Description
Professional-grade systems for sanding walls and ceilings with practically no dust, these kits combine a LEROS long-reach sander and a rolling dust collector, along with a vacuum hose and hose sleeve, a handle extension and a selection of abrasive discs.
The sander weighs just 3.5kg (7.7 lb), with a well-balanced, ergonomic design so it’s easy to handle. It connects to the Mirka 1230 HEPA PC or the Mirka 1230 HEPA AFC (Automatic Filter Cleaning) dust collector with a 13' vacuum hose and has a pattern of holes in the platen to distribute suction across the entire sanding disc, extracting dust right at the source to minimize clean-up.
The PC model has a Push and Clean cleaning system, whereas the AFC has an automatic self-cleaning cycle – a particular advantage when using an aggressive sander for heavy stock removal, as it lets you keep working for longer periods without having to clear loaded vacuum filters manually.
The sander head pivots 180° so you can approach the work from a comfortable angle, with the vacuum suction helping maintain flush contact. At 47" long, the sander lets users of average height use a broad, sweeping motion to reach from floor to ceiling in most residential interiors. For greater reach, a 19 1/2" extension threads on the end of the handle.
The sander has seven speeds from 4000 to 8000 rpm. The 9" diameter platen and aggressive 5mm orbit pattern permit rapid sanding of large surfaces, while the platen’s bevelled sides help avoid contact with adjacent surfaces when sanding close to an inside corner.
To make the hose and power cord easier to manage, they can be bundled together in an included sleeve. Made of a soft, durable anti-static material, it resists picking up debris to help protect surfaces from scratches.
Each kit comes with 60 Abranet grip discs (10 each of 80x, 100x, 120x, 150x, 180x and 240x), which use aluminum oxide grit bonded to a tough polyamide mesh, allowing sanding dust to be drawn through the entire disc to resist loading and maximize dust recovery.
