Description
The Hutchins 3-2/3" x 7" PSA/Clip 3/32" Offset Water Sander (7044) is a professional-grade orbital water sander meticulously engineered for high-performance wet sanding. This tool excels in demanding environments such as marine, industrial, and automotive applications, particularly for precise clear coat finishing and efficient material preparation. Built by Hutchins Manufacturing Company, a reputable US-based producer of quality sanding equipment, the Model 7044 embodies reliability and superior finishing capabilities. Its design focuses on delivering a consistent, smooth surface finish while ensuring the longevity of the tool through advanced moisture protection.
KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:
- Efficient Orbital Action: The sander's 3/32" offset orbital motion ensures rapid material removal while simultaneously producing a smooth, high-quality finish. This makes it ideal for critical pre-paint, post-paint, and intricate wet sanding operations.
- Integrated Wet Sanding System: Equipped with a 20-foot high-pressure water hose, the 7044 allows for seamless wet sanding. The hose utilizes a filtered, venturi-generated flow, eliminating the need for complex water connections; simply place the hose into a water container. This system effectively cools the sanding surface, lubricates the abrasive, and flushes away sanding dust, preventing clogging and ensuring a consistent cut.
- Optimized Power Delivery: A high-performance motor features a balanced rotor and two-piece self-expanding vanes. This design provides consistent torque and power delivery, maintaining optimal sanding efficiency even under load.
- Enhanced Tool Durability: A unique bypass system is integrated to safeguard all internal motor components from moisture ingress. This critical feature significantly extends the operational lifespan of the sander, reducing maintenance needs and ensuring long-term productivity in wet environments.
- Versatile Pad Compatibility: The sander supports both 3 2/3" x 7" Velcro-backed and 3 2/3" x 9" clip-on abrasive papers, offering flexibility for various sanding tasks and material types. It comes with a medium-density pad for initial sanding and an interface pad specifically designed for fine finishing and the meticulous removal of defects in clear coats.

HOW TO USE:
- Connect Air Supply: Attach an air hose from your compressor to the sander's air inlet. Ensure your air compressor can provide at least 90 PSI and 10.4 CFM for optimal performance.
- Prepare Water Source: Place the end of the included 20-foot high-pressure water hose into a clean water container. The sander's internal system will draw water as needed.
- Attach Sanding Pad: Select the appropriate sanding pad (general purpose or interface) and securely attach it to the sander's base.
- Apply Abrasive Paper: Secure the desired 3 2/3" x 7" Velcro or 3 2/3" x 9" clip-on abrasive paper to the chosen pad.
- Begin Sanding: With the water hose in the water source and air supply connected, depress the trigger to start the sander. Maintain consistent, even pressure as you move the sander across the surface in overlapping patterns. The water flow will automatically begin, cooling the surface and clearing debris.
- Monitor Results: Periodically lift the sander to inspect your progress and ensure an even finish.
- Clean Up: After use, turn off the air supply, remove the water hose from the container, and gently clean any remaining debris from the pads and sander body.
