Metabo SXE400 - 3-1/8" Random Orbit Disc Sander

The SXE400's Variospeed full-wave electronic speed control makes the sander suitable for several types of applications, including woodworking, automotive bodywork, fine metalworking, and polishing.

Weighing only 3.3 lb., the SXE400 is easily maneuverable and its low 4-1/8" profile makes the sander compact enough to get into confined spaces difficult to reach with larger sanders. Dust extraction is conducted through the sanding pad itself, so there is no bulky shroud to obscure the work surface. The small 3-1/8" sanding disc diameter enables even pressure to be exerted over the entire sanding surface, resulting in clean sanding on narrow surfaces such as door and window frames.

The small size of the SXE400 allows for better control when sanding over curves, making the sander well suited for convex surfaces, and its small pad size enables the easy sanding of concave surfaces a well.

The SXE400's Power Control System, featuring an integrated backing pad brake, helps eliminate sanding scratches, which significantly reduces the time needed to smooth sanded surfaces, resulting in increased productivity.

The SXE400 provides 5,000 to 10,000 orbits per minute with a 2.0 Amp motor and features an orbit size of 1/8". Triple dust-sealed bearings help increase the life of the sander. Standard equipment includes a hexagon key for changing the backing pad and 5 cling-fit sanding discs .
