Product information
The BD12 combines both a patented 12″ belt and drum sander in one.
Same Machine, Brand New Look!
Modelled after the Galaxy 2000, the BD12 shares the same technology, but in a 12″ machine.
Either mode is equally aggressive, allowing you to economically tackle challenging or delicate projects with excellent results.
With the optional 9hp-3 phase motor, it is ideally suited for large surfaces and rider attachments.
7.5 hp Motor At the heart of all our floor sanders is a single phase, 7.5 hp motor, custom manufactured by Galaxy. This heavyweight exceeds the 4.5 hp industry average by over 66%! An optional 3-Phase 9.0 hp is available for industrial applications. *By loosening two release pins, the motor easily detaches for speed and ease in disassembly and one-man transportation. More power, more torque, perfectly balanced with drum speed and drum pressure provide a real performance advantage.

Optimum Weight Distribution Galaxy floor sanders are known for their solid build and weight behind them. This design advantage ensures stability and gives the floor sanding professional an aggressive cut. Optimum weight distribution is critical to performance, as physics testifies. Galaxy machines are ideally balanced keeping the drum fixed on the floor, to deliver the best cut and sanding performance. With our drum pressure mechanism, you can control the depth of cut by simply pulling a lever. No external weights are required.
