## Description

Product Description We see a future built on great brands, products, and people. In every facet of our business, we leverage the strengths of our global infrastructure to maximize the benefits of all three. From the Manufacturer The Powermatic 1791292K Model 3A belt/disc sander is a versatile woodworking--and metalworking--machine. The belt unit features tool-free belt positioning, with locks at 0, 45 and 90 degrees. The patented articulating table angles downward from 0-45 degrees and can handle both horizontal and vertical work. It is also effective for compound angle sanding and edge work and doubles as a backstop fence for backstop work. On the disc sanding side, a precision-balanced 12-inch disc and large tilt-table surface provide accurate angle and pattern work. The table angles from +15 to -45 degrees with a miter slot. Both tables are made from precision-ground cast iron and can accommodate a full range of angles. The belt/disc sander provides fast and accurate belt tension and tracking controls. The cast iron platen and solid crowned aluminum drums resist heat build-up and help ensure steady belt tracking, while a removable top guard allows for contour sanding. The belt/disc sander itself is constructed of rugged cast iron, too. This helps reduce vibration and makes the machine well-suited for both metal and woodworking use. A single, internally connected, four-inch dust collection port keeps everything clean and makes it easy to hook the belt/disc sander into your shop's dust collection system.

Review: Smooth, quiet, powerful, well made. Excellent tool. - The 3 phase motor is powerful, and unit can run for hours on end, without problems. Use; General machine shop support equipment.
Review: It works, so far... - Ordered this unit because the 16" disc\belt combos are almost impossible to find, now, 16" being the first choice of the Lab Manager who this was ordered for. Performance and quality are on par with the price; giving 4 stars instead of 5 because of price shift between time of locating this unit, and when approval was given from corporate to make the purchase; AND because of conflicting info between the container\documentation and the drive motor serial plate. BUT...the unit wired up and worked successfully. We use it exclusively on metal, if that tells you anything - stainless and alloy steels.
