Not trying to be a wise ass, but why would anyone need to know the rpms with no load at various speed settings?

Just comparing to a flex forced rotation polisher since they list both opm's and rpm's with no load that is all

The 3401 does produce rpm's as it is forced rotation (gear driven), whereas a da such as a PC, Griot or Meg's produces rpm by way of a free spindle rotation and that's why the specs is for opm's and not rpm's.
