Why does sandpaper on my Shop fox W1828 Sander clog quickly?
- BbrookssabrinaAug 8, 2025
Sandpaper on your Shop fox Sander might be clogging quickly or burning due to several reasons. The sandpaper grit may be too fine for the job, so replace it with a coarser grit. If the workpiece is too moist, allow it to dry out. The sanding depth could be too aggressive; reduce it or install coarser sandpaper. Paint, varnish, pitch, or other coatings loading up the sandpaper can also cause this; install a coarse grit sandpaper, or strip the coating off before sanding. Finally, sanding a soft workpiece can contribute to clogging; either use different stock or accept the need to clean/replace discs frequently.
