The Hiretechnicians HT7‑2 (also known as HT7) is a professional-grade, high-performance disc floor sander, specifically engineered for edge sanding in tight or confined spaces. Its precise balance and responsive feel make it ideal for removing finishes and imperfections while preparing solid wood, parquet, or engineered flooring for finishing applications.

Featuring a potent 1.5 hp four-pole (brush) motor with a 3:1 gear ratio, the HT7‑2 drives a dynamically balanced 178 mm (7″) metal-backed sanding pad, delivering score-free results across various surface types—including hardwood, cork, composite, and decking.

Its bias-off, double-pole switch ensures safety by preventing accidental start-ups, while the integrated dust pickup system—powered by an oversize vacuum fan and utilizing disposable paper or cloth dust bags—keeps the workspace cleaner and safer. The ABS disc guard with bronze insert protects skirting and molding edges, and the lightweight 16.4 kg (36 lb) body offers excellent manageability around baseboards, stair treads, and closets
