Get Hustler performance in a compact package with the Hutchins Model 2023 “Mini” Hustler Straightline. Engineered for professionals who need precision in tight spaces, this smaller version of the classic Hustler delivers the same synchronized, straightline action — now in a lighter, more maneuverable format.
The unique triple counterbalance system ensures a nearly vibration-free, smooth, powerful sanding without surface battering, while the dual-cylinder, twin-drive design maintains perfectly aligned strokes. Whether you’re leveling with coarse grit, refining with ultra-fine abrasives, or removing blemishes in delicate finishes, the Mini Hustler adapts with speed and control.
Perfect for automotive panels, woodworking details, and finer industrial finishing, the Model 2023 makes it easy to achieve precise back-and-forth action where larger sanders can’t go. Extremely popular for processing metal, stainless, and aluminum.

Water/Wet Sanders
- Ideal for finishing and more delicate processing where heat is a concern. Also used to assist in dust control where vacuum systems are unavailable or unreasonable to equip.
- Our Water Sanders are equipped with a Patented "Thru-the-Pad" distribution system that enables a steady, regular flow of water to your surface. Most Models are equipped with a filtered 'water bell' that can be dropped into any source of clean water (like a 5-gallon bucket).
Speed Files
- Good for careful planing or finishing up blocking stages where you want that extra bit of control over your contours.
- Extremely popular is our PF-16 which is made from a firm plastic frame. Many customers like the rigid structure that gives just the perfect amount of flex when required.
- The AF-16 was featured in the movie, Shawshank Redemption in the last scene when Andy Dufrene sands his boat on the beach in Baja California.
