An Orbital Sander is a precision finishing tool that uses a circular sanding motion to deliver smooth, swirl-free surfaces. It operates by moving the sanding pad in tiny orbits while it spins, ensuring that no single part of the abrasive stays in one place for too long. This results in fine, even finishes on wood, metal, or painted surfaces. Orbital sanders are widely used in automotive refinishing, woodworking, and surface preparation, offering excellent control, comfort, and accuracy for both professionals and DIY users.
