BOSCH ROS20VSC Palm Sander 2.5 Amp 5 in. Corded Variable Speed Random Orbital Sander/Polisher Kit with Dust Collector and Soft Carrying Bag

Product Information

Its dust sealed and not too much of an issue, but the first time I used it I plugged it in and it started sanding as I’d knocked the switch. Includes: RS034 Soft Sanding Pad, 2609199179 Micofilter Dust Canister, VAC002 Vacuum Hose Adapter, Sanding Disc, 2609170071 Dampening Ring, Carrying Bag. As a professional, a lot is expected of you: speed, reliability, competence, endurance – in short: excellent results.

If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. In contrast with the recently reviewed Milwaukee sander, I could sand with this for hours before noticing any detrimental effects – if any at all. Even if we had more options, they’d have to be something very special to beat the GEX 125-150 AVE in comfort. This gives the duct tape the same inside diameter as the pipe, so the pipe fits snugly into the duct tape.

If you register the tool online within four weeks of purchase, you extend the warranty to 36 months. If you don’t want to spend five to nine hundred dollars, but still want a top notch sander with minimal vibration, the Bosch GEX 125-150 AVE is for you.

The system funnels sawdust into a microfilter canister, trapping particles as small as half-a-micron in diameter. The Milwaukee won the speed test but after the ~3minutes, I had to wait 20minutes or so for the vibration tingles to leave my hands. Its lightweight, ergonomic design makes it easy to handle all sorts of work without fatigue, the sand discs are easy to swap in and out, and the pad dampening system eliminates swirl marks.When you’re done using a pad, all you have to do is find the space between the disc and the main pad, and then peel it back. I have been operating like this with other sanders anyway – they don’t stall, but to reduce the likely hood of swirlies. With an orbit of 4mm, its neither overly aggressive or overly fine according to the industry definitions. I prefer my sanders – and most power tools in general – to have triggers with locks rather than just a power switch, which is unfortunately what the GEX 125-1 AE has.
