Rigid Oscillating Edge Belt/Spindle Sander EB44241. Home Depot is supposed to have the replacement sanding sleeves, 1/2", 3/4", 1", 1 1/2", 2"--fine, medium & course grit but they were no help. The SKU numbers are: AC7001, AC7002, AC7003, AC7004, AC7005, AC7006, AC7007, AC7008, AC7009, AC7010, AC7011, AC7012, AC7013, AC7014 and AC7015. Do you know of a reasonably-priced source?

Amazon seems to have a good selection. I came across a Ridgid Forum website where you may ask the experts any questions about your Rigid products. I thought you might find it useful.

Types of Drum Sanders:
There many types of drum sanders in the market today which comes in various styles and a sizes. Some are connected to electric motors, others to drills. There are also unsteady models used on a board or hand held.

When using these drum sanders make sure that you have a protective gear. Wear protective glasses or a face mask to avoid the dust residues from entering your eyes. Dusts can also enter your lungs.

Be cautious. Make sure the switch is turned off before plugging the device. Change the sanding belts and disks while the devide is turned off. Empty the dust bag after every use.

Inspect the sand belts or disks before the start of every job. Replace worn out or clashed parts before they damage the tool.

Adjusting the sand belt tension regularly keeps the belt running in good condition, and at the same pace as the pulley drum. It will keep your tool in tiptop condition for a longer period of time.

Be careful with your hands during operation of the drum sander. Keep one hand in the trigger switch, the other in the front anterior knob.

Keep the cords free from the sanding area while in use.
