hose size and 90 psi operating pressure requirements before use. Always wear appropriate eye and hearing protection when operating pneumatic abrasive tools.
