BLACK+DECKER350 W Electric Powerfile Sander , KA900E-QS with a 2 Pin Plug (EU Version)

An excellant and very useful tool. These have been around for over 30 years or more, and this is my first one. It has many uses around the shed and works a treat with rapid material removal.Good for metal but works fine on wood too, just be careful as, like full size belt sanders, it removes material very quickly! Its noisy too, but what mains tool isnt?Belts are small in width and will wear rapidly, but are cheap to replace. Keep some spare, or else, you'll not finish the job! The dust extractor does work as well. Recommended.

I have used this tool for several jobs and really like it. The coarse belts can be a bit unforgiving and take away too much wood if you're not careful but with a little practice and care it can be a very useful addition to any toolkit.

Even better than expected, easy to use including changing the belt. Very happy with it.!!

Bought this for my Husband for Christmas as his old one that he had gave out on him after 32 years, not bad eh! He was so please when he opened it on Christmas day. His comments are well done Black & Decker at long last they have given a really generous cable which is now 283 cm long, where as his old one was 152 cm. he is very pleased with defector attachment and superior filter also the excellent speed controller which his old one was only one speed. great piece of equipment definitely recommend it good price too.

The first thing you must realise about this tool is that it is a POWER file, power being the operative word. it is supplied with some very coarse belts and if you use it on wood, boy does it file it!!! I renovate antique furniture and old musket guns. I wanted this file to use it to remove the top layer of old varnish and oil based finishes and rust from metal parts. I had the good sense to buy some 120 grit belts with it. these were the finest grit I could get on amazon, and I tested it first on some old bits of wood. good job I did cos it made a gouge in the wood in a split second. I cant emphasise too much you should NOT PRESS ON. I quickly learnt a technique that you should use the file as if you were tickling the wood with a feather, touch it very lightly, DO NOT PRESS ON. Let the belt do the work. If you touch the material very lightly it will work fantastically and the belt will last for ages. Even for metal you do not need much more pressure to remove rust. I used it to remove rust from old gun barrels and it worked great. It takes a bit of practise but well worth it. This will become a well used bit of kit in my workshop - wish I'd bought one ages ago. Oh by the way, did I say DON'T PRESS ON!

for anyone considering give the power file a gothis tool allowed me to do a job I probably will be able to finish.Unlike reviews relating to fine work on wood and using like sandpaperI give heavy duty cutting 2mm steel for grinding and really give it some wellyif you're doing up a car, and say rust turned up in the mot all around the rear suspension. so out with the welder and tools... welding is the easy bit.. then I drop the tank to weld petrol filler area and start hacking away at the rust with power toolsa few times during this job I wasn't sure what was holding it together but a slow and steady approach with axel stands and old tyres under the body. it heldBefore, I was using angle grinder and hand files and to lesser extent nibblerThese work and hand files while satisfying . the grinder is so loud needs ear protection (tell that to the guys grinding metal I saw in college)On the other hand the powerfile is not needed and if neighbours are a concern is better... the only sounds that bother me in summer is hearing some angle grinder in the street! (or in parliament)Anyway, the sparks produced are somewhat less as well. it gets into way more areas than the grinder makes for more precision job rare you reach for hand file. Grinder is always going to rule for cutting when you actually need to cut cleanly, but 1 inch wide, short 'cuts' in 1mm and general hacking is easily done. 2mm chassis it will grind and cut just about and cleans up welds that need flattening downthose blue zirconian bands are way better at ripping through metalwhy i'm now ordering another one is finding the end roller gives out before anything else, it may be in the instructions to grease this i don't know but this actually is a bearing with rollers exposed to a lot of heat. I will be greasing before each session from now onthey still a few years though before giving out,one handed operation is a lot safer than a grinder meaning you can simply hold a piece of metal and grind some without pliers just holding it

I bought this sander to tackle my 22 year old garden trellising, all together 5 2x2.5 metre panels. A great little machine that tackled this task with ease.

What a great machine, I have the old model which is still going after more than a decadeThis has variable speed and a turbo dust collection unit on the end which is very effectiveYou can also insert a vacuum hose into itQuite light and easy to useBelts are easily available and so much cheaper than they were originallyJust buy one nowJust buy one

Ein sehr praktisches Handwerkzeug zum guten Preis, gehört mit seiner Anwendungsvielfalt eigentlich in jede Werkstatt. Besonders das Absaugsystem ist für Arbeiten im Haus außerordentlich praktisch.

Eccellente, mi trovo benissimo leviga il legno senza alcun problema, bisogna avere la mano dolce, consigliato.

Just does what it needs to do.A bit under powered but that also saves you belts when pushing too hard.
