Sanders
All you need to know about sanders
A good sander is essential for any professional painter, damage repairer, industrial user, avid handyman, DIYer or for occasional use when you're redecorating the house, garden or other applications. Sanders make working with wood, metal, plastic or concrete a lot faster, more efficient and more accurate. Want to buy a sander but don't know which one you need, what to look for when ordering or the difference between types? As specialists in sanding with machines, we explain everything to you here!
Why use a sanding machine?
Sanding by hand is labor-intensive and takes a long time. A sander saves you both a lot of work and time, but also makes the result more beautiful, smooth and consistent. In addition, machine sanding eliminates the chance of unevenness and immediately increases the adhesion of a new coat of paint or lacquer. In short, a sander is a must-have for any handyman, damage repairer or do-it-yourselfer.
What sanders are there?
Sanders come in many different types, sizes and designs. Each machine has its own specialty while sanding. It depends on your job or desire which type of sander is best for you. With Europe's largest range of sanders for professional and DIY use, at CROP you will find, among others:
- Random Orbital sander: thanks to its eccentric rotary sanding stroke, it is ideal for multi-purpose use and smooth sanding of all materials.
- Delta sander: the triangular sanding pad allows for perfect sanding of corners and hard-to-reach areas.
- Sheet sander: especially for large, flat surfaces and light sanding jobs.
- Wall sander: thanks to its long neck (also called Giraffe sander ), sanding walls and ceilings, such as stucco, is ideal.
- Rotary sander: powerful all-rounder for coarse and fine sanding.
- Concrete sander: specialized for hard surfaces such as concrete floors and walls.
- Belt sander: for quick removal of a lot of material.
Choose the right machine
First think about what exactly you will be sanding and what you want to use the machine mostly for. Do you work a lot with wood? Then an orbital sander is often sufficient. Do you need to remove old paint or varnish from a window frame? Then a delta sander is more suitable. Do you want an all-round sander that you can use universally? Then an eccentric sander is always the best choice! Besides the type of machine, ease of use plays a big role. Pay attention to weight, grip and whether the machine is suitable for long-term use. Power (in watts) and dust extraction are also important factors.
Sander with dust extraction
A sander with dust extraction is a luxury to work with. By using a sander with dust extraction, you work neater and cleaner. After all, a lot of fine dust is released during sanding, especially with wood, paint and concrete. With an integrated or external dust extraction system, this is sucked up directly, keeping your work environment clean. This not only prevents eye and respiratory irritation, but also ensures that you have a better view of the surface you are working on. In addition, sanding with dust extraction extends the life of your sandpaper as well as the machine itself. Whether you work indoors or in a workshop, dust-free sanding is more comfortable and professional.
