Mirka Deros 150mm Random Orbital Sander - 8mm Orbit 680CV is ideal for general sanding tasks on all kinds of surfaces, the DEROS 680CV is engineered to deliver the best possible power, ergonomics and working environment to the user. Its 8.0mm oscillation makes it perfect for efficient stock removal, meaning the 680CV is ideally suited to coarse sanding applications. However, when finishing an unpainted surface with an even-grained abrasive such as Abranet, the 8mm orbit's scratch pattern is not noticeable unless a mirror finish is required. Painted surfaces would be better finished with the 650CV.
The Mirka DEROS 680CV is a class-leading sanding machine with a brushless motor and purely internal power supply. With a compact transformer built right into the handle, it delivers performance comparable to a 500W sander in a feather-light package. The electronic control is capable of maintaining a constant motor speed of up to 10,000rpm even under heavy load, running on 220-240V mains power.
All DEROS sanders have a soft start function to minimise stress on the wrist, as well as a brake, so there is no waiting for the pad to wind down after use. The DEROS's unique symmetrical design makes it just as comfortable whether it s being used in the left or the right hand, and the longer body provides the option of a two-hand grip. No matter how it is held, it is easy to operate smoothly with the ergonomic stop/go lever situated on top of the machine.
When coupled with an extraction system the DEROS 680CV provides an almost dust-free sanding experience. It's 150mm backing pad is patterned with openings to accommodate the dust extraction features of most commonly available varieties of sandpaper, and when used with Abranet abrasives it will extract dust through every single one. All dust is extracted through a central air inlet for improved airflow and the most efficient dust extraction possible.
The perimeter of the pad holds six additional dust extraction inlets above the work surface capable of sucking up dust that may escape from the side of the pad during sanding. For ideal results, Best Abrasives recommends pairing the 680CV with a Mirka Dust Extractor. However, any commercial vacuum can be used with a DEROS sander using a hose and connector.
