Composite Repair Tool Kits

In addition to our 'Step Sanding Tool Kits' we also provide a range of traditional air tools used for the repair of composite parts.

All the kits are supplied with a selection of abrasives that are suited to a range of composite materials.

The extracted tools are very effective at dust capture at source to make for a cleaner, safer working environment.


DMP0132
50mm / 2” Disc Sander Kit

A versatile disc sander that has variable speed and can be used for quick and aggresive composite material removal through to blending and surface finishing.

The 3M Roloc silica carbide abrasive discs allow agressive material removal from edges and surfaces.  The 3M Roloc surface conditioning discs allow for blending and surface finishing depending on the grade used.


Ideal for dust free sanding of vertical, sloped and horizontal surfaces and edges and is suitable for production and on-site sanding activities and repair activities.

The 50mm/2" disc combined with the 75mm/3" vacuum shroud provides dust free sanding operations with d
ust capture at source when combined with our portable dust extractors.  The vacuum shroud supplied can be trimmed back to suit the parts being worked.


  • Coarse to fine material removal from edges and surfaces over a range of materials
  • 298W / 0.4hp air motor with gearless system to extend life and minimise servicing
  • Variable speed up to 25,000 rpm
  • Lever control with safety lock
  • Easy to control right angle drive
  • Supported vacuum swivel joint providing freedom of movement
  • Swivel airline joint and male hi-flow airline connector
  • 2” and 3” vacuum shrouds for optimum dust capture
  • Trimmable 3" vacuum shroud
  • Selection of 3M Roloc abrasive discs and surface conditioning discs suitable for use with composites
