this hook and loop thing, comes with the sander?

The hook and loop is the system used to hold the sandpaper to the sander. It's much like velcro. My complaint about this tool turns out to be unwarranted because upon closer inspection, the sandpaper actually separated leaving the hook and loop system intact. Of course giving me the impression that the sander would no longer attach to sandpaper. Once I figured out what happened, I had already ordered a replacement disk which is now stored in the bag with my sander--in case I ever need to replace it. I love this tool. I makes my attempt to be a carpenter/woodworker much easier. Unfortunately, I'm only fair at what I attempt but is certainly isn't this tool's fault. Highly recommend purchasing this.

Hook and loop is another name for velcro. The base of the sander has the hook side and each sanding disc has the loop part. You just line up the dust holes and stick it on! They work great. Discs are available in many different grits and are available on Amazon, HD, Lowes and most hardware or woodworking stores.

Velcro is a registered and trademarked name. Kind of like Styrofoam. That is why they call it Hook and Loop.

just pick up a pack of 10 or 25 pads for cheap. I bought several packs real cheap at a local flea market.

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

it's basically velcro. The sander has the "hooks" and the paper pads have the material on the back to hook to.

Ours included the hook. It also states on the box that the hook is included.

It comes in two boxes, one for the sander and one for the base. It does not take a lot of time to put them together.

Hi Sophia, The Bosch 3727 DEVS sander takes a six hole sanding disk. I don't know if the eight holes are in the right place to match the sander. Sorry it took so long to answer. I kept forgetting to look when I went to the shop. I am very happy with the sander. It was a good choice for me. Good luck.

No it doesn't but this is a very nice sander. Easy dust collection bag. Extra long cord. Flat surface for mounting is convenient.

The sander comes with a hole maker. Just put the sandpaper on the sander and place it on top of the hole maker. Very easy to do. On a side note, this sander doesnt collect much dust in its bag anyway.

The one I have came with the adheasive pad, I havent seen an 8in. pad that was hook & loop, or any 8 in. hook & loop disqs eather, but it is as good a machine as a National Detroit gear drive sander, and at way less the cost, Amazon is a great market place, I am so happy with everything I have bought through there store.

The sander does not operate in a circular motion...for that you would want to consider a Random Orbital Sander

Yes, the sanding pad/paper attaches to the sanding disk like "Velcro". It is a hook and eye setup, and works well. I have had Makita and Porter Cable palm sanders (1/4 sheets)for years, but I like this better because of the variable speed control. Good luck with you choice

No, not Velcro. You need the self adhesive type of sanding disc for this sander.

Yes, it comes with sandpaper installed already, about 100 grit but no extras. I hope this has answered your question.

Yes, this is the one that comes with the silver loop. The loops are kinda big though.

Yes. it comes with the point on the bottom,however I would have ordered the beach sand extender as our umbrella flew almost away.

This item comes with the drill attachment. The neat thing is that you can get other attachments (a sander is one) for this device.

Some of the older reviews mentioned one, but it looks like it does not currently. I just took a 3/16 nut driver to a belt sander and made my own.

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.
