Members sportycliff Posted September 6, 2023 Members Report Posted September 6, 2023 Good morning, Does anyone know where I can get sanding drums/belts/sleeves for the cheap Chinese sander/burnisher machines? Approx 2 3/8" diameter x 2" wide? I've searched ebay/Amazon/search engine and can't find any other than Tandy, and they're priced out of sight. I'd hate to have them made if someone is already carrying them in multiple grits. TIA Cliff Quote
CFM chuck123wapati Posted September 6, 2023 CFM Report Posted September 6, 2023 you may have to convert to mm to find the right size. i found 2 1/4" https://woodworker.com/3x4-12-aluminum-oxide-80-grit-spiral-band-mssu-126-221.asp Quote
Doc Reaper Posted September 6, 2023 Report Posted September 6, 2023 I have that same model from Amazon, I haven't used it yet because I have a belt sander and a burnisher I got from the leather tool guy, I'll check the box it came in to see if it has any info Quote
Members sportycliff Posted September 7, 2023 Author Members Report Posted September 7, 2023 Thanks, Still looking. Converting to 60mm didn't work. Funny, as many of these things that are out there, you'd think ebay and Amazon would be loaded with replacement belts. Quote

Members TomE Posted September 7, 2023 Members Report Posted September 7, 2023 That's an odd diameter for a sanding sleeve. https://www.mcmaster.com/products/sanding-sleeves/ Perhaps you could switch to a standard size sanding drum on your arbor. I buy sleeves for my Cobra sander/burnisher from McMaster-Carr. They sell sanding drums as well. Quote
Members dannyd93140 Posted September 7, 2023 Members Report Posted September 7, 2023 (edited) That's the one Tandy sells also. https://tandyleather.com/collections/all/products/craftool-r-burnishing-machine-sanding-sleeve Edited September 7, 2023 by dannyd93140 Quote
Members sportycliff Posted September 13, 2023 Author Members Report Posted September 13, 2023 Still looking... Quote
Members Burkhardt Posted September 14, 2023 Members Report Posted September 14, 2023 (edited) As other have said measure the shaft and get a common sized one that's more available. Edited September 14, 2023 by Burkhardt wrong size Quote
