Performax 16-32 Plus sander

[Rocky Ragano]

I'm looking to purchase a used Performax 16-32 Plus sander; however, I'm not sure if they are still in business. When I Google it, I do see a Jet 16-32 sander that looks similar. Is this the same company? My concern is getting replacement parts if needed. Any thoughts, folks?

Thanks

I believe that Jet brand is the replacement. Depending on your location they don't come up for sale very often. It's worth the effort to check on a regular basis if that is the route you want to go.

My post wasn't clear. I found one, just wondering about parts, if needed.

I beleve that parts are interchangeable but I have not had to replace any parts on mine.

If you're having trouble getting parts from Jet, call Supermax tools. (http://www.supermaxtools.com/) These are the Performax folks who bought back the rights to certain larger models from Jet. They claim to have a wide range of Performax parts available.

Jet bought Performax; they are the same company. They should have replacement parts, but you should ask Jet to be sure.

Jet bought out Preformax a few years ago, parts and service are available thru Jet.
