The15mm orbit of the LHR 15ES, shorter than that of its big brother, the LHR 21ES, is coupled with a higher rpm level than that of the LHR 21ES. This higher speed gives the LHR 15ES equivalent cutting power to the LHR 21ES, in spite of the smaller orbit. Its 130\/150 mm BigFoot polishing foam pads, perfect balance, and vibration-free operation make the LHR 15ES a real gem and a must for the tool kit of every detailer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRANDOM ORBITAL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe backing plate follows an orbit (the amplitude of which depends on the distance between the rotation axis of the drive shaft and the central axis of the backing plate) and is free to rotate about its own central axis. The backing plate is free to rotate at varying velocities and directions by effect of the centrifugal force of the offset movement and by effect of friction. Should the friction forces be such as to prevent rotation of the disc while the tool is still operating, the random orbital movement would simply become an orbital movement. The number of disc rotations is variable and independent of the number of orbits performed. The random orbital movement is at present the best compromise in terms of effectiveness and surface treatment quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELEGANTLY DESIGNED\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe RUPES R  D and Design departments have paid particular attention to the design and ergonomics of the BigFoot polishers.

This motion is designed to provide an effective approach to polishing and surface treatment. Compared with the larger-orbit LHR21ES, the LHR15ES uses a shorter 15 mm orbit and a higher RPM level, delivering equivalent cutting power to the LHR21ES according to the manufacturer while remaining particularly suitable for curved surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKEY FEATURES:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e15 mm random orbital movement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports controlled polishing on curved surfaces and varied body contours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e125 mm, 5-inch backing pad:\u003c\/strong\u003e Provides compatibility with the specified RUPES backing-pad configuration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e130\/150 mm BigFoot polishing foam pads:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for use with the RUPES BigFoot polishing system.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElectronic speed control:\u003c\/strong\u003e Allows the operator to regulate polishing speed during use without interrupting the operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti-spinning shroud:\u003c\/strong\u003e Protects the operator from moving parts and acts as a clutch for the backing pad when it is not in direct contact with the surface.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOn-off switch lock:\u003c\/strong\u003e Helps keep the tool operating while the operator changes hand positions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePRODUCT DETAILS:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e RUPES\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e LHR15ES\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart number:\u003c\/strong\u003e LHR15ES\/US\/STD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Random orbital polisher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBacking pad:\u003c\/strong\u003e 125 mm, approximately 5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrbit:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tool only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe balanced body, practical handgrip, silent operation, and minimum vibration are designed to support operator comfort during polishing work.
