1/2" x 24" Air Belt Sander
This Chicago Pneumatic CP5080-4200D24 air belt sander runs at 20000 rpm with a 0.5 hp motor. It accepts a 1/2 in wide by 24 in long belt for general-duty sanding and finishing tasks. The composite housing and aluminium handle keep the tool lightweight for extended use. A lever throttle provides variable speed control for different materials.
Best for tight-access sanding jobs
Technicians working in confined areas will value the 15 3/8 in overall length and rear exhaust that directs air away from the workpiece. The 1/4 in NPT inlet and 3/8 in minimum hose size suit standard shop supply lines. Shops needing wider belts or lower free speeds for heavy stock removal should consider other configurations.
20000 rpm free speed decides fit
The 20000 rpm free speed determines material removal rate and surface finish quality. At 90 psi required pressure the tool delivers 10.8 average CFM at 15 second run time and 21.6 CFM at full load. Verify your compressor can sustain this flow before purchase.

Questions about this item
What compressor output do I need to run the CP5080-4200D24 at 20000 rpm?
Supply 90 psi and at least 21.6 CFM at full load; the tool averages 10.8 CFM over a 15-second run.
Will my existing 3/8 in air hose work with the 1/4 in NPT inlet on this sander?
Yes — the minimum hose size is 3/8 in, so your hose fits; use a 1/4 in NPT fitting to connect.
How can I confirm the sander is hitting its rated speed after setup?
With 90 psi supplied, the motor should run freely at 20000 rpm; listen for smooth rear exhaust and steady belt tracking.
