Description
Overview:
The Bottom Mount Cork Plate is a genuine Makita replacement part for selected belt sanders, including the 9401 and 9402. Made from dense, durable cork, it provides a stable, cushioning backing between the sander's base and the abrasive belt, helping the machine run smoothly and produce an even finish. Supplied to the original specification (OEM No. 424058-9), it is sized at 173mm x 111mm for a precise fit. Replacing a worn cork plate restores proper support, reduces vibration, and helps protect the sander's base components. Designed for professional and DIY use, it is suitable for everyday sanding tasks on timber and other compatible materials with the correct belts.
