5 Inch 8 Hole Hook and Loop Replacement Sander Pad for Craftsman 315112170, 315116940, 315116950, 315112180, 315279870 Random Orbit Sanders

It was super simple to replace old head.

Only used it once so not sure about the longevity but seems to be good quality. As for fit and adhesion it is great. When through about 10 sheets of sandpaper with no issue. The last one felt as secure as the first. Great replacement for original.

As a replacement backing for my Craftsman 5 orbital sander, this was priced well and fit perfectly. The four original screws fit well to mount it. I did notice that after using it for about 20 minutes off and on, I lifted it off of the piece of wood that I was sanding and the sand paper shot off onto the work bench. No others did this, and I cant say it wasnt the sand-paper manufacturers fault. So far, this replacement backing works great!

Value & quality

Installed easily. I was afraid my old sander was a goner when the pad came apart trying to remove a disk. This made it good as new. Unable to find it locally.

Works fine

Great replacement at the right price but wroong choice for me. Make sure your model is mentioned as I measured screw holes an it fits perfect, but the diameter of the center, of the part that goes between the pad and the base is bigger and it wont fit my model. I have a model 320-39592. I will have to figure out a way of finding tha specific part or purchase the right one this time as I focused on screw holes measurements. Screw holes fit perfect, its just that part that is bigger than the hole on the back of the pad.

Technically they will work but they are really really cheap made. They have no metal where the screws go through they just some kind of wood material with laminate covering them.

It didn’t fit
