Craftsman 3×21 11726 8 AMP

Some sanding jobs require just a little bit more power.  Some sanding jobs need a touch more oomph.  If you need a reliable belt sander that works with a bit more authority, look no further than the heavy duty Craftsman 3 X 21” model 11726 belt sander.  A competent piece of equipment with a practical design that certainly demands respect, the Craftsman model 11726 might just be the right machine for your sanding needs.

Coming in at a throttling 8 amps and delivering an exceptional 1300 fpm, which is a fantastic speed for a model of this size, the Craftsman 3 X 21” model 11726 belt sander works just as well as its younger brother (the 6 amp 11722 model), but provides that little bit of extra power you may need for those heftier jobs.  It offers a lever belt release for effortless belt changes and a lock-on trigger for serious control.  For fast and easy cleanup, the model 11726 belt sander comes standard with a dust bag.  Upon a few test drives, the Craftsman model 11726 belt sander proves remarkably accomplished for detail oriented tasks.  Tipping the scale at just under 9 pounds (not too heavy at all), it is a revered, brooding black machine with red and silver trim.

The Craftsman 3 X 21” 8 amp belt sander is purchasable for a mere $84.99 new (quite possibly less if you can find it on sale) and somewhere in the range of $40 to $60 used.  Whatever the task, the model 11726 should be considered a permanent resident for your shop or garage.
