Looks and works like the original Great price. Factory price is to high.

Finding anything in Amazon using Amazons search is a frustrating experience with a barrage of marketing incorrect products. I eventually rolled the dice and bought this product for my Craftsman Random Orbital Sander 315.116040 (see first three original parts photos) Be aware, this product **does not fit** the 315.116040 without modification. I didnt buy tools for show so I DIYd the sander pad by drilling the holes out to be ovals using the same diameter drill bit and using the side of the drill bit but to lengthen each hole radially outwards, very carefully. Each hole is roughly 1.5x long by 1.0x wide (do not widen!). Then I attached it to the Craftsman sander without issue. For the money I paid for this ($7.79) it was not worth my time to return the part. Based upon the immediate need, it was worth the time to try and modify, which worked out nicely this time.

Worked perfectly on my old Crafsman sander - saved me from having to buy a new one. Shipped quickly, works great.

When I loaned my sander to a friend the old pad came off. This replacement was easy. My friend has sanded some table tops with it.

Exactly what I needed and so easy to replace.

This was a replacement pad for my Craftsman Orbital Sander model 315 112170. It fit the sander, but after about 1 hour of sanding the rubber ring and hard plastic on the inside of the pad broke and came flying out of the sander. Item seemed cheap for the price paid. Going to see if they will honor the warranty. I do not recommend this product.

Good replacement just didnt fit my craftsman butbthat was more my fault than anything.

This was a terrible waste of money. It is either out of round, out of balance or the mounting holes were drilled in the wrong place. Shook my sander so bad I couldn’t use it. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!

Purchased to replace the pad on my hyper tough orbital sander. The holes didn’t line up. Had to drill the into an oval to fit. And had to drill four extra holes to mount on orbital. Once installed it worked as it should.
