Hello. I’m looking for the sanding plate on my sander model number 113.12570 with a 5/8“ bore. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Tnx!

I checked ereplacmentparts.com and it looks like that part is NLA. searspartsdirect.com had parts and models with that number, but I didn't see a sanding plate.
Do you have a photo of the sander and the part you need? It might help in a search.

This is it with the plate. The disc plate broke. I glued it but it wobbled IMG_0595.jpegand eventually broke again.

I'd expect that a bunch of other manufacturers used an equivalent part. I realize that doesn't help you, but if you can give a few more dimensions, someone here can verify if their Delta, etc, machine uses the same thing. It still might be NLA, but would give you a chance.

I believe that is a common Taiwanese sander sold under several names.
You may have better luck finding a used one for parts. There are a couple in my area.

Ok. The plate is 8” in diameter, the bore hole is 5/8 inches With a screw that needs an allen wrench to tighten. I believe it also fits model 6SFRT-5782. I hope this helps. Much tnx!

aluminum? take it to a local welding shop & see if they're interested in welding back together.
if you gave your (approximate) location someone here might be able to help with welding too.

I’m in Ft. Lauderdale. I think it is aluminum. Don’t know if anyone is close by.

@oldtoolgirl, If you think a 9" disk will work, I do have this cast iron version available.

FrankLee is correct, this 1 x 42” belt disc sander was sold by several companies. I have the Craftsman version and love it. All of these were clones of the Delta which was an evolution of the Belsaw belt sander. I was unable to locate the disc you are looking for in my short search; however, I did purchase the upper and lower belt guards from Grizzly last year and they were exact matches. Several other parts are still available from Grizzly if this helps.

The 113 prefix indicates the sander was made by the Emerson Electric Co. Here is a little info that may help.


Emerson Electric Manufacturing Co. was established in 1890 by John Wesley Emerson. In the beginning, they made electric motors and related products, such as switches. Over the years they added other products to their line, including desk fans and ceiling fans. Starting in about 1940, Emerson began selling their motors through Sears, Roebuck & Co. And starting in 1948 (and perhaps earlier) they made a few woodworking machines for Sears Roebuck. For example, the 1948 Craftsman catalog features the Model 100 tablesaw as "Emerson saws"; examples of this saw have model numbers beginning with 113, which corresponds to Emerson Electric Co. Most of the Craftsman woodworking machines at that time were made by King-Seeley Corp., however.

In 1962 Emerson bought all of King-Seeley Corp.'s design patents, tooling, and parts for Sears, Roebuck & Co. Craftsman and Dunlap lines. Emerson began production of machines in 1964.

Emerson lost their Sears contract around 1998, but they began making the Ridgid line of stationary power tools for Home Depot. The Emerson Tool Co. (a division of Emerson Electric Co.) no longer makes woodworking machines (they make shop vacuums), and the Ridgid brand woodworking machines are made elsewhere.

Emerson contact information: 314-553-2000 | www.emerson.com | 8000 West Florissant Ave, POB 4100, St Louis, MO 63136

Hey Frank. If I’m not successful getting mine repaired, I’ll check to see if you still have this one. Tnx!

If you are able to have this welded, you will probably need to have the face, where the sandpaper goes, machined on a lathe; the welding might warp it. It needs to be chucked inside the bore, where the shaft goes.
