ASIN: B0007YZLS0Model: JSG-6DCCategory: Combination Disc & Belt Sanders
Overview
JET's step-up benchtop combo, with a 6 by 48 inch belt and a larger 12 inch disc driven by a 1-1/2 HP motor wired for dual 115V or 230V operation.
The larger disc and dual voltage motor put the JSG-6DC a tier above entry combo sanders like JET's own JSG-96, adding torque for sustained belt use and a wider disc face for bigger stock. Dual voltage wiring means it can run on a standard outlet or be switched to 230V where that circuit is available.
- 6 inch by 48 inch belt
- 12 inch sanding disc
- 1-1/2 HP motor
- 115V/230V dual voltage
Who it's for
Shops that lean on a combination sander regularly rather than reaching for it occasionally, and that may want the option to wire it to 230V.
Pros and cons
- 1-1/2 HP motor holds up under continuous use
- 12 inch disc covers wider stock than smaller benchtop combos
- Dual voltage 115V or 230V wiring
- Larger disc and motor add bulk versus entry benchtop combos
- Getting the 230V benefit requires a matching circuit
Performance notes
The 1-1/2 HP motor holds speed better under continuous belt use than the 3/4 HP entry models, and the 12 inch disc covers wider stock without repositioning the work. Dual voltage wiring lets it run on either a standard outlet or a 230V circuit.
