Or, had anybody done this successfully with what pad?** A: Huh? **Q: Can this be used as a polisher?** A: Yes, this sander can be used as a polisher. However, you must be very careful; this tool has tremendous power. Start by doing a polishing test on an item that you don't mind messing-up. **Q: Is the extra grip detachable?** A: Yes, the grip simply screws off the body. Also, the body has two threaded holes for attaching the grip: one for right-handed use and the other for left-handed. **Q: What's the difference between this and the D26451?** A: This one is not random orbit, like the D26451. It also has a more powerful motor, but I find the D26456 to be the best sander. Definitely buy one with a variable speed, like D26453K over the D26451. I returned this model quickly and rely on D26456 for woodworking and home improvement where I need a nice finish. This model definitely didn't come close to meeting my needs. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ works well , would recommend it *by on Reviewed in Canada 30 April 2026* Works well, much more powerful than other sanders and would recommend it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Must for Sanding *by on Reviewed in the United States 2 April 2026* Excellent power, significant time saving ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Herramienta con mucha potencia *by on Reviewed in Mexico 1 November 2021* Antes de comprarla tenía mis dudas de cómo fuincona y para qué trabajos se tenía que utilizar, pero por desafortuna, solamente encontré 2 videos sobre la maquina y no resolvieron mis dudas, así que dejaré mi experiencia. Es una muy buena herramienta, pero para lo que está hecha, yo la he usado solo para madera, pero para lijar como tal no, funciona para desbastar de forma muy fuerte la madera, tipo cortezas, dar cantos a maderas fuertes, pero para lijar no, quita mucha madera y los lijadoros no son parejos, tampoco puedes usar para lijar toda la lija, solamente los extremos de la lija, justo por la potencia. Entonces, si, es una excelente herramienta para los trabajos para los que está hecha la herramienta, en resumen, es como un taladro adecuado para ponerle una lija, pero con mas control que un taladro, pero básicamente es eso. ## Frequently Bought Together - DEWALT Rotary Sander, Variable Speed, Dust Shroud, 5-Inch (DWE6401DS) - POTUINOM 165 PCS 5 Inch Sanding Discs,Round Hook and Loop Sandpaper for Random Orbital Sander 40 60 80 120 150 240 320 400 600 Grit - Aiyard 5-Inch 8-Hole Hook and Loop Sanding Discs 220-Grit Random Orbit Sandpaper, 100-Pack --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.lk/products/275219035-dewalt-rotary-sander-variable-speed-dust-shroud-5-inch-dwe6401ds](https://www.desertcart.lk/products/275219035-dewalt-rotary-sander-variable-speed-dust-shroud-5-inch-dwe6401ds) --- *Product available on Desertcart Sri Lanka* *Store origin: LK* *Last updated: 2026-09-22*
