Westward 13P490 Pole Sander
The Westward 13P490 pole sander is built for drywall and plaster finishing on walls and ceilings. Its 48 in handle lets crews sand overhead sections without scaffolding. Aluminium head and wood pole construction withstand daily site use. Painters, tapers and remodelers will find it suited to large-area sanding tasks.
9 x 3-1/4 in sanding face
The 9 x 3-1/4 in sanding face covers broad stretches of joint compound in fewer passes. A 48 in handle provides reach for ceiling seams and high walls while keeping the operator on the floor. The tool runs out of reach on vaulted ceilings above the pole length or in tight corners where the head cannot pivot.
Replaces hand-held sanding blocks
Stepping up from a hand block eliminates the need to bend or climb for mid-wall sections. The longer pole reduces fatigue on whole-room jobs compared with shorter poles. The jump is not worth it for small patch repairs where a hand block is faster to manoeuvre.

Questions about this item
Will the 48 in handle reach high ceilings while I keep using my existing sanding pads?
The 48 in wood handle extends your reach for high walls and ceilings, and the 9 x 3-1/4 in aluminium head accepts standard drywall sanding sheets you already own.
How can I confirm the sander head is securely attached before I start sanding?
Check that the aluminium head sits firmly on the wood pole with no wobble, and that the clamping mechanism holds a 9 x 3-1/4 in sanding sheet flat against the surface.
Does the box include sanding sheets or only the pole and head?
The package contains the 13P490 pole sander with 48 in wood pole and 9 x 3-1/4 in aluminium head; sanding sheets are sold separately.
