Would this compound work good on a 1x30 belt sander? I have a leather strop for my belt sander, but I dnt know if this compnd. would stay on the leath

That seems like overkill. If you properly strop the blade several times on each side, that will do the job. You don't need anything moving at a higher speed.

Yes the compoind is great it has alot of metal cutting/polishing ability and adheres to leather great its a great buy for the price also.Thanks

I have found this compound to not stick very well to any moving belt or wheel

Yes it would, although I prefer the greenstone (chromium oxide) it's a little harder and doesnt apply as easy. But its more aggressive and does a better job sharpening

21 inches is not standard there are several sizes of belt sanders. when buying a sander look for the advertised belt size

My sander has a 1 1/16" outside diameter on the vacuum port and the armorall vacuum fit right on it. It's a dewalt sander and I bet it's a standard size port. The vacuum works GREAT at keeping the dust down, way better than the little bag the sander came with. I don't think you will need anything extra.

The Bosch 5 in ROS20VSK sander a really excellent tool for flat-ish surfaces 5 inches across or more.... So maybe some parts of doors and flat panels. But it is a better prep sander than a finish removal tool. If you have mouldings and door panels you will want a detail sander... after a chemical strip. There area lot of eco-freindly chem strippers out there, so don't fool around with sanding old varnish off detailed parts. Look into multifunction tools at Harbor freight. harborfreight.com/catalogsearch/result?q=multifunction+tool One they offer has variable speed and comes in a kit with a triangle detail sanding head. Better than the Fein Tool which costs a ridiculous amount more. I know. I'm a pro and I use my HF tool all the time on jobs with guys who have Fein Tools...HF is a Great tool for the money. Skip the bigger sanders listed as "detail sanders". They are too large You will want to cut your own sandpaper for the detail heads from 3X sandpaper hook-n-loop disks. 3x sandpaper is excellent stuff so if you buy this Bosch RO sander get some 3X discs for it too.

There is a 5/16-24 thread on the backing plate that fits most DA sanders. If your sander has this thread it should fit.

I use mine on a 1/3 HP electric motor to hold a wooden pulley that turns a 1X42 inch sanding/grinding belt to sharpen tools with. It works great. I think your question has been answered by others here already. Good luck.

Personally I use the 80 grit most often. With constant movement of the wood perpendicular to the movement of the belt, you can get a fairly nice finish with 80 grit as well as rapid stock removal. I generally use the belt sander to take down stock and then I use a hand sander for finishing

Absolutely. Just grab her and hold on tight. Full speed is a real son of a bitch. This sander makes my belt sander look like screwdriver.

It should work if it has the correct thread to match your tool. Mine was a porta cable sander and the thread is 5/16 by 26 if I remember correctly? Check carefully the specs on your tool. RC

This is a fairly small belt sander that's intended for delicate work. It will obviously work on harder woods, but it's primarily designed for use on soft woods, like spruce and balsa. So, you wouldn't really require a dust port...it would make such a small power tool unwieldy and difficult to use if one were even attached. And being small, it doesn't produce anywhere near the power and dust that a full size belt sander would use. Being only 150 watts, it doesn't get all that hot either....more like "warm" during normal use. Any amount of heat generated also depends highly on how long you're using it (the "on" time).

Good Day Sir,I did some measurements for you and hope that these are what you were looking for to be able to determine if it will work for your sander.1-1/4" from screw hole to screw hole1-5/8" cross screws7/8" from center pad to screw hole

Dennis, If you have a 6" sander, these sanding disks will probably not cover your entire hooked pad. That would damage the hook area on the exposed portion of the pad. I would guess that these will not work. D. Stockwell

Paula, As long as your sander has a 5" hook and loop pad with 8 holes there should be no problem with fit. I have purchased 5" sanding discs from many different manufacturers and all have fit with the only exception being sometimes the holes do not line up exactly. Hope that info helps you.

The brand doesn't matter. So long as the sander is a 5" orbital with 5 or 8 holes it will fit.

Simple, if the kit you have with the compressor does not have the correct size fitting for the sander go to HD or Lowes and get one. Those sales guys would consider this an easy fix. Good luck.

The item I received is a split which should work quite well for a short strop after it's prepped and sanded: Both sides of the leather have a rough suede-ish kind of texture and is a bit on the dry side which should absorb heated wax/rouge or buffing compound quite nicely.

I run a 3/8 impact when rotating my tires and it does fine. Recovery with this unit is fairly quick. If you want to run the sander continuous for extended periods of times probably not. I would check the CFM of the sander and compare with the output of this unit.
