Delivering great power and speed, the Makita 300W Random Orbital Sander is ideal for large surface sanding and polishing applications whether you're working with wood, metal or plastic materials. This corded random orbital sander features a Makita-built motor with an engine power of 300W (continuous rating input), delivering a speed of 4,000 - 12,000 orbits per minute. The sanders built-in dust extraction system provides a high extraction rate for professional, low-dust sanding performance, while its contoured front grip easily rotates 300 degrees around the motor housing to allow for superior manoeuvrability. The pad brake is designed to help prevent gouging when the sanding sheet first contacts the material, offering improved control and added user safety. For maximum control, the sanding speed can be precisely adjusted by simply turning the speed adjusting dial.
