Low profile design and variable speed range facilitate otherwise difficult jobs.

Sander features a five-inch hook-and-loop pad with eight-hole pattern. Low-Profile Design for Optimum Control
The 390K sets a new standard for palm-grip sanders. Its low-profile design is 31% shorter than the competition. This means superior control and finish, as well as comfortable handling on the job.

EnduraTech Motor for Increased Productivity
Equipped with a revolutionary 3.5-amp EnduraTech brushless motor, this sander has a variable speed range of 7,000 to 12,000 OPM for optimal removal rate on a variety of materials. And because the motor has 71% fewer wearable parts, it will last five to ten times longer than traditional motors, saving you money and boosting productivity in both the short and long term.

What's more, an electronic load-control feature monitors the RPM and maintains a constant operating speed for smooth sanding and 42% faster material removal. Also, the 390K saves you time with its innovative electronic motor brake, which reduces spin-down waiting by 73%.

A separate mechanical pad brake reduces free-spin--effectively putting an end to gouging, and a 3/32-inch orbit diameter means this sander can handle a range of materials with ease.

Portable and User Friendly
Complete with a rubber grip and measuring 4 x 5 x 12 inches (WxHxD) and weighing just 2.1 pounds, the 390K is comfortable, compact, and easy to handle and store.

For further convenience, an integrated dust port accepts 1.0 and 1.5-inch vacuum hoses for optimal dust collection. This makes your workspace cleaner and healthier and helps maintain good visibility of your workpiece.

What Customers Say About Porter-Cable 390K 5-Inch Low Profile Random Orbit Sander Kit with Hook & Loop Pad and Dust Collection:

The "on board" dust collection was good, but I would recommend a dust mask for the operator. My first project went well, the sand paper held up very well and the project was sanded to a fine, smooth finish with very little effort.

I own 1/4, 1/3, 1/2 sheet and a couple of belt sanders of various brands. My first sander of this type.

It would be nice if the dust collection port was more easily attached to my shop vac (Rigid). I Liked the reviews that I had read, and the product seems to live up to expectations.

I have large hands and the grip seemed fine. I purchased an assortment of Mirka disks with the sander.

The manufacturer has a good name, I am hoping for many, many years of dependable service from this machine.

Most of my sanding is done on the job site and a vacuum attachment while standing on a ladder is not an option. Not enough thought was given by Porter Cable on the dust port. The opening is entirely too small and requires constant cleaning out to avoid excessive dust in the air. Even at a work bench where a vaccuum can be a attached, the opening inside the sander still clogs constantly. Porter-Cable 390K 5-Inch Low Profile Random Orbit Sander Kit with Hook & Loop Pad and Dust Collection

I purchased this sander to replace an old orbital sander(12 years old). It provides an excellant finish,has low vibration,plenty of power over most of the variable speeds and is dustless(which my old sander was not). Porter Cable has a good reputation in the woodworking magazines I subscribe so I ponied up and spent the bucks for a sander. I am very happy with the low profile sander. NO MORE SANDING OUTSIDE IN THE WINTER. The Mirka sander paper/hook&loop is very convenient to use and lasts an acceptable amount of time.

The new sander work well and I now use it in place of my old Porter-Cable. It does now make your hand numb.

I own many Porter-Cable tools, this is everything the company said it would be. The fast stop alone, is worth the money, easy to control and very powerful.
