SB1097 6" x 108" Variable-Speed Oscillating Edge Sander

A powerful sander with touch screen controls for precise accuracy.

Industrial strength plus ultimate convenience right at your fingertips–that was the approach to designing the South Bend SB1097 world-class edge sander with auxiliary spindle sanding table.

The 3 HP motor and digital control for variable speed will take your edge and contour sanding to a whole new level of power and precision.

The sanding head tilts from 0–90° allowing to edge sand at any angle on the heaviest of workpieces with the full support of the large precision-ground cast-iron table.

And you get two high-quality industrial machines in one, with the addition of an integrated oscillating spindle sander with 1-1/2", 2", and 3" interchangeable drums and auxiliary table.

Answer all your busy shop’s edge and contour sanding needs.

A full range of replacement belts are available.
