The FLEX PE 2 18-EC C SET is a cordless rotary polisher with a speed range of 550–1800 rpm and accommodates pads up to 150 mm. The machine maintains the same performance as a corded polisher throughout the battery's working life, thanks to CDC electronics that stabilise the speed.
The brushless motor and newly developed gearbox are designed for low vibration and low noise, making the machine suitable for deep scratches and heavily worn paintwork. In FLEX's two-step system with a red foam pad and red Polish, maximum cutting speed is achieved.
The tool is powered by the FLEX 18V battery system and works with all FLEX 18V battery packs, from 2.5 Ah to 8.0 Ah. See the full range of FLEX 18V battery packs for compatible batteries.
Why professionals choose the FLEX Rotary Polisher
Professionals choose the FLEX polisher for its ergonomic design with soft grip surfaces and a very flat gearbox head, which provides better control close to the surface in all working positions. The spindle lock is located on the underside for easy and safe pad changes without risk of accidental start-up.
The Electronic Management System (EMS) protects the machine against overload, high temperature and unintentional restart after a power cut, extending service life and increasing operational reliability during tightly scheduled detailing work.
Is the FLEX Rotary Polisher suited to body shops and marine maintenance?
