Weight: 0.65kg

Overview:

The Blue Spot Tools 63 Piece Sanding & Finishing Rotary Tool Accessory Set delivers three rubber sanding drums and 60 replacement sanding bands in a single kit. The drums come in three sizes (6.3mm, 9.5mm, and 12.6mm) with 20 replacement bands provided for each diameter.

All three drum sizes share the same design - a rubber mandrel on a metal shank. This shank fits directly into a rotary tool collet for quick, straightforward fitting. The 6.3mm drum suits tight corners and narrow profiles, while the 12.6mm covers broader surface areas. The 9.5mm sits between the two for mid-size curves and general shaping work.

Both drums and bands work with most standard rotary tools, needing no additional adapters. The set suits craft and detail work, where controlling the sanding contact area makes a difference to the finish.

How to Use

• Select the Drum Size: Choose the drum diameter that best matches the width of the area you are working on.

• Fit the Sanding Band: Slide a sanding band onto the drum and tighten the retaining screw until the band sits snugly and evenly.

• Insert into the Rotary Tool: Place the drum's metal shank into the rotary tool collet and tighten the collet nut securely.

• Set Your Speed: Start at a lower speed for greater control, and increase only as the job requires.

• Sand the Surface: Move the drum side-to-side across the workpiece, applying light, even pressure throughout.

• Replace Worn Bands: When a band is worn, switch off the tool and loosen the retaining screw. Slide off the old band and fit a fresh one.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What materials can rotary tool sanding bands be used on?
  Sanding bands work on a range of materials. Common applications include wood, metal, rubber, fibreglass, plastics, and glass.

• What is the difference between rotary tool sanding bands and sanding discs?
  Sanding bands fit over a rubber drum and are best suited to flat surfaces, edges, and rough shaping. Sanding discs are generally available in finer grits and have a more flexible surface. This makes them better suited to contoured or hard-to-reach areas.

• What grit options are available for rotary tool sanding bands?
  Rotary tool sanding bands are generally produced in 60, 120, and 240 grit. Lower grit numbers remove material more aggressively and are suited to rough shaping, while higher numbers produce a smoother finish.

• What causes uneven wear on a rotary tool sanding band?
  Uneven wear is most often caused by applying too much pressure or running the tool at too high a speed. Moving the drum side-to-side, perpendicular to the drum's axis, helps distribute wear more evenly. This also reduces the risk of sanding unintended grooves into the workpiece.

• Can rotary tool sanding bands be used wet or dry?
  Many aluminium oxide sanding bands are water-resistant and suitable for both wet and dry use. Always check the manufacturer's guidance for the specific bands you are using.

Summary

The Blue Spot Tools Sanding & Finishing Rotary Tool Accessory Set (19072) is a 63-piece set that handles both sanding and finishing across three drum sizes.
