June 13, 20242 yr comment_337201 I'm in need of a new belt for my Shopsmith sander and headed to Menards tomorrow. I don't know much about these brands other than they have a wide price difference. Any experience or pro/con recommendations, or shop somewhere else? https://www.menards.com/main/search.html?search=6+x+48+sanding+belt Report
June 13, 20242 yr comment_337217 I've used both the Performax and the Gator brand with good performance and life. That said, both were for my 3x21 hand held belt sanders. I use one of those crepe cleaners as needed. Surprisingly, I had very good performance from Harbor Freight belts on my 4x36 stationary. Report

January 14, 20251 yr comment_349928 Only 4” on the shelf , no 6” unless ordered? Non stock , only can be ordered? Report
