Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3081333A1] A sanding tool comprising: a handle (110) with a first pivot point and a second pivot point; a flexible base (120) having a bottom surface for attachment to an abrasive sheet; arms arranged to couple substantially each end (124) of the base (120) with respective first and second pivot points on the handle (110). Each end of the base is capable of moving relative to the first and second pivot points of the handle in a plane (130) passing through the first and second pivot points of the handle. The sanding tool further comprises a flexible pad (160) on the top surface of the flexible base. The flexible pad is formed with dust extraction inlet channels (164a, 164b, 164c, 164d, 164e) arranged to suck air from a perimeter of the base. The dust extraction inlet channels are fluidly connectable to a vacuum source.
