The KANG BTM-500 Pedestal Disc 50 cm Variable Speed Sander is a professional-grade pedestal disc sander featuring a 500 mm sanding disc with variable speeds from 500 to 1500 RPM for efficient material removal and finishing on wood, metal, or composites. The disc sander includes a robust cast-iron table (305 x 636 mm) that tilts 0–45°, with X- and Y-mitre slots for precise workholding, a bidirectional mitre gauge, an electric motor brake for quick stops, a 100 mm dust port for easy integration into dust extraction systems, and a built-in storage cabinet for accessories. Powered by a 1.5 kW, 240V single-phase motor, it measures 700 mm W x 680 mm D x 1230 mm H and weighs approximately 135 kg, making it a stable, floor-standing unit ideal for workshops. This sander reduces sanding time significantly compared to manual methods while delivering consistent, professional results.
