Product Information

Full details

The Bosch Professional GEX 12V-77 is a cordless random orbital sander designed for efficient spot sanding, ideal for professionals working on painted surfaces, automotive finishing, and detailed wood sanding. Its key benefit lies in its compact, ergonomic design and powerful 12V brushless motor, offering excellent results with fatigue-free operation. A potential caveat is that batteries and charger are sold separately, requiring an existing Bosch Professional 12V system. The sander features a 2.5 mm orbit, a 77 mm sanding pad, and an HMI control panel for easy speed adjustment and battery status checks.

Troubleshooting
