Chicago Pneumatic Random Orbital Sander | CP5306-60HA | 12000 RPM | 6" Hook & Loop Pad | 3/16" Orbit

Built for broad circular-pad sanding, surface preparation, and finish-prep work, the Chicago Pneumatic CP5306-60HA pneumatic random orbital sander delivers a fast 12,000 RPM free speed with a 0.3 hp / 210 W motor for controlled abrasive motion across panels, primed surfaces, fabricated parts, and repair areas. Manufacturer product data identifies this model as a 6" / 150 mm PSA pad sander, using pressure-sensitive adhesive abrasive discs for secure abrasive attachment during repeated sanding passes.

The 3/16" / 5 mm orbit provides a balanced random orbital sanding pattern for primer sanding, coating preparation, filler smoothing, and surface refinement before paint or polishing. This non-vacuum CP53 Series model is suited to work areas that already use booth ventilation, separate dust extraction, or manual cleanup procedures rather than tool-integrated dust collection. Its longer body layout provides additional handling area compared with compact palm-only versions, helping the operator guide the sander during broad-panel sanding and multi-step finishing work.

Features:

• 0.3 hp / 210 W pneumatic motor supports sanding, finishing, and pre-polishing work on prepared surfaces.
• 12,000 RPM free speed keeps the abrasive moving quickly for coating preparation, primer sanding, and surface refinement.
• 6" / 150 mm circular PSA pad provides broad abrasive contact with secure adhesive-backed disc retention.
• 3/16" / 5 mm orbit creates a balanced sanding pattern for light material removal, filler smoothing, and finish preparation.
• Non-vacuum configuration fits shops using separate dust collection, booth ventilation, or manual cleanup procedures.
• Longer body format gives the operator additional handling area for broad-panel sanding and repeated finishing passes.
• Integrated motor silencer helps reduce operating noise in body shop, repair, and production environments.
• Lubrication-free motor helps reduce oil carryover concerns around paint preparation, sanding, and finishing work.
• Listed 2000 operating hours with low maintenance supports regular use in sanding and surface preparation workflows.

Applications:

• Autobody repair and refinishing: Sanding larger panels, primer, filler, and blend areas before paint, clearcoat, or polishing steps.
• Paint and coating preparation: Preparing primed, painted, or coated surfaces where a 6" PSA pad provides broad abrasive coverage.
• Metal fabrication: Blending surface marks, smoothing fabricated parts, and preparing components before coating or final finishing.
• Industrial maintenance and MRO: Cleaning up equipment covers, guards, housings, panels, and repair patches during refurbishment work.
• Vehicle service and restoration: Refinishing body sections, curved panels, and repair surfaces where a longer-body air sander provides additional handling control.
• Workshop and garage use: General surface sanding on compatible materials when paired with 6" PSA abrasive discs and a compressor sized for the tool's airflow demand.

FAQs:

• Q: What abrasive discs fit the CP5306-60HA?
  A: Manufacturer product data identifies this model for 6" / 150 mm PSA abrasive discs. PSA stands for pressure-sensitive adhesive, meaning the abrasive sticks directly to the pad rather than attaching with hook & loop backing.
• Q: What does non-vacuum mean on this sander?
  A: Non-vacuum means the tool does not include self-vacuum or central-vacuum dust extraction. Use separate dust collection, booth ventilation, or cleanup procedures appropriate for the material being sanded.
• Q: What does the 3/16" orbit do?
  A: Orbit diameter is the size of the pad's random sanding motion. A 3/16" / 5 mm orbit provides a balanced pattern for primer sanding, coating preparation, filler smoothing, and finish refinement without being as aggressive as larger-orbit tools.
• Q: Can hook & loop abrasive discs be used on this model?
  A: Manufacturer product data lists this model for PSA pads. Use compatible 6" PSA abrasive discs unless the pad has been changed to a manufacturer-approved alternate pad.
• Q: What air supply does the CP5306-60HA require?
  A: The tool is rated for 90 PSI / 6.3 bar and uses 17 CFM / 8 l/s at load. Use at least a 1/4" / 6 mm air hose and confirm the compressor can maintain airflow during continuous sanding.
