The Shop Vac Hand Sander part # 9198000 is an excellent accessory for proactively collecting dust from sanding. The Shop Vac Hand Sander uses standard sandpaper and a screen to sand drywall or other surfaces while vacuuming the dust from sanding simultaneously. The hand sander works with any Shop Vac wet/dry vacuum and includes a conversion unit to go between 1.25", 1.5" and 2.5" diameter vacuum hoses. The hand sander comes with a 6’ x 1.25” hose, an adapter, a sander, a screen and 3 sheets of sand paper (80, 100, and 120 grit).
The Shop Vac hand sander is compatible with 1.25”, 1.5”, and 2.5” vacuum hoses. See the additional photo for a better understanding of how the hand sander works.
