Robert Cracknell Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Guys.... If I can draw on the vast experience of forum members then I hope I can find the answer I need... Many years ago I purchased a DeWalt DW100 table top bandsaw with a built in 125mm disc sander. It probably my most sensible investment, not only for modelling but for many other jobs. The problem I have is that the adhesive on the hook & loop backing plate is not what it was and when I pull off the sanding discs themselves it starts to part company with the metal disc on the saw. Does anyone know where I might find a new loop disc to stick on the bandsaw? I have asked all my usual suppliers of sanding discs but no luck. I have found Hook & Loop up to 180mm wide but this is a fabric based material and may not have the strength needed. The disc on the saw appears to be bonded to a heavy card with a self adhesive back. I have tried removing the backing pad from a power drill based backing pad but it is difficult without damaging it and keeping the power of the adhesive intact. Any and all help appreciated.......

Don Fry Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Haven't looked, but when I replaced mine, E Bay provided. But the search criteria were not easy, to get away from the sandpaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Fry Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Welcome, I did look, had hook and loop, and replacement, and failed. E Bay searches are odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
