Orbital sander: secrets to a perfect surface
An orbital sander is a tool that ensures flawless finishing on different materials. It helps achieve a smooth surface without streaks or scratches. The secret lies in choosing the right abrasives and mastering the proper technique.
Advantages of an Orbital Sander
The main advantage is even sanding. Thanks to circular movements, the tool does not leave marks on the surface. This makes it indispensable for working with wood, metal, plastic, and composites.
Choosing Abrasives
The right abrasive determines the quality of the result. For heavy material removal, use coarse-grit sandpaper. For polishing, choose fine-grit discs. Stark Abrasive offers a wide range of abrasives suitable for various tasks.
Working Technique
To achieve a perfect surface, keep the tool at a right angle to the workpiece. Avoid pressing too hard — let the abrasive do the job. Move the sander evenly, without stopping in one place, to prevent defects.
Pro Tips
- Use multiple sanding stages — from coarse to fine.
- Replace worn-out discs regularly.
- Keep the work surface clean.
- Work at medium speed for better control.

Features of the machine
1. Dynorbital Suprim without dust pick-up includes a weight-adjusted, low-profile sanding sole made of quality polyurethane. In addition, a kit is offered that allows you to easily rebuild the tool to work with an automatic or centralized dust removal system. Orbit ø 3/16" (5 mm).
2. Dynorbital Supreme models operate at a speed of 12,000 rpm. The rotor has five blades, which provide higher useful power. The complex rotor is more powerful and has a better lubrication system, which ensures a longer service life of the blades.
3. The composite base is non-slippery and protects the rubberized body from the cold. The pneumatic motor is suspended on vibration-absorbing rubber rings to reduce vibration to a minimum.
4. The front double-row balancer bearing with triple sealing is protected from grinding dust, which extends the service life and reduces maintenance requirements; repair kit 57098 provides a simple replacement.
5. The convenient platform offers an additional support for the hand and wrist, increasing the operator's comfort. Also offers increased protection against the release of cold air (the platform is removable). Order the platform separately to install on existing tools!
Features of the grinder
1. Extreme Capability: The new engine design has the highest power-to-weight ratio in the industry, with 0.3 hp. at 1.8 lbs. Most consistent speed under load in the industry, operating at 92% of rated tool speed. New rotor design increases power with less friction.
2. Extreme Comfort: Ergonomic design with built-in comfort platform for greater wrist support and overall operator comfort. Soft grip combined with a hard composite base body for maximum comfort and durability. An integrated throttle lever eliminates pinch and pressure points on the operator's palms.
