Bosch GEX 125-1 AE Professional 0601387500

German approach to "orbitals"

Bosch GEX 125-1 AE is a tool for finishing and grinding relatively small surfaces. The grinder has a sensitive speed control that allows you to fine-tune the mode of operation in accordance with the characteristics of the material being processed. The power of 250 W may not seem too serious to some, but in fact it is enough for all tasks that are performed using 125 mm orbital machines. But note that productivity and work efficiency directly depend on the quality of grinding and polishing wheels. Therefore, it is worth using only high-quality abrasive materials.

Silence and cleanliness in the workplace

The device vibrates slightly and does not heat up too much even under load. The machine is quite light (1.3 kg) and quiet. Thanks to ergonomic rubberized handles and thoughtful balancing, the hand that holds the tool does not get tired during operation. The long power cable (almost 4 m) allows you to move freely from one treated area to another. Problems arise only with the disc rotation brake, which quickly fails for many users.

The quality of dust collection is commendable. More than 75% of sanding products end up in a plastic dust container with a pleated microfilter. And by connecting an industrial vacuum cleaner, you can achieve almost complete dust removal.

Machine for professionals and experienced hobbyists

Bosch random orbit sanders are perfect for professional use or intensive use in the home workshop. In particular, Bosch GEX 125-1 AE will be a good buy if you plan to be engaged in the manufacture and restoration of furniture, small carpentry or not very intensive construction. But builders who are looking for a reliable orbital machine for stripping and grinding large surfaces, such as floors and walls, are better off buying a more powerful device — for example, the Bosch GEX 125-150 AVE Professional 060137B102 model with a 400 W motor.
