SPINDLE / SANDER

Workshop tools

Sanding sleeve cost calculator

Compare abrasive packs by usable sleeve count and delivered cost. Account for mixed packs containing sizes or grits you will not use.

Pack A costs less per usable sleeve

A: $1.67 · B: $2.50

Usable count must be at least one and no greater than the pack count. This compares acquisition cost only, not abrasive life or quality. Defaults are examples; use current quotes and count only suitable sizes and grits.
