Tracking adjustments are made quickly and externally, with minimal downtime using the patented belt tension mechanism. Make any resanding job a profitable experience with this overachiever.

7.5 hp Motor
At the heart of all our floor sanders is a single phase, 7.5 hp motor, custom manufactured by Galaxy. This heavyweight exceeds the 4.5 hp industry average by over 66%!

Optimum Weight Distribution
Galaxy floor sanders are known for their solid build and weight behind them. This design advantage ensures stability and gives the floor sanding professional an aggressive cut. Optimum weight distribution is critical to performance, as physics testifies. Galaxy machines are ideally balanced keeping the drum fixed on the floor, to deliver the best cut and sanding performance. With our drum pressure mechanism, you can control the depth of cut by simply pulling a lever. No external weights are required.

Belt Tension Mechanism

Galaxy machines have a self-aligning and externally adjustable belt tension mechanism that allows the operator to adjust belt tracking during machine operation. Minimal interruption required for belt tracking adjustments.

Dustless Elbow

A swivel, dustless elbow coupled with double wiper seals provides you with a further dust control measure, eliminating dust leakage for reduced clean up time.

Ergonomically Designed Handles

Handles are positioned at the perfect height and distance apart for optimal control and comfort, helping to relieve back strain.
