Ubeaut Rotary Sander
Have used it two years now, love it, use it all the time. Cutting is getting better so I can now start at higher grits The foam portion is now starting to give away, and I would like to replace that part. Can a replacement head just be popped in, maybe even put in a smaller one? I assume it unthreads from the shaft?

Maybe the solution could be posted in here as I would like a new head for mine too... handles fine.
It's only a mistake if you don't learn from it.

I've got the vermec version and have gone through a few of the foam heads. Carbatec sells them for around the $20 mark for the 50mm size. The pads just screw onto the shaft.

Thanks Jim
I can't find the replacement sanding pads for the Ubeaut rotary sander on the Carbatec site from this side of the ditch

This is what I was referring to.
Sanding Pads : CARBA-TEC
Hope it helps.

Farnk , how do they fit onto your Ubeaut rotary sander.
Do you have an adaptor of some sort ?

U Beaut do not have interchangeable or replacement heads for their rotary sanders.
Usually by the time the head is worn so is the rest.
There is replacement velcro for the head if that is needed
The sanding heads refered to above are for power sanding.Jim Carroll

Yes , I can see that ,
Usually by the time the head is worn so is the rest.
It would be helpful to the consumer if Ubeaut informed the public that there are no spare parts fro their much vaunted rotary sander.
$90 is far too much to pay for this disposable item .

Where are you paying $90.00 only $66.00 here and a bit less for you over the ditch
