belt sander, February 11, 2008
By 302ranger from Raleigh, NC

"Overall great tool, very low air consumption and very strong. One tip throw the belts away, there garbage, get some from granger or another industrial supply house. The two that came with the tool did not last ten min. on mild steel. And dont forget to oil it every time you use it."

Air Belt Sander, January 14, 2008
By OneManGarage from Indiana

"This belt sander is a very good bang for the buck. Very reasonably priced, seems to be built well. I've used it several times and it has performed flawlessly. One of the things I like most about this sander is the rotating head. This feature makes it a lot easier to get into tight areas as well as making it easier to use either hand. I think the belts supplied with it are in need of a little improvement mainly in the area where they are laminated together. It makes the surface being sanded a little rougher than preferred until the laminated area wears down."

Great detail sander, October 30, 2007
By severed5 from Sanford, NC

"I learned about this sander when I started working at a company doing labor work, sanding and polishing welds all day on 100' industrial dryers. This sander really takes a beating and still keeps working great. There's a part (the rubber wheel) that tends to wear out after hours of hard abuse, but the replacement part is easy to find online and it's not that expensive. I now use this sander to blend in welds on custom suspensions. Very nice tool to have around the shop."
