The BOSCH GEX18V-5N 18V Brushless 5 In. Random Orbit Sander (Bare Tool) is the cordless workhorse for pros and serious DIYers who want serious stock removal without being tethered to a wall outlet. This tool ships as a bare tool, so you supply your own battery and keep the setup lean.

Key Features & Design
