Corded Sanders & Polishers

We sell a range of sanders for every job, including:

• Orbital sanders: which feature a square or rectangular base, and are ideal for sanding edges or working into corners.
• Random orbital sanders: which feature a circular pad with a sanding action working on varying elliptical orbits for swirl free finishes.
• Eccentric geared sanders: which also have a circular pad but feature a special sanding mode for very fast stock removal.
• Belt sanders: which sand in a linear motion and offer aggressive sanding for harsher surfaces.
• Detail sanders: which are ideal for tight spaces, difficult shapes and long reaching areas.
• Dry lining sanders: which feature a large circular pad, and are specifically designed for sanding joints on plasterboard – dust free.

We also stock a wide range of electric polishers to remove scratches and defects from paint and achieve high gloss finishes on solid surfaces and composites. Most electric polishers operate using a plain rotary action which, in the hands of a skilled bodywork technician or detailer can achieve perfect results. However, they can cause significant damage to paint if used incorrectly. Less experienced users or DIY enthusiasts may find a dual action or eccentric geared type polisher easier to use, as they reduce the risk of cutting through the paint whilst still achieving an excellent finish.

If you’re concerned about the power of going cordless, don’t be. Our product range features powerful battery packs and, with a range of voltages, from 12v to 18v, there’s no difference in performance when compared to a corded piece of equipment. At Protrade, we sell tools from some of the industry’s most recognised and trusted brands like Milwaukee, Festool, Metabo Mafell, Makita and Mirka, so you can trust that you’re buying quality equipment. If you’re looking for a more cost-effective solution, we also provide a finance service, so you can spread the cost of your purchase over 3-12 months.
