The electric flexible orbital sander FS 42070 E is a unique, worldwide patented electric flexible sander specially designed for sanding curved surfaces. The sander has a connector for an external dust extraction system and is equipped with speed control.
With this sander you can quickly and easily sand ideal curves and surfaces. Due to its size and high flexibility, this type of abrasive plate is particularly suitable for sanding smaller or medium-sized surfaces or surfaces with low radius of curvature. Abrasive plate is especially suitable for auto body repairs, shipbuilding and repairs, production of furniture, models and composite industry.
The sander is designed for sanding concave and convex surfaces. The sanding paper is fastened with Velcro. Recommended abrasive papers are here. The abrasive plate is torsionally flexible.
The main reason is because unlike a wall, ship or car bodies are not flat. They are curved. Unfortunately, ordinary tools are not. With a rigid spatula or a rigid sander, you can notice that it is connected only partly with the surface. More curved the surface is, smaller contact between spatula or sander and your material is. This means uneven layers of filler and badly sanded surface. If you do it ruthlessly, your material suffers. If you want to do it precisely, you sooner or later understand,
Sanding curved surfaces without the right tools is hard! The operator needs to be a very skilled person because every bad move can cause an unevenness or damage.
It is also very time-consuming activity which is in other words very expensive for companies. No wonder companies like Boeing, Delphia yachts or Škoda Auto use our products.
