The 382 Porter Cable orbital sander is a modern feat of engineering and provides a quality level that is arguably greater than any other orbital sander on the market. The design of the portal cable orbital sander may not look as impressive or visually appealing as some of its competitors, however the quality is clear to see. The 382 model orbital sander boasts a 100% ball bearing construction as well as a dust-sealed power switch making it extremely durable and likely to last a very long time regardless of how much use it gets. For this reason we rated the 382 as the best quality orbital sander for 2017.
Smooth finishes every time
This random orbital sander from Porter-Cable features an automatically controlled variable speed system that will provide slow speed up when you start sanding as well as variable slow-down as you pull away from the sanding surface. This automatic control of the sanding speed ensures that you are left with a smooth surface that is free from gauges whilst also ensuring that you have maximum power and spin speed whilst sanding is in progress.
Vibration free sanding
This orbit sander also has a built in dual-plane counter-balanced fan that helps to reduce the amount of vibration that comes from the device whilst sanding is in progress. This reduction in vibration is definitely noticeable when compared to other orbit sanders and it makes the sanding experience far more pleasant whilst also reducing user fatigue.
