About this item
- The Bosch GSS20-40 Orbital Finishing Sander was engineered for sanding surfaces with very tight orbital motions. It is driven by an advanced high speed electrical motor with a powerful capacity of 2.0 amps and 12,000 oscillations per minute.
- This orbital sander, also known as a palm sander, includes a precision-machined aluminum sanding plate developed for even sanding and long-lasting durability that will add the perfect finishing touch to all of your woodworking projects.
- The GSS20-40 features a dust collection system that provides a micro-filter dust canister with a screw-off cap. This efficient system optimizes dust collection by extracting all dust through the pad--ranging from coarse to fine particles.
- The soft-grip was designed with a functional focus. This ensures low-vibration and provides stable handling for secure user control. The ergonomics of the sander enhances comfort for the user and long-term applications.
- The sander provides a reliable clamping and pad design that accepts multiple sanding sheets including stick-on paper. The sander offers flush sanding, which provides the user with a different array of applications for all project needs.
