sportycliff Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chuck123wapati Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doc Reaper Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sportycliff Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomE Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Burkhardt Report post 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
