Built for broad circular-pad sanding, paint preparation, and pre-polishing work, the Chicago Pneumatic CP5510-60SV pneumatic random orbital sander combines a 10,000 RPM free speed with a 0.5 hp / 375 W motor to keep abrasive motion consistent across panels, coated surfaces, fabricated parts, and repair areas. Its 6" / 150 mm PSA circular pad uses pressure-sensitive adhesive discs for secure abrasive contact during repeated sanding passes.
This self-vacuum CP55 Series model helps draw sanding dust away from the work surface when used with compatible dust collection components and abrasives, reducing loose debris around the sanding area without requiring a central vacuum line. Manufacturer data for SKU 6151700870 lists a 5/16" / 8 mm orbit, giving the tool a balanced random orbital pattern for primer sanding, coating removal, filler smoothing, and surface refinement before finishing.

Features:
- 0.5 hp / 375 W pneumatic motor supports sanding, finishing, and pre-polishing work across prepared surfaces.
- 10,000 RPM free speed keeps the abrasive moving quickly for coating prep, primer sanding, and surface refinement.
- 6" / 150 mm circular PSA pad provides broad abrasive contact and secure disc attachment during repeated sanding passes.
- 5/16" / 8 mm orbit provides a balanced sanding pattern for surface preparation, filler smoothing, and finish refinement.
- Self-vacuum configuration helps move sanding dust away from the work surface when paired with compatible collection components.
- Ergonomic palm-shaped soft grip helps improve control during longer sanding sessions and broad-panel work.
- 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.
Applications:
- Autobody repair and refinishing: Sanding larger panels, primer, filler, and blend areas before paint, clearcoat, or polishing steps.
- Paint and coating preparation: Preparing painted, primed, and coated surfaces where a 6" PSA pad provides broad contact.
- Metal fabrication: Blending surface marks, smoothing fabricated parts, and preparing components before coating or final finishing.
- Industrial maintenance and MRO: Cleaning up equipment panels, guards, covers, housings, and repair areas during refurbishment.
- Production sanding stations: Repeated sanding work where self-vacuum dust handling helps improve visibility and reduce loose debris.
- Workshop and garage use: General surface sanding on compatible materials when paired with PSA abrasive discs and a compressor sized for the tools airflow demand.
FAQs:
- Q: What abrasive discs fit the CP5510-60SV?
A: This model uses 6" / 150 mm PSA abrasive discs. PSA stands for pressure-sensitive adhesive, meaning the disc sticks directly to the pad instead of attaching with a hook & loop backing. - Q: What does self-vacuum mean on this sander?
A: Self-vacuum means the tool is configured to help pull sanding dust away from the work surface without requiring a central vacuum line. Use compatible dust collection components and abrasives so the collection path can work properly. - Q: Can hook & loop abrasive discs be used on this model?
A: No. This version is specified with a PSA pad, so use compatible adhesive-backed 6" abrasive discs unless the pad has been changed to a manufacturer-approved alternate pad. - Q: What does the orbit size affect?
A: Orbit diameter is the size of the pads random sanding motion. The listed 5/16" / 8 mm orbit gives a balanced pattern for surface preparation, primer sanding, and finish refinement. - Q: What air supply does the CP5510-60SV require?
A: The tool is rated for 90 PSI / 6.3 bar and uses 23 CFM / 11 l/s at load. Use at least a 0.31" / 8 mm air hose and confirm the compressor can maintain airflow during continuous sanding.
