Product Specification
RIGHT ANGLE PNEUMATIC QUICK CHANGE SANDER
The Benchmark Abrasives Right Angle Pneumatic Quick Change Sander is built for fast material removal, rapid abrasive changes, and better control in the tight areas where larger sanders become difficult to maneuver. Its compact 90° head gives you excellent visibility and access around welds, edges, corners, contours, and fabricated assemblies, while the Type R quick-change system lets you move from one abrasive to the next in seconds and keep the job moving.
Running at up to 15,000 RPM, this air-powered sander delivers the aggressive performance needed to remove rust, paint, weld scale, and surface imperfections while still giving you the control required for blending, feathering, and detailed surface preparation. A textured comfort grip helps reduce fatigue during extended sanding tasks, while the precision-balanced internal mechanism delivers smooth, consistent performance for better control on the workpiece.
Pair it with Benchmark Abrasives 2" or 3" Type R Quick Change Discs and you have a versatile surface-preparation system for automotive work, metal fabrication, maintenance, repair, and general shop use. Run aluminum oxide for general-purpose sanding, step up to zirconia or ceramic for heavier grinding, switch to surface conditioning for blending and finishing, or use stripping discs when coatings and corrosion need to come off fast.

Applications & Performance
The compact right-angle design is made for jobs where a conventional grinder or larger sander is simply too bulky. It keeps the abrasive close to the work and gives the operator excellent control around detailed surfaces, weldments, panels, and fabricated parts.
Ideal Applications:
- Automotive body repair and paint preparation
- Weld blending and cleanup
- Rust and oxidation removal
- Paint and coating removal
- Weld scale removal
- Panel blending and feathering
- Deburring and edge cleanup
- Metal fabrication finishing
- Surface preparation before welding or coating
- Tight spots, corners, contours, and detailed work
Built for Benchmark Abrasives Quick Change Discs
This sander is designed around the Type R quick-change system, allowing you to rapidly change abrasives as the job moves from grinding to blending, cleaning, stripping, or finishing.
Choose Type R products in the matching 2" or 3" size, with both disc and holder rated for at least 15,000 RPM. Suitable categories include:
-
Aluminum Oxide Quick Change Discs – General-purpose sanding, grinding, and surface preparation
-
Zirconia Quick Change Discs – Aggressive grinding and extended life on metal
-
Ceramic Quick Change Discs – High-performance stock removal and demanding grinding applications
-
Surface Conditioning Discs – Blending, cleaning, finishing, and surface preparation
-
Stripping Discs – Removing paint, coatings, rust, and surface contamination
-
Mini Flap Discs – Grinding and blending with a flap-disc style cutting action
Instead of reaching for a different tool every time the application changes, simply change the quick-change abrasive and keep working.
2" or 3" — Choose the Size for the Job
3" Quick Change Discs
Use the larger disc when you want more coverage for weld blending, panel work, surface cleaning, and open-area grinding.
2" Quick Change Discs
Switch to a compatible 2" Type R holder when you need more precision and access around tight corners, narrow areas, contours, and detailed fabrication.
Why Choose This Quick Change Sander?
Fast abrasive changes – The Type R system lets you change discs quickly so you spend more time working and less time changing accessories.
Aggressive 15,000 RPM performance – Provides the speed needed for productive grinding, coating removal, blending, and surface preparation.
Better access and visibility – The right-angle head helps you work around edges, corners, welds, contours, and confined assemblies.
More comfortable during extended use – The textured grip helps reduce fatigue and gives you better control during longer sanding jobs.
Smooth, consistent operation – The precision-balanced internal mechanism helps the tool run smoothly and predictably against the workpiece.
2" and 3" versatility – Choose broader coverage with 3" discs or tighter control with a compatible 2" setup.
One tool, multiple operations – Move from aggressive stock removal to stripping, blending, cleaning, and finishing simply by changing the Benchmark quick-change consumable.
Accessory Compatibility
Use Type R quick-change discs with a properly matched holder.
- Standard disc diameter: 3"
- Optional disc diameter: 2" with a compatible holder
- Disc and holder ratings must meet or exceed 15,000 RPM
- Confirm the holder is securely and correctly mounted before operation
- Match the abrasive type and grit to the material and application
- Do not assume compatibility based on diameter alone; confirm the Type R connection, holder, mounting, and operating-speed requirements
Safety Tips
- Do not exceed 90 PSI maximum operating air pressure.
- Always wear proper eye, face, hearing, hand, and respiratory protection.
- Use only Type R discs and holders suitable for the tool and application.
- Confirm the disc and holder are rated for at least 15,000 RPM.
- Inspect the tool, holder, and abrasive before every use.
- Make sure the quick-change disc is fully secured before starting the tool.
- Never use damaged, torn, cracked, or excessively worn abrasives.
- Allow the tool to reach operating speed before contacting the workpiece.
- Maintain a secure grip and stable working position.
- Disconnect the air supply before changing abrasives, holders, or servicing the tool.
- Repetitive work and prolonged vibration exposure can contribute to hand, wrist, or arm fatigue.
- Use dry only.
