Compact, lightweight and packed with features, MIRKA’s all new hand-held sanding machine, the DEROS, makes ‘electric’ the smart choice.
MIRKA’s latest machine, the DEROS (Direct Electric Random Orbital Sander), is the first ever electric sanding machine with a brushless motor and no external power supply. It is also the lightest and most compact electric machine on the market according to MIRKA, and It simply plugs into an ordinary power outlet.
Its performance is comparable to a conventional 500W electric machine and that gives it the ability to maintain a constant speed, even under heavy load. The innovative design of the brushless motor means there are few wearing components (there are no carbon brushes which need replacement) so it is low maintenance, ultra-reliable and has a long lifespan. In contrast to conventional electric machines, the MIRKA DEROS also features a ‘closed construction’ which prevents dust from entering the motor where it can cause wear and damage.
The DEROS has a soft start function, a built in electronic motor brake and a smooth, easy to operate lever to control motor speed. Excellent ergonomic design was also a top priority to ensure this sander be used comfortably for long periods without fatigue. The unique symmetrical design makes it just as comfortable whether using it left or right handed and the longer body provides the option of a two-hand grip.
And, at only 96mm high and 1kg in weight, the MIRKA DEROS is around half the size and weight of conventional electric sanders.
