JET IBGB-248 Eight-Inch Grinder and 2 × 48 Belt Sander
JET IBGB-248 578248 combines an eight-inch grinding wheel station with a 2 × 48-inch belt-sanding station. The sanding bracket can be arranged horizontally or vertically, which changes the required working footprint. A single-phase 1HP motor and removable platen make this a distinct choice from a two-wheel bench grinder.
