Built for surface preparation on larger panels where a balance of material removal and finish control is needed, the Ingersoll Rand R036C-C1 Premium Random Orbital Sander pairs a 6″ vinyl pad with a 3/16″ orbit for sanding wood, composites, fiberglass, sheet metal, and similar shop materials. Random orbital sanding actionthe pad moves in small overlapping motions instead of one fixed circular path helps reduce visible swirl patterns, while the 3/16″ orbit removes material faster than finer 3/32″ models when preparing surfaces for primer, paint, coating, or repair work.Powered by a 0.3 HP motor with 13,000 RPM free speed, the R036C-C1 gives shops productive sanding speed in a compact pneumatic tool body. The 6″ pad size covers more surface per pass than 5″ models, making it useful for doors, hoods, body panels, tabletops, and broad fabricated parts. This Premium Random Orbital Sander is listed as vacuum ready, allowing connection to compatible dust extraction systems for particle removal during sanding. Manufacturer-listed 3.9 m/s vibration and 80.9 dB(A) sound pressure provide useful comparison points for buyers evaluating handling and workplace exposure data.Type: Random Orbital Sander | Series: Premium Random Orbital Sander | Model: R036C-C1 | Pad Size: 6″ / 152 mm | Pad Style: Vinyl | Orbit Diameter: 3/16″ / 5 mm | Max Free Speed: 13,000 RPM | Rated Power: 0.3 HP / 0.22 kW | Vacuum Ready: Vacuum Ready | Weight: 1.6 lb / 0.73 kg | Length: 6.69″ / 170 mm | Vibration: 3.9 m/s | Vibration Uncertainty K: 1.5 m/s | Sound Pressure: 80.9 dB(A) | Sound Power: 91.9 dB(A)Features:0.3 HP motor provides sanding power for surface preparation, finishing, and general material removal tasks.13,000 RPM free speed supports fast sanding action across common shop materials.3/16″ orbit delivers a balanced sanding pattern for stock removal, primer prep, feathering, and general surface conditioning.6″ vinyl pad provides broader coverage per pass than 5″ models, helping improve efficiency on larger work surfaces.Vacuum-ready configuration supports connection to compatible dust extraction systems for particle removal during sanding.Extended handle provides additional support and hinges up for access to the air inlet.Recessed paddle helps avoid pinch points, while the tucked-away regulator allows quick changes during use.Contoured housing and ultimate comfort grip support controlled handling during extended sanding sessions.Applications:Autobody and refinishing: Feathering repaired areas, sanding primer, preparing panels, and working larger surfaces before paint.Woodworking and cabinet shops: Sanding doors, cabinet panels, tabletops, furniture parts, and broader wood surfaces using a 6″ abrasive format.Composite and fiberglass work: Preparing molded parts, smoothing fiberglass panels, and sanding composite surfaces before coating or finishing.Metalworking and fabrication: Light surface cleanup, sheet metal finishing, and preparation of parts before paint or protective coating.Industrial maintenance and MRO: Repair, refurbishment, and coating-prep tasks where 6″ pad coverage and vacuum-ready operation help manage repeated sanding work.FAQs:Q: What is the R036C-C1 best used for?A: The R036C-C1 is well suited for general-purpose sanding, primer prep, feathering, and surface conditioning on larger work areas. Its 6″ pad covers more surface per pass than a 5″ model, while the 3/16″ orbit removes material faster than finer 3/32″ orbit versions.Q: What is the difference between the R036C-C1 and R036C-C2?A: Both models use a 6″ vinyl pad, 13,000 RPM free speed, 0.3 HP motor, and vacuum-ready configuration. The R036C-C1 has a 3/16″ orbit for more general-purpose sanding and removal, while the R036C-C2 has a 3/32″ orbit for finer finishing.Q: How does the 6″ pad compare with a 5″ model?A: A 6″ pad covers more area per pass, which helps on broad panels, doors, hoods, and larger flat surfaces. A 5″ pad gives slightly more control in tighter spaces or on smaller contoured parts.Q: Is the R036C-C1 self-generating vacuum?A: No. The R036C-C1 is listed as vacuum ready, meaning it is intended to connect to a compatible external dust extraction or vacuum system. For a 6″, 3/16″ orbit vinyl-pad model with self-generating vacuum, review the R036C-S1.Q: Does this model use hook-and-loop abrasive discs?A: No. The R036C-C1 is listed with a vinyl pad. For a 6″, 3/16″ orbit Premium model with a hook-and-loop pad, review the R036C-C1-HL version. body{margin:0;padding:0;overflow-x:hidden;} .spec-accordion{width:100%;max-width:1100px;margin:1em
