Ingersoll Rand 328B Dual Action Geared Orbital Air Sander, 8" Adhesive Pad, 5/32" Orbit, 825 RPM, 0.25 HP

Nice pneumatic orbital sander. Well made. Great for prepping large panels and knocking down initial layers of bodywork. It's been put through the ringer and keeps performing! Just remember to add a couple of drops of oil before each use and it will serve you well.

This thing is a beast. I typically run entry doors through a wide belt sander to clean them up, but i recently got a job for a 4 foot wide door... too wide to run through my sander. Opted for this as opposed to using our 5” orbital sanders to sand it all. It saved us hours of labor for only 130 bucks. Make sure you have sufficient air. This thing had my 120 gallon 15hp compressor cycling every two minutes or so with constant use. I might consider getting a thicker hose or putting a reserve tank near the regulator that this uses as i don’t think quite enough air is getting to it after passing through my piping and 50 foot air hose. If you have a smaller contractors compressor don’t bother. Over all great product. We’ll see how it holds up over time.

Been working fantastic for about 6 months now of daily use.

Please realize that this is NOT a National Detroit hog. Read the specifications and you will see that the RPM and air requirements are not the same at all. That being said, I think this is a good little machine. I had an ND for over 20 years and only needed to replace it when someone borrowed it and did not return it. My criticism of this would be the high air requirement (even with a big 5 HP and 60G industrial). It won't really spin much under 90 psi. It will do a nice job however and I do like it. Great deal for the cost. Update, 7 years later: Going strong. Oil it DAILY when using! Have gotten to know it well and still think it is a good tool, especially for the price! TWELVE YEARS LATER. Still going..... Going to add another star for longevity. Taking it up from 4 to 5 stars.

Excellent product for the money. Well balanced and smooth action. Nice firm pad for quality plastic body filler results.

Covers alot of ground fast- used for autobody fiberglass and filler- one thing to double check make sure your compressor is large enough it uses alot of air

I have been using this type of sander for at least 30 years + and havent had any problems, with the brand I was using, this is my first I-R sander like this, and so far its as good as the other brand, and alot less expensive, which in my books makes it better, no problems so fsr if any should arise I will for sure get back to the ratings, I would not at this time hesitate to buy another one, I have told all my frinds about AMAZON, and the prices. Thanks for being there when we need some help in America. J. W. Jones

Very well built excellent quality you need a lot of air to make it work but if you got the air to do it it's one of the best tools out there I definitely would recommend it for other people
