Pro-source 5510010022PRO Air Orbital Sander 6 in Pad

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 5510010022PRO is a pneumatic palm-style orbital sander built for trade and shop use. It accepts a 6-inch round sanding pad and operates at 12,000 orbits per minute (OPM), making it suitable for surface preparation, finish sanding, and material removal on flat and contoured workpieces. The tool connects via a 1/4-inch NPT air inlet and requires 3 CFM at 90 psi for full operation. At 4.6 pounds, it is compact enough for extended hand-held use. HVAC sheet metal techs, millwrights, pipefitters, and general trades installers commonly use orbital sanders for surface prep before bonding, coating, or sealing work.

This sander is suited for residential and light commercial applications where a consistent swirl-free finish is required. Typical use cases include preparing metal, wood, or composite surfaces prior to coating or adhesive application. The palm grip design keeps the pad flat against the workpiece, reducing the risk of gouging or uneven material removal. It is well-suited to finish work in mechanical rooms, fabrication shops, and on-site installations where a portable pneumatic tool is preferred over corded electric alternatives.

Key Features

• 6-inch round pad for broad surface coverage in a single pass
• 12,000 OPM operating speed for efficient material removal and smooth finish results
• Palm sander form factor for controlled, low-fatigue one-handed operation
• 1/4-inch NPT inlet compatible with standard shop air fittings
• Runs at 90 psi with 3 CFM air consumption, fitting most portable compressor setups

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 6-inch round hook-and-loop or PSA sanding discs. Compatible with any air supply system delivering at least 3 CFM at 90 psi through a 1/4-inch NPT quick-connect or threaded fitting.

Installation Notes

Installation and operation should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with pneumatic tool safety. Before connecting to an air supply, verify the line pressure does not exceed the rated 90 psi maximum to avoid tool damage or injury. Ensure the air supply line is drained of moisture and fitted with an inline filter-regulator-lubricator (FRL) unit to extend tool life. Disconnect the air supply before changing sanding pads or performing any maintenance.
