Chicago Pneumatic Random Orbital Sander | CP5510-60H | 10000 RPM | 6" Hook & Loop Pad | 3/8" Orbit

Built for broad surface preparation, sanding, and pre-polishing work, the Chicago Pneumatic CP5510-60H pneumatic random orbital sander combines a 10,000 RPM free speed with a 0.5 hp / 375 W motor for steady abrasive motion across panels, fabricated parts, coatings, and repair surfaces. Its 6" / 150 mm hook & loop circular pad gives technicians wider surface coverage than smaller 4.4" or 5" pad models, while still allowing fast abrasive disc changes during multi-step sanding processes.

The manufacturer data for SKU 6151700780 lists a 5/16" / 8 mm orbit, which delivers a balanced random orbital action for coating removal, primer sanding, finish preparation, and pre-polishing. This non-vacuum CP55 Series model is suited to work areas that already use separate dust extraction, booth ventilation, or cleanup procedures. The handle-equipped layout gives added reach and control when working across larger panels, long sanding passes, and broad flat surfaces.

Features:

• 0.5 hp / 375 W pneumatic motor supports sanding, finishing, and pre-polishing work on prepared surfaces.
• 10,000 RPM free speed provides fast abrasive movement for coating prep, surface refinement, and light material removal.
• 6" / 150 mm circular hook & loop pad provides broad surface coverage and quick abrasive disc changes.
• 5/16" / 8 mm orbit delivers a balanced sanding pattern for primer sanding, coating removal, and finish preparation.
• Non-vacuum configuration works well in shops using separate dust collection, booth extraction, or manual cleanup procedures.
• Handle-equipped body gives added reach and control when sanding larger panels, flat sections, and extended work areas.
• Integrated motor silencer helps reduce operating noise in body shop, repair, and production environments.
• Safety lever starting system helps reduce accidental activation while positioning the tool or changing abrasive discs.

Applications:

• Autobody repair and refinishing: Sanding larger panels, primer, filler, and blend areas before paint or clearcoat work.
• Paint and coating preparation: Refining painted, primed, and coated surfaces where a 6" circular pad helps cover more area per pass.
• Metal fabrication: Preparing sheet metal, covers, fabricated parts, and welded assemblies before finishing or coating.
• Industrial maintenance and MRO: Cleaning up equipment panels, housings, guards, and repair surfaces during refurbishment work.
• Workshop and garage use: General sanding on compatible materials when paired with hook & loop abrasives and a compressor sized for the tool’s airflow demand.

FAQs:

• Q: What abrasive discs fit the CP5510-60H?
  A: This model uses 6" / 150 mm circular hook & loop abrasive discs. PSA adhesive-backed discs are not the correct attachment style for this pad.
• 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 based on the material being sanded.
• Q: What is the benefit of the 6" pad size?
  A: A 6" pad covers more surface area per pass than smaller circular pads, which helps on larger panels and broad flat surfaces. Smaller pad models may be easier to control on tight contours or spot repairs.
• Q: Is the CP5510-60H suitable for finish preparation?
  A: Yes. The listed 5/16" / 8 mm orbit gives a balanced random orbital pattern for primer sanding, coating preparation, and surface refinement before finishing steps.
• Q: What air supply does this random orbital sander need?
  A: The CP5510-60H is rated for 90 PSI / 6.3 bar and uses 23 CFM / 11 l/s at load. Use a properly sized air hose and confirm the compressor can maintain airflow during continuous sanding.
