The Value Air air sander is a device used to smooth objects-it is powered by an air compressor. There are many types of air sander designs, from random orbital sanders to handheld devices that can be used for fine detail work. For large and flat areas, long plate air sanders usually work best and provide a flat and smooth surface. The most common type of air sander is a small square model, which can use a quarter of the sandpaper.
Compared with electric sander, the advantage of air sander is that the Value Air air sander will not overheat. Electric sanders can become very hot for a long time and need to rest for a while. The air sander will stay cool even if it is used for a long period of time, which is required for many sanding operations. A side benefit of an air sander is that the air discharged from the sander motor will help remove sanding residue on the work surface.
One of the most critical components of any pneumatic tool is the actual air compressor. The compressor should have a large tank to maintain a large air reserve. The compressor motor should also be large enough to keep up with the demand for pneumatic tools. This is important to ensure that the sander does not lack air, thereby slowing down the progress of the tool.
After selecting the Value Air sander and compressor, the next question will be the actual air line or hose connecting the compressor to the tool. It is important to use a large enough air line to provide sufficient airflow for the sander. An air pipe with a too small diameter will block the air flow to the sander. When purchasing pneumatic tools, individuals should make sure to read all manufacturer's instructions on compressor and air hose requirements.
