HANDLER 76M Mid-Size 2-Station Bench-Top Polishing Unit with 1/3 HP double-shaft motor and integrated dust collector, 150 CFM, 115V/60Hz
Description
HANDLER Model 76M — Mid-Size 2-Station Bench-Top Polishing Unit
1/3 HP double-shaft motor with left/right spindles + integrated 150 CFM dust collection — the production-lab workhorse
HANDLER Manufacturing has been a family-owned American maker of dental laboratory equipment since 1920. The 76-Series PolishingUnits combine reliable Polishing motors with integrated dust collection in a single rugged baked-enamel bench-top cabinet. The 76M is the mid-size 2-station workhorse of the 76 Series — double-shaft motor, left and right tapered spindles, integrated 150 CFM dust collection, and a baked-enamel chassis tough enough for daily shop abuse.

Single power cord, single warranty, single point of factory support
What Makes This Unique
The 76M is the model most production labs buy as their primary Polishing station. The double-shaft motor and dual tapered spindles mean the operator can mount different wheels for rough and finish work and switch sides instead of switching wheels — minutes saved per case multiplied across a typical lab's daily caseload.
💡 Selling Tips for Sales Team
Sell the workflow. "Rough on the left, polish on the right." That single line closes more 76M sales than any spec sheet.
76M vs. 76E. If the lab has bench room and runs more than 5–10 cases per day, recommend the 76M — the 2-station saves real time. 76E for satellite or jewelry use.
Larger filter = lower TCO. 480 cubic inches of filter media vs. 260 in the 76E means filter changes are less frequent.
Continuous-duty rating. The 1/3 HP double-shaft motor is built for shop use, not light hobby use. Highlight this when comparing to lower-priced jewelry-grade Units.
