Chicago Pneumatic CP9778 5" Air Disc Sander

This air-powered disc sander runs at 14000 rpm and delivers 0.5 hp for medium-duty sanding tasks. The pistol-grip design provides control during extended use on automotive or metal surfaces.

Check air supply and pad compatibility

Verify your compressor can supply 21 cfm at 90 psi through a 1/4 in NPT inlet with a minimum 3/8 in hose. The sander accepts hook-and-loop pads from 3 in to 7 in and uses a 7/16 in - 20 spindle thread.

Sustained load performance

Variable speed control lets you match rpm to the material without stalling under continuous pressure. The non-vacuum design requires external dust extraction for clean operation during long sessions.

Questions about this item

Does the CP9778 sander come with abrasive discs or must they be purchased separately?

The sander includes hook-and-loop backing pads in 3 in, 4 1/2 in and 5 1/2 in sizes; abrasive discs are not included and must be bought separately.

Which pad size suits the 14000 rpm maximum disc speed for fine finishing work?

The 3 in pad runs at the full 14000 rpm and is best for fine finishing; larger pads cover more area but operate at the same top speed.

Will a 21 cfm compressor at 90 psi keep the 0.5 hp motor running continuously?

Yes, the tool requires 21 cfm at 90 psi through a 3/8 in hose; a compressor meeting that flow will sustain continuous operation.
