Shop Fox W1854Z 18" 2 HP Open-End Drum Sander with VS Feed
A 36" capacity, open-end drum sander for precision on every pass.
Stop manually sanding wide panels – this efficient drum sander gives professional results for tabletops, doors, and other large workpieces.
The open-end design allows you to sand workpieces twice as wide as the drum by flipping them over and sanding in two passes. You’ll get a 36" wide capacity for a fraction of the cost of larger industrial sanders.
Additional features like variable-speed feed, a hook-and-loop drum for easy sandpaper changes, and a built-in mobile base make this an affordable and space-saving choice.
Whether you build custom cabinetry, run a small production furniture shop, or just enjoy DIY projects, this machine will give you a smooth surface on every board.
Key Features:
- Open-End Design: Easily sand boards up to 36" wide for a perfect finish on drawer fronts and glued-up panels.
- Electronic Variable Speed Conveyor: For effortless changes between 0-12 FPM so you can quickly adjust to different wood types.
- Dual Sandpaper Speeds: Combined with the variable-speed feed, allows further refinement for the exact finish you need.
- Stationary Drum Headstock: The table moves up and down instead of the head for greater stability and less vibration during sanding.
- Hook-and-Loop Sandpaper Drum: The sandpaper is easy to use and replace; no cleaning and scraping like with adhesive-backed paper.
- Spring-Loaded Pressure Rollers: They provide consistent pressure and cause less snipe for uniform sanding results.
- Built-In Mobile Base: Lets you easily relocate the machine throughout your shop.
