European Rotary

[imported_Mik]

Hi,



I'm in the market for a new Rotary. I want something pretty light and compact. I'm tossing up between these three:



RUPES â€â€œ Product data sheets -LH 18EN



Fein WPO 14-15 XE

FEIN Power Tools Pty. Ltd. - Electric power tools for professionals.

(go to surface processing)



Metabo 12-174



I'm leaning towards the Fein at the moment. My only concern is that it only goes up to 1500RPM max. Do you think this will be okay?

The rpm's really depend on what you are doing. If you are just doing the final polishing, then you probably do not need anything above 1500. If you are doing serious correction and wet sanding, then it is a good idea to use something above 1500 rpm.



I have the WPO 12-27E and it is a truly fantastic tool (just have to wear ear plugs...). It is odd that Fein does not offer a polisher that goes past 1500 rpm, though.

why not a Flex rotary ?
