Our line of 3M Elite Self-Generated Vacuum Random Orbital Sanders are 3M best-in-class tools designed to optimize the performance of 3M abrasives. Built with a powerful, precision-balanced air-driven motors and durable lightweight aluminum housing, these ergonomically designed workhorses stand up to industrial production and reduce user fatigue for hours of comfortable operation.
Wrist and hand support
The Elite SGV sander is an integral part of the 3M Clean Sanding System made up of the SGV tool, Clean Sanding disc pad, and Clean Sanding disc (sold separately), engineered to effectively eliminate dust from the workpiece and surrounding space. It uses the inlet air to create its own venturi vacuum that extracts the dust from the work surface and expels it through a wide collection port on the back of the tool into a filter bag. The 3M Clean Sanding Filter Bag included with the tool achieves superior HEPA-rated dust collection with an air filter inside the bag that locks dust away and effectively retains it for disposal.
High Performance, Superior Ergonomics
Designed with the operator in mind, 3M Elite Series Random Orbital Sanders are loaded with ergonomic features that decrease work strain and improve productivity.
- Extended curved wrist rest reduces stress on hand and wrist and provides additional leverage
- Recessed lever platform eliminates pinch and pressure points on the operator's palm
- The rubber grip absorbs and reduces vibration and features 3M Gripping Material for a stronger grip and more control with less effort
- Durable composite cover extends to the base to absorb vibration and keeps tools in service by preventing cracked housings
- Internal muffler protects operator hearing and will not break off
- Convenient thumb-controlled speed dial reduces inadvertent speed changes
3M Elite sanders perform best when paired with 3M disc pads and abrasives. Designed specifically to optimize the performance of these tools, the disc pad maximizes dust extraction and minimizes vibration for smooth operation. The 3M proprietary hole pattern reduces swarf in the middle of the pad and increases disc performance and life. Offering convenience and versatility, the 3M Hookit system enables easy disc changeouts and allows operators to use Scotch-Brite discs in addition to coated abrasive Hookit discs (both sold separately).
Why Choose a Random Orbital Sander?
3M random orbital sanders optimize sanding and surface preparation on wood, metal, fiberglass and composite materials, and many other substrates. Also known as dual action (D/A) palm sanders, these industrial-grade tools rotate the abrasive disc and disc pad in two simultaneous overlapping oval patterns so no single abrasive particle follows the same path twice, producing a random scratch and swirl-free finish ready for paint or varnish.3M Elite Model Features
The 3M Elite Self-Generated Vacuum Random Orbital Sander, model 28511, offers professional-grade performance with a 3 in x 3/16 in orbit size. This model is designed for high-production industrial environments where dust extraction is essential.
Its aluminum body and composite cover reduce cracked housings and downtime, ensuring durability. The self-generated vacuum system creates its own venturi vacuum to extract dust efficiently during sanding.
Durability And Comfort Benefits
Built with a durable aluminum body and composite cover, this sander prevents cracked housings and extends tool life. The ergonomic design reduces user fatigue, making it comfortable for prolonged use.
Features like an extended curved wrist rest and recessed lever platform reduce hand and wrist stress. The rubber grip with 3M Gripping Material absorbs vibration for better control and less effort.
Dust Collection System Advantages
The sander includes HEPA-rated Clean Sanding Filter Bags that eliminate the need for a vacuum hose and improve operator ease of use. Dust is extracted through a wide collection port into the filter bag, locking dust away for safe disposal.
This system is part of the 3M Clean Sanding System, which optimizes dust extraction and keeps the work environment cleaner. It helps maintain a swirl-free finish on various surfaces.
Power And Performance Details
Powered pneumatically, this sander exceeds the capability of standard electric sanders, providing hours of continual use. Its precision-balanced steel workings and air-driven motor run smoothly with less vibration.
The 3 in x 3/16 in orbit size supports efficient sanding on wood, metal, fiberglass, and composites. This makes it ideal for demanding industrial applications requiring consistent, swirl-free finishes.
Included Accessories And Pack
The 3M Elite sander comes with a 3M Hookit Disc Pad included for optimal performance. This pad maximizes dust extraction and minimizes vibration, enhancing sanding efficiency and comfort.
It is sold as 1 ea/Case, making it easy to manage inventory and supply. The Hookit system allows quick disc changes and compatibility with Scotch-Brite discs, adding versatility to the tool.
