Mandrel for Sanding Drums

AFTER USING MY OLD MANDREL FOR 35+ YEARS, IT WAS TIME FOR A NEW ONE !!!! WHEN IT ARRIVED, I CHUCKED IT INTO MY "DREMEL MODEL 3000"& SPUN IT @ LOW SPEED. WAS SO PERFECTLY BALANCED, IT'S SPIN WAS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DETECT. SCREWED ON A NEW SANDING DRUM & RESULTS WERE EXACTLY THE SAME. MOUNTING SHANK LENGTH IS IDEAL AS IT ALLOWS THE MANDREL TO MOUNT INSIDE THE DREMEL, ALL THE WAY TO THE TOOL'S SHOULDER. DID NOTICE THE LENGTH OF THE DRUM TIP WAS JUST A SMIDGE TOO LONG & JUST SLIGHTLY PROTRUDED BEYOND THE LENGTH OF THE SANDING DRUM...MAY HAVE TO GRIND OFF THE TIP JUST SLIGHTLY. VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE OVERALL QUALITY OF MY PURCHASE---OORAH & SEMPER-FI !!!!!!

AFTER 35 YRS. OF HARD SERVICE, MY ORIGINAL MANDREL HAD BECOME WAY OUT OF BALANCE & REFUSED TO SPIN "TRUE" IN MY DREMEL TOOL. SO I ORDERED THIS ONE AS IT'S REPLACEMENT. WELL MADE & OF HIGH-QUALITY STEEL. OORAH & SEMPER-FI !!!!!
