Ryobi bearing cap replacement
Thanks to you folks, my Ryobi sander is back up and running smoothly. I am a lady in my late 60's and this was an easy repair. Thank you for your service.

High quality part!
Very affordable part that fixed my orbital sander - much cheaper than buying a new tool and with the videos available, replacement was easy!

I wish everything were this easy
After going to your website, finding the part, and viewing the instructional video I was seamlessly able to order the part and repair my orbital sander (which had temporarily turned into a disc sander). Thank you.

Bearing cap assembly
Arrived earlier than targeted, fit well. Would have preferred just the bearing as the aluminum race was still usable. Happy to have my sander back up and running.

great value and service.
They were the exact parts I was looking for and fit like the original. Ordering was made easier with the detailed schematic. I will look here first if the need arises in the future.

Good sander, but disc suddenly started running double-speed, and would bog down when I tried to sand something.

Tool Type
Sander
Difficulty
Easy
Time
Less than 15 minutes
Tools Used
Screwdriver, Two Torx bits were required for the newer-model sander.
Parts Used
Four screws fasten the hook & loop sanding disk to the bearing cap assembly, then a single screw (with wide washer) holds that assembly to the central shaft.
(I have two of these Ryobi sanders -- the older one has cross-head "Phillips" screws, while the newer one has Torx screws.)
The original bearing cap assembly was noticeably seized.
Replace with new bearing, then screw on the single central screw with washer, followed by the sanding disk and its four screws.
Really, a very simple repair. (I bought an extra bearing cap assembly, as my sander's motor looks to be still going strong and may last another five years.)

Removed the 4 Philips screws holding the hook-and-loop pad to the sander. Then removed the single screw holding the old bearing cap assembly in place. Threw that old thing away (of course kept the screw and washer). Cleaned the sander with a bristle brush while it was partially disassembled, put this new piece on, an wah-lah! Sands like new again.

The sander spun at same speed as the motor. The bearing was frozen, so replacing it brought the sander back to performing properly.
