Dynabrade 56815 Palm Air Random Orbital Sander 5 Inch

Product Description

The DYNABRADE 56815 is a palm-style air-powered random orbital sander designed for surface finishing applications in professional trade and industrial environments. Operating at 12,000 orbits per minute with an airflow requirement of 18 CFM at 90 psig, this tool delivers consistent stock removal and finish quality on flat and contoured surfaces. It accepts a 5-inch round sanding pad and features a 3/16-inch orbit diameter, making it well suited for fine finishing, paint prep, and blending work. The 1/4 NPT inlet connects to standard shop air lines. At 2.5 pounds, the tool reduces operator fatigue during extended use. Licensed contractors, automotive refinishers, and industrial maintenance technicians are the primary users.

The 56815 is used in bodywork, woodworking, metal fabrication, and general surface preparation where a random orbital pattern is required to minimize swirl marks and achieve a uniform finish. The palm grip form factor suits overhead and horizontal surface work. A minimum hose size of 0.25 inches is required to maintain adequate air volume to the tool. The included premium urethane weight-mated sanding pad is matched to the tool for balanced operation at rated speed.

Key Features

• 12,000 OPM operating speed for fast material removal and consistent finish
• 5-inch round pad accepts standard hook-and-loop or PSA abrasives
• 3/16-inch orbit diameter optimized for fine finishing and swirl-free results
• 18 CFM at 90 psig air requirement compatible with shop compressor systems via 1/4 NPT inlet
• Includes premium urethane weight-mated sanding pad for balanced, vibration-reduced operation
• Lightweight 2.5-pound body reduces fatigue during extended sanding sessions

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 5-inch round random orbital sanding pads. Requires a compressed air supply capable of delivering 18 CFM at 90 psig through a minimum 0.25-inch hose and 1/4 NPT fitting.

Installation Notes

This tool is installed by connecting it to a regulated compressed air supply set to 90 psig through a 1/4 NPT air fitting and a hose of at least 0.25 inches in diameter. Always depressurize the air line before attaching or removing the tool or changing the sanding pad. Verify air supply pressure and volume match the tool requirements before operation to avoid under-speeding or overspeeding. Follow applicable workplace safety standards for respiratory protection and eye protection when sanding.
