Key Features
The 13mm electric belt sander from Silverline is ideal for descaling, sanding and polishing of welds, shaping mortises and joints and sanding tasks in difficult corners and hard-to-reach places. Designed for use on wood, metal and plastics, its 130mm long file arm has a maximum belt speed of 550m/min and is adjustable to the required working angle.
Featuring variable speed control via an easily accessible dial, you are able to select and change the speed of belt revolution in order to achieve a specific rate of removal and finish, depending on the task at hand and material you are working on. At the base of the file arm sits a tensioning / release screw which tightens or loosens the belt to improve performance, as well as making removal and replacement easy.
Dust extraction is possible during operation by connecting your method of suction to the adapter on the side of the tool, at the base of the file. Reviewers have commented on the good balance of this tool thanks to the in-line motor, rather than a more unstable side-positioned motor.
Compatible with 13 x 457mm belts of varying grit, including Silverline's (code 910232) for an assorted 5pce set. Supplied with this tool are two sanding belts - 1 x 80 grit and 1 x 120 grit - so you can get started straight away.

Bout this tool to help me sand down an old oak park bench. Looked at the the other options available & lots were well outside my budget. This was the best value, really versatile & can work in any position. And with a 3 year guarantee it can''t be beat. If you need power belt file this is the one to get, a graet piece of kit.

Powerful, especially with high grade sanding belts. I use it for renovations and repairs of wooden furniture, stairs, door, etc. in lacquer, paint and wood filler removal. It really works. I''ve used it also for sharpening and rust removal from metal tools. Perfectly works in narrow areas and gaps. Suggestion and tip for Silverline: why not to produce versatile heads for it?
Summary: best for price in woodworking, but also in light metalworks.

Bought to help with my DIY & Craft projects, this has been the best bit of kit I have yet! It is lightweight, will get into nooks and crannies (which helps with the project AND ease of use as it is so light, great for my Arthritic hands!), but still packs a bit of punch where and when needed!

Needed a tool to remove rust from car body i was restoring. Although this is one of the cheapest on the market its by no means the the bottom of the pile. Well built and easy to use it made short work of the jobs in hand.
Another satisfying point is when you register your purchase you get a three year guarantee which is a lot more than you get with the more expensive tools out there. Silverline obviously have a lot more faith in their tools and manufacturing than the big names so this gives you piece of mind that you made the correct choice.

I''m currently restoring a 1969 Hillman Imp, which obviously has required some welding! Some of the welds were in hard to reach areas to grind down, which is where this belt file was needed. It''s so narrow and the arm is completely adjustable, so I can reach all those hard to reach areas and grind my welds down flush for a professional finish. Very impressed with this tool, happy to recommend.

I''ve had 2 iterations of this device and both are exceptional. The earlier version with the toggle power switch and the latter with a more conventional trigger and button lock work really well for different reasons and useful for a multitude of jobs. The tensioner on both iterations work well with no wandering. The newer updated version has a protective rim just above the working belt adding extra user safety. Both units can angle for those hard to get to areas of work and both have dust ports which in a small working environment are valuable. Overall the Silverline power file is a must have for any budding DIYer and makes a useful addition to any workshop.

I love my new silverline power file! It''s a quality tool which feels solid and very well made, sturdy but not too heavy. It fits nicely in your hands, and can be used one-handed with ease. All controls fall readily to hand and the belts are extremely simple to change. I love the way there is no big motor hanging off the side of the machine which makes it great in tight spaces, and the pivoting head is just great and easy to use. I''ve wanted one of these for a long time and looked at loads, but I am so pleased to have found and purchased this Silverline one - it''s exactly what I was looking for.

Recommended by a friend, I bought a 260w Power Belt File. I am a keen DIYer and carve wooden fish as a hobby. I already have a standard width belt sander, but for delicate and accurate removal of wood, it is too crude and impossible to get into tight corners and use the edge of the belt. The belt file is the perfect solution to my problems and makes accessing those difficult areas a breeze. The file is lightweight, making it comfortable for prolonged use, and plenty powerful for the task. Changing belts is quick and simple. This product has speeded up my work and drastically improved the finish of my carvings. Wish I''d had one years ago. Highly recommended !!!

After my recent purchase of this item I’m just wondering why I haven’t had one before. Easy to use and very quick to replace the sanding strips. Does the job with metal or wood and a pleasure to use. There is a plastic hoover attachment but presumably this would then make it cumbersome. The only negative i can come up with is if you’re using the tool for cleaning or sanding an internal radius when you have to take your time and let the tool do all the work with no pressure as this is how the belts are removed, by pressing on the end.

I purchased my power belt file to help me. I am an 85 year old man who cannot cut his own toe nails, so I needed assistance. This tool although big and heavy, does the job. However, if you made a much smaller version with 13mm by 10 cm belt based on a small pistol drill, I think you could have a best seller on your hands.

By: Phil
2019-07-26T00:00:00
This worked perfectly straight from the box. you have to be careful to keep the head moving as it does sand notches in the wood if you are not careful. I need to sand garden benches and this was the only way to strip varnish between the slats. I was worried that the sandpaper would track off as happened to me with a belt floor sander but this was never a problem. My only concern was that the motor seemed to get very hot but it comes with a 3 year warranty so the manufacturers really stand behind their products. Great value for money.

Bought this based on the slimline profile unlike that of a better-known brand. An owner of the competing product from the better-known brand warned me about belts snapping. I''ve used the Silverline for almost a month now and not had a single belt break. The only thing that happens is the belt can slip from the drive but it''s very easy to put back in place and slips only occur if I repeatedly catch the edge of the belt.
This tool has saved me a lot of manual sanding. Replacement belts are cheap and last well.

By: totalguy
2019-06-14T00:00:00
This is a great little tool for all sorts of jobs. its not bulky and doesn''t have a motor sticking out the side like the more expensive brands do. its more versatile and you can get into 90 degree corners because the belt overlaps the metal slightly.
it has 6 speed settings and ive mostly used the slow one i used it for a few different things including doing stair rails and metal filing and de burring. great tool for the money doesnt seem to heat up much either. its adjustable so you can put it at quite a few different angles.
the only down side for me is i would have liked a slower low speed something like 280rpm and max out at 500rpm but other than that it does the job just fine i wish i had one many years ago but they have only been around recently.
i highly recommend this tool for the price its great and i would also recommend purchasing a belt cleaning block these will make your sanding belts last a lot longer silverline sell 2 of them these are the product codes 224688 and the bigger one is 218490. these are great especially when you are sanding paint and wood it unclogs the belt nicely.

I bought the Sander for my dad because his previous other brand had broken. He makes walking sticks and does a lot of intricate sanding work as they are very detailed and then sold. He loves this and it does the job perfectly. Saves a lot of time instead of manually sanding and the replacement pads are not expensive, though I think the one it came with will last ages. Really good price, high quality, excellent service and speedy delivery. Would highly recommend and will definitely buy from them again for my husband and dad.

Incredible value for money. I bought this tool to sand between the rungs of my teak garden bench seat. The seat had become very black an there was narrow access between the rungs and the support timbers. Using this belt file allowed me to return the bench to near new condition very quickly. The tool is very light and easy to use. Surpassed my expectations and I thoroughly recommend it.

I bought this to grind down some welds on a car that I am restoring. It does the job nicely, not as fast a flap wheel on the angle grinder but much more controllable. However I find that I have been using it for other jobs too. This is may first power file and I wish I had bought one sooner.
The tool seems to be of pretty good quality. I have managed to drop it a couple of times and it is fine. It looks like it will stand up to typical DIY abuse.
On the downside the belts do wear out pretty fast so you need to keep a good stock of them.

Why pay more! Cheap doesn’t always mean Cheap.
As I have found with the silverline products they are a well priced and of good quality, I was in the building trade for 35 years so have always purchased the more expensive brands.
I purchased the Power belt file to clean back rust and to clean back to bare metal for welding the underside of my old Transit and it hasn’t missed a beat, it can get into all the tight spots that a Angle grinder can’t reach, it has plenty of power and with its adjustable head makes it even easier to get to the awkward bits, looking forward to trying it on some carpentry projects.
My next purchase will be the hand held Drum Sander which also looks like a very useful tool.
If you register it online you can get a 3yr warranty so can’t ask more than that.

I bought this to do some work on my T3 camper van, which needed a neat job done on a sill replacement. It''s been a revelation - taken hours off the time it would usually take me to prepare sections for welding and remove spots of rust in seconds that would usually take a lot longer. The tool is well built and comfortable in the hands, and works as it should do. The only slight downside is that it''s easy to accidentally adjust the speed control in use (usually in the downwards direction), but this is a minor gripe on an otherwise well thought out and built tool.

Ich hatte für knapp 40€ keine allzu großen Erwartungen, aber der zehnfache Preis bei Bosch war mir dann doch zu heftig! Umso positiver überrascht war ich über die Qualität, Ausführung und Stabilität des Silverstorm-Schleifers! Sogar Drehzahlregelung ist vorhanden, damit hätte ich bei diesem Preis wirklich nicht gerechnet. Das Gerät macht einen absolut wertigen und stabilen Eindruck und bewährt sich auch im täglichen Einsatz. Und mal ganz ehrlich: Selbst wenn das Teil nur die 3 Jahre Garantie überstehen sollte (was ich mir bei normalem Heimwerkergebrauch nicht vorstellen kann), dann kann ich bis zu 10 neue Geräte kaufen für den Kaufpreis eines "Profigerätes" in blau! Und mehr als Schleifen kann das Profigerät auch nicht! Also absolute Empfehlung von mir für den Silverline-Fingerschleifer! Und nicht erschrecken beim Auspacken: Es ist kein "falscher" UK-Stecker montiert, sondern nur ein genialer Adapter, der sich sehr leicht entfernen läßt zur Nutzung des Euro-Steckers!

Whenever I do a job I always ''budget'' for the tools I don''t yet have. A friend of mine was using one of these a few days back and I was so impressed I went out and bought one, plus a pack of belts. So far I have had to clean rust off steel, grind hardened epoxy and GRP out of a difficult small space and sand down areas for epoxy work in difficult tight corners. What a tool; it turned a full day''s work into, literally, less than an hour. For someone who served an apprenticeship and time on the tools, and who is now retired and enjoying doing this stuff, this tool is a very welcome addition to my (quite eclectic) collection of useful implements.

This came as a surprise as it''s really quite compact compared to the B & D versions I have had for years (2 of and just about still going...gasp, gasp..) that lack the balance of this model as the motor is within its sleek body and not as the B & D models where its slung on the side and makes for a clumsy device considering the narrow working area it uses up. I have had Silverline products now over many years, since they started I would think, so it was interesting to see if things have moved on with their current range. You get two belts supplied with this model and the first thing you notice with this sander is how light it is, falls and fits well in the hand almost like a decent sized torch, with placed at the rear out of harms way, a ‘on/off’ switch (naturally) plus a wheel type speed control that is more than ample as I found on the lowest setting for finishing some MDF off. It has a decent length of cable, plus the adjustable up & down ''blade'' or sanding area is handy for getting into assorted areas and could be a boon to model makers, plus a small but adequate owners manual and it comes with a 3 year warranty (!) by registering on-line which I did natch. In use it works well, quite comfortable to use in fact its streets, or roads even, in front of the B & D models as outlined above but with a 3 year warranty perhaps the makers have faith in it but so far it works wonderfully well. Its well designed by somebody who knows their stuff and quite reasonably priced :-) Rating? – 5 Stars based on use so far!

I am in the process of re-fitting an old salvaged boat and needed to get into very tight corners to smooth down fibre glass repairs - this machine is exactly what I needed and carried out the work more than satisfactory I DO recommend this machine very highly. Regards M L Watson

This is a neat precision tool for those hard to get a places with other tools or time consuming hand work. I like the dust extractor facility as well and the straight line handle/sander belt for ease of working.

For the money this is a good tool, though lacks power compared with some other similar tools that can be bought. Slim design means you can get into narrow spaces where others cant. does the job but takes a little longer. Adjustable arm makes it that more versatile for any job.

Having three different types of sander I still struggled to get into those tight spaces and had to manage with sandpaper wrapped around a wooden spoon!
I was a little sceptical but took the plunge and bought this Silverline power file, after all if it didn''t do the job it wouldn''t break the bank.
Let me say this..... I now couldn''t be without this brilliant tool!! It simply does everything I needed it for and more!
Easy belt change, powerful, precise and easy in the hand. I''m more than happy I went for this power file rather than a much more expensive option!
The Silverline brand provide quality at the right price yet again!

It arrived in excellent time frame (next day) and is well made. The variable speed and angle are great features. The machine is noisy so extended use will require ear protection. Take care and practice if not used before to avoid excess material removal as can be quite aggressive if not careful.

2017-05-21T00:00:00
At that price, what more could one ask? Does its job smoothly. Its limited power has to be taken into account, but it suffices for most jobs I have in mind. Its slight bulk is certainly a plus, as is its light weight. Durability is probably limited, but the other machinrs of this type I''ve had did not last very long anyway, at twice (or more) the price. I''d buy it again with no hesitations.

I already own several Silverline products and have found them to be excellent and have just received my Silverstorm Power Belt file and it is brilliant! It is very robust, powerful and most of all just the job for getting into corners and all sorts of places that are hard to reach. In operation it is easy to use due to the adjustability of the head and the variable speed control. Its just great and I have been surprised at the amount of uses that I have put it to. Guaranteed for three years, great price and belts easily and cheap to obtain. Superb.

I''ve had this little belt sander only for a couple of weeks but so far I''m really impressed. Easy to change belts, plenty powerful enough and big bonus is it''s compact form - very easy to hold and control in one hand leaving other free for stability / added control. This makes it a great item and was the reason I chose it ahead of BnD rival product. Plus it is much better value to do the same job. Dust extraction isn''t great but no big deal for The work I tend to do.

I bought this belt file primarily to use as a sharpening tool. It performed better than expected, and now we have very sharp knives in our kitchen. Then onto my gardening tools which are now back in tip top condition. It performs well on small sanding jobs and is quite versatile. Overall, I''m pleased with the purchase. It''s not a beast, but a very good addition to the tool box.

I recently bought this item after looking for more expensive ones (150-400 euro).
I do not need to use daily, so I decided to save money and try this Silverstorm.
I was a nice surprise: well packed, comes with instruction manual and two belts (spare belts 457x13 mm are widely available and quite cheap because shared with other belt grinders'' brands).
The power tool is well built, nice soft handgrip, part of the belt gear is made of aluminium, part is sturdy plastic. I thing for a non-professional like me, will last very long.
I measure the belt speed with a laser speed meter, and it is 550 mt/min as declared from manufacturer. The power cord is sturdy and safe, and comes with double connector UK or SHUKO (you need just to remove the UK/EU adapter unscrewing just one screw: easy).

Don''t know how i got by without one of these great tools before. Works very well for cleaning up welds on car bodywork - so much more precise than using an angle grinder. Easily gets into the small places that a grinder cannot reach. Easy to use, very easy to change the belts, and i like the way you can adjust the angle of the belt - making it easy to find a comfy position to get at the job in hand.

Purchased this a week ago, out the box it looked well built, it felt well balanced and on turning it on, found it was quiet to use. I cut some rough half lap joints and finished with this tool, using the supplied 120 grit belt. With no pressure, just allowing the belt to do its job, the joints were smooth in no time. I have used this to shape timber to a profile, I have used it to dress poor cutting on timber. In all, what a tool, very happy, registered for warranty online was a simple process, and at the price I believe this cannot be beaten! Thanks Silverline!

I got this as a Christmas present and used it for the first time over the weekend on my 67 Beetle. What a great little tool this is. Used it to straighten the section I had found out and it was quick and neat. It also removed the paint from the section to be welded. I will definitely be using it more often.

The Silverstorm 260W Power Belt File is a versatile all round detail sander and de-burrer which can be used in restricted places. The belt is liable to be displaced when using the pointed end at the highest speed, however the belt remains in place when used gently at the lower speeds. (The belt is easily replaced by plunging the point onto a hard surface, the finger of the file then clicks into the open position to allow the belt to be replaced and then is tensioned by use of the release button. The tool would benefit from a positive belt lock on the release button which would prevent the pressure on the point displacing the belt.) In conclusion this is a fine tool which would be perfect with a positive belt lock.

I am an engineer and i saw a power file many years ago an thought at the price of it ya could buy a van load of hand files for the same money so when I saw silverlines at a low price a thought I would give it a try I a using it to file out holes in steel an I can honestly say I''ll never go back to a hand file unless I can''t fit this machine in somewhere but it''s fast to use easy to change the belts an they are also at a sense able price so if your a engineer or just use hand files to do your work stop an think hours saved an let this machine do the hard work for you
By: Chris A

I''ve owned and used one of these for two years now and it''s great!
It''s reasonable priced and has a 3 year guarantee. It can get through the belts quite quickly, so get a fair few or you''ll run out, but they''re fairly cheap.
I''ve used it on wood and metal and it''s great on both.
I would definately recommend it - I''m nothing to do with silverline and getting nothing for this review.

I was not expecting very much from this tool due to the very low price and relatively small motor. I have however been very pleasently surprised buy its build quality and performance . The longditudal motor and slim profile differs from many other similar products and makes this tool surprisingly versatile in tight spaces. I''ve so far used it primarily for dressing mig welds on car bodywork and it has proved very capable. A friend borrowed it for the afternoon to try out on a floor he was sanding to see if it was any use in getting into the tight corners such as up to skirting boards that his belt sander could not reach. He ordered one the same day!
I''m sure its not worth comparing with the equivilant bosch or makita etc but within its limits and for occasional use I realy can''t fault it.
I don''t know how long it will last but I did registar (after a struggle) for the three year guarentee which if honoured would make this tool outstanding value for money.

I recommend it for any one who does sanding.

I bought this tool to sand some recessed areas I could not reach with my other power sanders or by hand. It did an excellent job getting right into corners and close to edges. The adjustable handle made access very easy with no motor sticking out the side there was very little restriction to its use. The quick easy tool less belt change is also a bonus.
I have now found may uses for this sander not only for prep for decorating but have also used it in restoring my classic car sanding welds back (using an emery belt.

I bought this to remove quite a lot of rust from the box sections on the underside of my car. It was ideal because some of the rust was in quite a bit of hard to reach places.This file worked a treat .I have also used it to ease the bottom of my shed door as it was sticking and it was easy with the door still hung. Very easy to use and changing the sanding belts is very easy. I would recommend this tool. Excellent.
