172 Series Needle Scalers

The 172 Series Needle Scalers is an air-powered sander built for consistent surface finishing across metal prep, feather edging, and finish work. At 5,500 blows per minute, this lever-operated needle scaler is not only fast, but extremely durable and efficient.

Surface preparation tasks — removing rust, feather-edging body filler, prepping welds — demand tools that deliver consistent material removal without gouging or leaving swirl marks that show through paint or coatings. Compact, lightweight housings let operators reach tight or awkward areas that larger sanders can’t access.

Dual-action and random-orbital pad motions distribute sanding pressure evenly, producing a smooth, swirl-free finish ready for the next step in the paint or coating process, while durable, sealed casings keep grit and debris from shortening the tool’s service life.
