Makita DBO180Z 18V Li-Ion LXT Sander - Batteries and Charger Not Included

Product Information

The DBO180Z is a cordless sander powered by 18V Li-ion batteries (not included), with simple to operate one touch electronic push button switch with 3 stage speed control, fast, medium and low settings, to deliver up to 7,000, 9,500 and 11,000 orbits per minute for faster material removal.

The Makita DBO180 cordless 125mm random orbit sander has a short height and low centre of gravity, meaning it has great manoeuvrability. It can be used for sanding of large surfaces of wood, plastic, and metal materials, including those that have been previously painted.

Versatile Sanding: The 125mm disc size and random orbit motion make this sander suitable for various sanding applications, including smoothing surfaces, removing paint, and preparing for finishing. The switch and bearing are dust sealed for longer tool life, with efficient through the pad dust collection system for a cleaner work environment. Pressing the start/speed button once starts the tool in high-speed mode and each subsequent press changes the speed to middle-speed, low-speed, and back to high-speed in a cycle. Ease-of-use and powerful sanding capabilities are precisely what this Body only Makita DBO180Z 18V LXT 125mm / 5 Random Orbit Sander provides. But used at say waist-level and below, on horizontal surfaces, and it’s comfortable to use for extended periods.

Makita Power Tools, Batteries and Chargers purchased from Power Tools UK are warranted to be free of defects from workmanship and materials for a period of 12 months from the original date of invoice. If you’re only looking for a sander and can’t see yourself getting other cordless tools that use the same batteries and chargers, this will be an expensive purchase. It’s a shame the kit comes with only one 120-grit sandpaper disc – I would have liked to have seen a selection of different grits provided, and perhaps 2 or 3 of the common ones.

If you’re looking for a cordless finish sander and will predominantly be using it for sanding horizontal surfaces where it’s not easy to get mains power, this could be the ideal kit for you. Makita sell a range of accessories including hook-and-loop type abrasive discs (sandpaper), sponge pads, felt pads and wool pads for polishing, a dust box, paper filter bags and various batteries and chargers.
