Metabo’s heavy-duty SXE450 sander gives you the best that random-orbit sanding has to offer: your choice of 1/4” orbit size for sanding almost as aggressively as a belt sander, or 1/8” orbit for very fine, swirl-free finishing. Its 3.8 amp motor offers variable speed from 4000 to 10000 orbits per minute, providing precise control of surface removal rate. SXE450 features a disc braking system that lets you lift the running sander to inspect your work, then put it back again with no risk of gouging. Its 6” hook & loop backing pad is perforated (6 hole) for dust pickup into the sander’s standard disposable paper dust bag (a reusable canvas bag is available), or of course you can connect your shop vac’s hose directly to the machine for the most efficient possible sanding and dust control.
