Rupes LHR 21 Mark V

The RUPES BigFoot LHR21 Mark V polisher represents a real breakthrough in the professional polishing industry. This polisher features a ⌀150 mm backing pad and a 21 mm orbit and stands out for a series of technical innovations aimed at improving performance and comfort, offering more precise and efficient polishing.

Reduced vibration and silence with POLYSYNTHEC™ gears

A key innovation of the Mark V is the use of POLYSYNTHEC™ composite gears, which offer superior resistance to wear even in the most demanding working conditions. These gears are lighter than traditional metal gears and require less lubrication, thus improving the efficiency of the motor and reducing energy loss. The result is a drastic reduction in vibration and noise, improving comfort during prolonged use. The reduction in vibration is particularly important because it allows the operator to maintain a more stable grip, improving the precision of movements and the quality of the polishing. This also reduces fatigue during long work sessions, ensuring consistent and professional results. The 47% reduction in noise compared to previous models, however, makes the work environment quieter and more pleasant, protecting the operator’s hearing.

PrecisionPro backing pads and low centre of gravity for optimal control

The BigFoot Mark V polishers also introduce the new PrecisionPro backing pads, designed to ensure optimal balance when using different pads. These pads feature a protective rubber edge, which ensures greater safety when polishing delicate surfaces, reducing the risk of accidental damage. This allows the operator to work with greater confidence, even on sensitive surfaces such as edges or particularly delicate bodywork parts. Another notable innovation is the low centre of gravity of the Mark V polishers. Lowered by 13 mm compared to previous models, this allows unparalleled stability and superior control of the tool, especially in complex work situations. With a lower center of gravity, the operator can maneuver the polisher with greater precision, even when working on complex surfaces or intricate details.
