Review on Ryobi 039066005054 Platen Assembly Sanders by Ramon Hood

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Well done. The back is too thick to securely hold 1/4 sheet.

Fits my ryobi grinder perfectly. Installation was easy (just a few screws). The terminals have a much thicker wire than the original. The only issue I have is that the spacer may be too thick as 1/4 sheets won't fit. They barely fit under the collar, but then fall out immediately when you start grinding. I've found that I have to cut off another 1/4 inch of sandpaper (meaning you only get 2 per sheet) to get a secure fit that stays in place. I'm sure the rosette will flatten out a bit over time and the 1/4 leaves will fit properly, but not yet.

Pros
  • handy
Cons
  • thin
