It's 9" round paper with approximately 1" diameter hole in the center. It can be purchased on amazon or I get mine at the Home Depot in the tool rental section. It also requires a foam pad behind the paper. Both are readily available paper comes in many grits. I like 80 grit the best. I guess it depends on how smooth you apply the joint compound.

You can either buy the Porter Cable sanding disks for this which I personally have never used, or, what I do use are after market 9" hook and loop pads as are 9" hook and loop sanding discs in many grits which are significantly lower in cost than the Porter Cable original equipment sanding discs with integral pad.

As best as I can tell. Porter-Cable no longer makes the 7010/7812 vacuum that they used to make to go with this sander. Dewalt makes a comparable 10 gallon vacuum that also has the auto off/on feature that the P-C vacuum had. It also has the 2 stage filtration, and is available various places and on Amazon.

Amazon online carries it - also Menards (a building supply store in the Midwest) carries a Norton brand made for the Porter-Cable 7800 sander. Other building supply stores across the nation, including the "do it yourself" type of store, would probably carry the Norton brand. As far as I know, they offer a medium grit and a fine grit.

You should be able to go to Porter Cable parts and then enter orbital sander and model number. Hope you find it.

I don't know. The one I bought worked perfectly and I had no issues with the sanding screen. Even my contractor was sold on the item.

Do you mean the pad that you clamp the sand paper to? I have not worn mine out as of yet but to my knowledge you have to order it from Dewalt.

When I was shopping I remember one sander came only with the sander while the one I bought came with the polishing attachments and case. Note: I think they both cost the same too.

You get a wood saw blade and a sanding pad and paper. This is an awesome tool I found it very useful on a remodel job I just finished.

The various sized sanding drums and filler plates comes with it. Basically everything you need to plug it in and start using it. I like mine a lot! It's a nice tool for a very reasonable price.

The hook & loop is the sandpaper type u use for the sander. the sandpaper is like velcro that just sticks to the sander. this is a very nice sander

Obviously Home Depot and Lowes will carry the bulk of what you will need for your project, but if you have a more non-standard size or grit that you are looking for check out: http://www.aaabrasives.com/. If that still doesn't get you what you need, Google the make & model of your sander and look for its specifications: this will tell you exactly what you need.

It doesn't use sand paper. It has a drum style blade you adjust to the depth you want to shave off the wood.

It is the whole pad. It's a sandwich of hard plastic, foam and Velcro. It attaches to the sander in place of the old pad using the same screws.

Yes. I bought it when I remodeled my kitchen last year. I was surprised and pleased with the performance. I ordered a box of assorted grit paper when I ordered the sander. Well worth the money!

Yes...There are many assortments of sand paper from Bosh and you can use other brands as well. I like the Bosh paper best so far. The Adjustable speed also is easy to use.

The rigid oscillating edge belt/ spindle sander is worth checking too I have one and it really is worth every cent on wood I've never used it on metal. Which ever one you choose it's important to get the right sand paper

I think there might be one available but I don't believe it came with the sander.

You have to buy pre-cut sandpaper disks. any brand will do as long as it fits.
