When paired with sanding bands, it allows operators to move between grits and materials quickly while keeping the same machine in service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe drum is formed from resilient rubber engineered to respond to rotational force during operation. As speed increases, the body of the drum applies outward pressure to secure the sanding band evenly around the surface. Once rotation stops, the drum relaxes, making band removal straightforward and tool-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis design supports consistent sanding performance while minimizing downtime between steps. Instead of stopping to change attachments, users can shift from rough removal to surface refinement in seconds—keeping workflow moving and hands off the wrench drawer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWith a full 4-inch sanding width, the expanding drum delivers broad surface contact when used with sanding bands, helping reduce the number of passes needed on flat faces, edges, and curved profiles. It’s a practical solution for multi-stage sanding in metal fabrication, woodworking, and general shop applications where adaptability matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/b\u003e 1 piece\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eDimensions\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFace Width – 4”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHead Diameter – 3-1\/2”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial – Rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiameter – Keyway\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax RPM – 4,000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eMachines Used On:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurface finishing machines, linear grinders, burnishers, contouring grinders, and burnishing machines aka Drum Sanding Machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eApplication:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFerrous Materials – Cast Iron, Steel, Stainless, Steel, Titanium, Nickel, Wrought Iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon-Ferrous Materials - Copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOther Materials – Fiberglass, Plastic, Hard Rubber, Wood, Stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry use ONLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis Rubber Expanding Drum is especially well suited for:\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaint and rust removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWood sanding (tables, decks, cabinetry, trim)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal surface preparation prior to buffing or polishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdge work and contour sanding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneral-purpose sanding where flexibility is required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eSafety Tips \u0026amp; Techniques:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApply light pressure and let the tool do the work.
