The Craftex CX-Series CX512 Belt and Disc Sander is designed for shaping edges, smoothing surfaces, sanding end grain, and completing a variety of general woodworking tasks. Its 1HP, 120V motor powers both the 6″ x 48″ sanding belt and 9″ sanding disc, providing a practical combination of sanding surfaces in one machine.
The sanding belt tilts from 0 to 90, allowing it to be positioned horizontally, vertically, or at an angle to suit the workpiece. A quick-release belt tensioning and tracking system makes belt adjustments more convenient.
The 9″ sanding disc is paired with a precision-machined aluminum work table measuring 12″ x 6″. The table tilts from 0 to 45 and includes a miter gauge slot for greater control during angled and end-grain sanding.
A heavy-duty steel stand provides a stable working platform, while the 2″ dust port allows connection to a compatible dust collection system. The ON/OFF switch includes a removable locking safety key to help prevent unauthorized use.
