The Details:
The 6″ Random Orbit Sander (model BO6050J) with variable speed has a two-mode switch for random orbit action (finish sanding and buffing) and random orbit with forced rotation (aggressive sanding and polishing), providing leading wood sanding performance in Douglas-Fir and SPF.
This model offers a variable speed control dial with an increased range of random orbits (1,600-6,800 OPM) and sanding strokes (3,200-13,600) allowing you to match the speed to the application. The compact tool height, 5-3/4 inches, and reduced weight, 5.7lbs., increases efficiency and maneuverability, while the ergonomically designed barrel grip delivers optimum comfort and control.
The BO6050J pairs perfectly with the VC4210 Wet/Dry Vacuum for excellent dust extraction at 148 CFM of suction power and 92″ of water lift. Engineered with a “tool-less” pad change system, the BO6050J uses convenient hook-and-loop abrasive sanding discs (6″) that enable a fast and efficient workflow.
Every Makita product carries a 1-year warranty unless otherwise stated. (Some products have a longer warranty, i.e. Lithium-Ion Tools, Batteries & Chargers include a 3-year warranty, etc.)
