LHR15ES Random Orbital Polisher Bigfoot (Tool Only)
The 15 mm orbit and the RUPES 125 mm backing pad make the random orbital polisher particularly suitable for curved surfaces. The15mm orbit of the LHR 15ES, shorter than that of its big brother, the LHR 21ES, is coupled with a higher rpm level than that of the LHR 21ES. This higher speed gives the LHR 15ES equivalent cutting power to the LHR 21ES, in spite of the smaller orbit. Its 130/150 mm BigFoot polishing foam pads, perfect balance, and vibration-free operation make the LHR 15ES a real gem and a must for the tool kit of every detailer.
RANDOM ORBITAL
The backing plate follows an orbit (the amplitude of which depends on the distance between the rotation axis of the drive shaft and the central axis of the backing plate) and is free to rotate about its own central axis. The backing plate is free to rotate at varying velocities and directions by effect of the centrifugal force of the offset movement and by effect of friction. Should the friction forces be such as to prevent rotation of the disc while the tool is still operating, the random orbital movement would simply become an orbital movement. The number of disc rotations is variable and independent of the number of orbits performed. The random orbital movement is at present the best compromise in terms of effectiveness and surface treatment quality.
ELEGANTLY DESIGNED
The RUPES R D and Design departments have paid particular attention to the design and ergonomics of the BigFoot polishers. The perfectly balanced machine body, the practical handgrip, the silent operation and minimum vibration are just some of the characteristics that help make BigFoot the markets most versatile and sought-after system.
ANTI-SPINNING SHROUD
The dual function antispinning shroud is designed to protect the operator against the moving parts and act as a clutch for the backing pad, preventing further stress on the foam polishing pad when it is not in direct contact with the surface.
ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL MODULE
The speed controller on the handle is both practical and easy to use. The speed of the polisher can also be regulated during use, thus avoiding any interruption of the polishing operation.
ON-OFF SWITCH LOCK
Pressing the button on the LEFT-hand side of the handgrip while polishing locks the on-off switch. This allows the operator to move his/her hands freely to different gripping positions while the tool is operating.
DESIGN
The attention to detail is not limited to just the innovative and attractive design. The modern lines and exceptional technical quality are combined with a number of details that are the result of meticulous research aimed at achieving maximum operator comfort.
*Random orbital polisher (125mm - 5- 15mm orbit) (LHR15ES)
The RUPES LHR15ES Bigfoot random orbital polisher is designed for professional detailers and enthusiasts who demand precision and efficiency. Featuring a 15 mm orbit and a 125 mm backing pad, this tool excels at working on curved surfaces, providing smooth and consistent polishing results. Its higher RPM levels, compared to similar models, deliver equivalent cutting power to larger orbit machines, making it a versatile addition to any detailing arsenal. The balanced design, combined with vibration-free operation, ensures maximum comfort during extended use while maintaining optimal control and polishing quality.
The random orbital movement of the RUPES LHR15ES occurs thanks to a sophisticated drive mechanism. The backing plate moves in an orbit while freely rotating about its central axis, thanks to centrifugal force and friction effects, resulting in a highly effective surface treatment that minimizes swirl marks and enhances finish quality. This movement pattern is widely regarded as the best compromise between efficiency and surface care, making it ideal for detailed polishing tasks on various automotive surfaces.
Designed with user comfort and safety in mind, the RUPES BigFoot polisher features an elegant, ergonomic body with a practical handgrip and a low-vibration operation. The dual-function anti-spinning shroud protects the operator from moving parts and acts as a clutch to prevent undue stress on the foam pads when not in contact with the surface. An electronic speed control module allows for precise regulation of polishing speed during operation, while the on-off switch lock enables continuous use without fatigue, allowing the operator to maintain full control and focus on the task at hand.
The modern design of the RUPES LHR15ES emphasizes both aesthetics and technical excellence. Attention to detail in its construction ensures maximum operator comfort and durability, making it a reliable tool for professional and hobbyist detailers alike. Whether working on automotive paint correction or finishing, this polisher delivers high performance, ease of use, and excellent results in a compact, well-balanced package.
