A Great Time Saver And Professional Tool That Is Very Important In Panel Re-Finishing
By alexanderaku
When working dented automotive metal panels you can never get everything out of and straight again in the metal. That means thin layers of body fillers and/or sandable primer become important for the substrate of any fine finish - if you want it to look great.I had been nursing two old line sanders (a Rodac and another probably 40 years old) along for years, and finally decided it was time for a new one about three years back. Man, what a difference! The Ingersoll Rand IRT315 Heavy Duty Air Twin Piston Straight Line Sander - 2-3/4-Inch x 17-1/2-Inch Pad gave me quick and reliable starts with each squeeze of the handle trigger. I no longer had to "bump start" or work at getting a handle trigger to activate a line sander like the old ones I had been using, and I could immediately see and feel better power with less air use. Using the new Ingersoll Rand IRT315 Heavy Duty Air Twin Piston Straight Line Sander - 2-3/4-Inch x 17-1/2-Inch Pad was like a dream come true, and I tossed both of my antiques in the trash.Yes, you really need a line sander if you want your panel repairs in refinishing to be truly hidden under a perfect finish of new paint. My first use of the new Ingersoll Rand was in repairing a roof section on an old 1st generation Camaro that a large tree limb had hit. After the metal work came the layers of needed fill - and the new Ingersoll Rand IRT315 Heavy Duty Air Twin Piston Straight Line Sander - 2-3/4-Inch x 17-1/2-Inch Pad made much welcome shorter work of the leveling than I expected! I was done in a third of my usual time by simply using the new sander!A drop or two of air tool oil before and after use of this tool is all you need - you don't want to over oil it. There is a Phillips screw clearly labeled on the left side of the tool for oiling - simple. Cleanup is really no more than a blast of compressed air to the housing.The tool weight is just over 6 lbs., and I use a the Legacy Manufacturing HFZ3806YW2B 6' Zilla Whip Hose to help keep the tool use easier for less fatigue to me. It takes standard paper for the 2 3/4in. x 17 1/2in.. pad. The retainers for the abrasive paper are strong and hold very well. They are also easily operated. This tool also works well with either agressive or finer grit abrasive paper.Air consumption is rated 8-9 CFM, at the recomended air pressure setting of 90 PSI. This is a professional tool that requires a 5 Hp or better air compressor for best usage. I really don't recommend trying to use it with a smaller compressor, as it will easily exceed the duty cycle of smaller air compressors in normal use of the tool. I have plenty of air for this tool as I have an industrial duty 7.5 HP 80 Gallon 1PH Horizontal 2 Stage Stationary Air Compressor in my garage.After three years, how does my IRT315 line sander look and feel? It still looks new and it performs just as well as the first time I hooked the air to it and squeezed the trigger.Note:If you like this tool, you will also find this tool a great easy to work with timesaver as well - National Detroit Orbital Action Sander - NDT400.

This Ingersoll Rand sander is a professional quality tool and came at a very low price. A tough combination to beat. It is easy to use, durable and looks good too.

Ingersoll Rand 315 Heavy Duty Air Twin Piston Straight Line Sander - 2-3/4-Inch x 17-1/2-Inch Pad
By Citroen
Bought this sander about 6 months ago to work on a car restoration project. I've used the unit for about 15-20 hours now to smooth light applications of body filler, and have been very happy with it. It is comfortable to use, and has worked flawlessly. I have a 7 hp compressor that only runs minimally while using the unit. I'd recommend this unit for anyone who has similar work to do.
