Versatile dual-head buffer/polishing lathes from Palmgren can handle the most-demanding polishing applications, as well as fine detailing work. Available in 12” and 16” models, the two-speed buffer provides fast and effective deburring, finishing, graining, surface conditioning, polishing and buffing. Both can easily remove scratches and imperfections to bring out the natural luster of the metal.

The buffer/lathe has a direct drive train with rugged oversized threaded nickel chromed shaft and is designed with additional room between the wheels to accommodate a variety of parts simply and quickly.
