🔧 Enhance Sanding Efficiency with Steelex D3838 Sanding Sleeves W1831 Review

I bought these to use with my Central Machinery 14 inch oscillating spindle sander that I bought from Harbor Freight. They fit perfectly on the rubber axles and are easy to assemble. I've used it occasionally on poplar which is a little harder than pine and the sanded finish has held up well.

Received today. Assembly instructions are minimal, but not really a problem. The biggest problem is that the top washer doesn't go through the end of the spindle. I had to drill out to fit. Great product at a great price. Of course I can't confirm the durability yet but it seems durable and for a home store I think it will do. Last year I bought two WEN air purifiers. They work great. I love WEN products.

At least they are cheap. I agree with another reviewer that they look more like 120 grit than 240 grit. They arrived in their packaging with slight signs of wear visible. It certainly doesn't get better with use. Be careful when storing them as they have minimal backing and will warp if pressed very lightly. I wavered between 2 and 3 stars. I was generous with 3.
