Frequently Asked Questions
What sanding discs fit JCB orbital sanders?
JCB orbital sanders use standard 125mm hook-and-loop (Velcro) sanding discs, compatible with all major brands of 125mm orbital sander discs. JCB mesh sanding sheets are included with the Pro model and are available separately.
What is the difference between a random orbital sander and a belt sander?
A random orbital sander moves in a random elliptical pattern that prevents swirl marks and produces a fine finish suitable for painted and varnished surfaces. A belt sander moves in a single direction and removes material faster but leaves visible scratches that require further work.
Can JCB orbital sanders be used for metal sanding?
Yes, with the correct abrasive disc. Use aluminium oxide or zirconia discs rated for metal for best results. Always use dust extraction or a dust bag and wear appropriate PPE when sanding metal.
