Rupes Pneumatic Skorpio ||| 150Mm Random 3Mm Orbital
3mm Orbit for Final Finishing:
The 3mm orbit is designed for finishing applications that use grade P320 and higher abrasives. The small orbit, combined with the high rpm and quality abrasives, delivers a high quality finish that is perfectly prepared for paints and other coatings.
Other orbit versions available.
Equipped with a connection to a RUPES external dust extraction system.
The Skorpio III features:
New Heavy Duty Motor
The new high performance motor built in sintered steel is designed to provide the best power to weight ratio with a lower air consumption. Designed to minimize tool noise and to low vibration level, the new motor reduces internal friction for a higher power transfer ratio, simplified maintenance and longer tool life.
Double Row Ball Bearings
A new double-row ball bearing system, designed specifically by the RUPES Research and Development team, results in longer bearing life, greater motor stability and lower vibration levels.
Anti Spinning System
The presence of the rubber shroud prevents the tool from operating in free rotation mode. This eliminates the risk of damage to the work surface from a true rotary motion. Further, the shroud allows for more efficient dust extraction by sealing the area between the tool’s housing and the backing pad. (Not available on “NO VACUUM” models).
Extremely Well Balanced
RUPES Research and Development team dedicated significant time and effort to create a tool whose internal components are perfectly balanced. The result is a tool that is very low in vibration, and ideal for high time-exposure operations.
Interchangeable Backing Pad
The internal components of the Skorpio III are so well balanced that operators can actually change the size of the backing pad without compromising the low vibration level of the tool. It is now possible to choose the backing pad diameter that you need Ø125mm or Ø150mm, without changing tools!
Central Vacuum Models
Wyatt Machine Tools sell models RH353A, RH356A and RH359A configured for external dust extraction systems.
NEW Multi-hole Backing Pads
The multihole pattern combined to the 10 channels obtained on the side of the backing pad provides an impressive air flow that increases the dust extraction during the sanding on both horizontal and vertical surfaces. This guarantees a better cleaning of the working area and therefore a better working conditions. Two of the side channels are connected directly to the central hole with the function to dissipate the heat during the backing pad rotation. This new model of backing pad has been designed to obtain a low center of gravity which ensures a better control and precision during all phases of the sanding process.
