Universal sanders are an essential piece of equipment for any plasterer. Thankfully, with this Black Friday deal you won’t have to spend a load on replacing your old model. Its aluminium swivel head is durable and means a hassle free sanding action to walls and ceilings. What’s more, its durable timber handle mean it’ll last a lot longer than that tired looking sander you have on-site.

Collomix M14 Mixing Paddles, Anti Clockwise M14 Threaded Shaft-120mm

Paddle Mixers are perfect for speedily mixing ingredients such as screed, mortar, plaster, paste and paint. This model is particularly useful in that the blades are anti-clockwise when they rotate which means the ingredients are forced to the bottom. It also contains an M14 thread which allows the paddle to attach to power mixing tools meaning increased convenience.

Drywall Rasp

Do you regularly have to sand down and reshape your plasterboard? This bargain’s for you! Our drywall rasp has a two way sanding action as well as guide rails necessary for additional safety. At only £2.20 it’s an absolute steal and cheaper than anything else around.
