Dotco 12L1280-36B2 Air Belt Sander 0.3 Hp 12000 Rpm

Product Description

The DOTCO 12L1280-36B2 is a pneumatic belt sander designed for demanding material finishing tasks in industrial and fabrication environments. Powered by compressed air at 90 psi, it delivers 12,000 no-load RPM through a 1/2-inch-wide, 12-inch-long belt. Output is rated at 0.3 horsepower (0.22 kW), providing consistent stock removal without the heat buildup associated with electric tools. The rear exhaust directs air away from the work surface. Air supply connects through a 1/4-inch inlet, and the overall tool length is 11.3 inches. Licensed tradespeople and skilled fabricators are the primary installers and operators of this tool.

The 12L1280-36B2 is suited for blending, deburring, grinding, and strap polishing on metal, composites, and similar industrial substrates. It performs well in tight workspaces where a longer tool would be impractical. The 11.3-inch overall length and rear exhaust design make it practical for use in production lines, repair shops, and maintenance applications where a clean, continuous finish pass is required. A minimum hose inside diameter of 0.25 inches is required to sustain adequate air volume at the tool.

Key Features

• 12,000 no-load RPM for fast material removal and finishing
• 1/2-inch by 12-inch belt size handles blending, deburring, grinding, and strap polishing
• 0.3 HP (0.22 kW) pneumatic motor reduces heat buildup compared to electric alternatives
• 1/4-inch air inlet compatible with standard shop air fittings
• Rear exhaust keeps debris and air blast away from the operator and work surface
• CE Certified and compliant with DIN EN ISO 12100 and 2006/42/EC machinery directive

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/2-inch by 12-inch abrasive belts. Requires a compressed air supply capable of delivering 16 CFM at 90 psi through a minimum 0.25-inch inside-diameter hose.

Installation Notes

Disconnect the air supply before installing or changing belts. Verify that the air line and fittings are rated for the operating pressure before connecting. Confirm air volume capacity at the compressor or distribution point before sustained use, as inadequate CFM will reduce tool performance. Always wear appropriate eye and hearing protection when operating pneumatic abrasive tools.
