Rupes Skorpio RH353A | Orbital Sander (AIR)

The Skorpio RH353A is built for precision and comfort, not compromise. It’s an air sander that runs smooth, finishes clean, and holds up under serious use.

The Rupes Skorpio RH353A is a central vacuum, 6-inch air sander designed with one goal in mind: precision finishing. Running a tight 3mm orbit, it’s perfect for fine surface work. Think high-end refinishing, panel prep, or dialling in primer before paint. Anywhere you want control and consistency, this machine delivers.

Under the hood is Rupes’ newest heavy-duty motor. It’s powerful, refined, and doesn’t demand massive airflow to get the job done. Every bit of that power is transferred cleanly to the surface thanks to an internal layout built around balance. You’ll feel it immediately with low noise, near-zero vibration, and a level of smoothness that lets you push the job, not the tool.

Ergonomics are dialled in. The rubber-coated body keeps grip without bulk, and the throttle lever runs wide and flush. It supports your wrist naturally, avoids pitch points entirely, and becomes second nature during longer sessions. Add to that a built-in anti-spin system, double row bearings, and central vacuum compatibility, and you’ve got a serious orbital sander that feels just as good at the end of the day as it does at the start.
