To get closer to work, the hand sander has a shorter height than it used to.
Separate counterweights make the electric sander less noisy, which makes it more comfortable to use.
Rubber is added to all of the important parts of the sander.
Designed to keep dust from getting into the switch for a longer switch life.
Improved dust collection and a dust bag that can be locked with one han.
The dust port is made to fit right into the DWV010 or DWV012 dust collectors.
To connect the dust port to other vacuums with 1-1/4-inch hoses, use the DWV9000 Universal Quick Connector.
There is a 3-amp motor in the DWE6423 5-inch Random Orbital Sander Kit with the hook and loop pad. It runs at speeds that range from 8,000 to 12,000 OPM. The separate counterweight reduces vibration and, when used with the rubber grip, makes sanding more comfortable. It has a shorter design that lets people get closer to the work surface. The one-handed locking dust bag can be attached to the power sander to help collect dust, or the sander can be attached directly to the DWV010 or DWV012 dust collectors.
This is a very good sander. For the most part, the main reason I’m writing a review is to show what I did to make my own DIY vacuum connection. I went to the big box home improvement store near me and found a drain and trap connector there. I bought it from a company called American Valve. It can go from 2″ to 1 1/2″. A hose clamp also comes with the package. Just connect the 1 1/2″ side to the sander (it’s a little tight, but it will work) and the larger side to a typical 2″ shop vac hose. This is how it works. And the sander with the attached fitting fits in the storage bag with no problem. This is a lot cheaper than buying the Dewalt adapter, which costs a lot more.
