Repairing a disk sander....

[Chuck Wintle]

I have an older Ryobi disk sander with the velcro to hold the sanding disk in place. the velcro wore out and was wondering how to repair this. Could i buy some velcro and glue it in place to make this work?

HD use to have some replacement pads. Haven't looked lateley but I had to do the same thing to mine once.

My HD had them just the other day. Not that I cruise the tool isle every time I'm there or anything ;-)

Woodworkers Supply sells a H&L conversion kit, which will contain what you want.

Charles, take out the screws from the pad ( where the sandpaper goes ) remove the pad go to the BORG and match up the screw holes and buy the one that fits.....they are about 6 bucks

Other brands fit? I been waiting to see a replacement one. I'll try that. Anyone else's must be good. The stock one sure is carp.
