Product Highlights

This 18V random orbit sander features a well-balanced ergonomic palm grip, which allows your hand to be closest to the work material to avoid tilting and pressing down, for best results. The easy-to-reach on/off switch offers intuitive operation. It has a vibration dampening element to help minimize user fatigue. The Bosch GEX18V-5 Brushless 5 In. Random Orbit Sander has a powerful 18V brushless motor, which delivers similar stock removal to a corded sander. The speed selector delivers best results in different materials and applications.
