Experience the Excellence

The Skorpio III is what every random orbital sander operator needs an extremely quiet tool that has tremendous power and low vibration!

The newly designed pneumatic Skorpio III is the quietest random orbital sander in its class. The body is coated with anti-slip rubber for better handling. The throttle lever is designed to support the operator's wrist during operation and actually fits perfectly into the tool body to eliminate "pinch points". The internal balancing of the components results in extremely low vibration and the double row bearings insure greater life and smoother operation.

Made in Italy, the latest generation of air Palm sanders are quiet, powerful, efficient, smooth and affordable tools that set the standard for all to follow.

6mm Orbit: Suitable for General Use

Following several years of on-site research, RUPES Research and Development Department found that a 6mm orbit is ideal for creating the best combination of material removal/ surface finish. The 6mm orbit is 20% more time efficient than the traditional 5mm orbit and, when used with the suggested abrasive grades between P120 and P320, generates the same high quality finish.

New Heavy Duty Motor

The new high performance motor built in sintered steel, is designed to provide the best power to weight ratio with a lower air consumption. Designed to minimize tool noise and to low vibration level, the new motor reduces internal friction for a higher power transfer ratio, simplified maintenance and longer tool life.

Double Row Ball Bearings

A new double row- ball bearing system, designed specifically by the RUPES Research and Development team, results in longer bearing life, greater motor stability and lower vibration levels.

Anti Spinning System

The presence of the rubber shroud prevents the tool from operating in free rotation mode. This eliminates the risk of damage to the work surface from a true rotary motion. Further, the shroud allows for more efficient dust extraction by sealing the area between the tools housing and the backing pad.

New Ergonomic Lever with Rubber Insert

The new throttle lever design, exclusive to RUPES, slides the throttle lever fulcrum forward when the lever itself is depressed. This action lifts the back end of the throttle lever and places it in a neutral position creating a stable and ergonomic support for the operator’s hand. Improved handling and reduced vibration are results of the new design.

Extremely Well Balanced

RUPES Research and Development team dedicated significant time and effort to create a tool whose internal components are perfectly balanced. The result is a tool that is very low in vibration, and ideal for high time-exposure operations.

Interchangeable Backing Pad

The internal components of the Skorpio III are so well balanced that operators can actually change the size of the backing pad without compromising the low vibration level of the tool. It is now possible to choose the backing pad diameter that you need Ø 125 mm or Ø 150 mm, without changing tools!
