The DEWALT DWE6401DS 5-Inch Variable Speed Disc Sander with Dust Shroud is made for pros who need power and control in high-torque finishing. Its 6-amp motor reduces sanding time, while the variable speed dial lets you match tool speed to the task—from heavy stock removal to light finishing.
The mid-handle design, soft-grip, and side handle keep you balanced and comfortable even during extended use. The sander accepts 5-inch 8-hole hook-and-loop paper, so replacement discs are easy to find and quick to change.
When it’s time for a new DWE6401DS replacement pad, make sure you choose a 5-inch, 8-hole hook-and-loop pad. This matches the sander’s platen and keeps the dust collection holes aligned. You can find compatible pads through DEWALT or aftermarket suppliers; just confirm the 8-hole pattern before you buy.
The adjustable dust shroud connects directly to a vacuum hose, pulling dust away from the work surface and keeping the air cleaner. The soft-grip mid-handle and side handle reduce fatigue, especially during long sanding sessions on horizontal or vertical surfaces.

Pair your sander with the right paper and a good vacuum to get consistent, smooth results on wood, paint, and composite surfaces.
Start at a lower speed for delicate surfaces and increase the OPM for fast paint or material removal. Always test on scrap before starting a finished piece.
Look for a 5-inch, 8-hole hook-and-loop pad. Any replacement pad with the same hole pattern and a standard hook-and-loop attachment will fit the DWE6401DS.
Yes, the adjustable dust shroud connects to a standard vacuum hose for improved dust collection and a cleaner work area.
It uses 5-inch discs with 8 holes and hook-and-loop backing, widely available from DEWALT and other brands.
No dust, great power.
I use this sander for finishing furniture. It leaves a smooth surface. The variable speed is useful.
I've been woodworking for 30 years and this is my favorite sander. The dust shroud works perfectly with my shop vac. It keeps the air clean. The mid-handle design gives great control. The 6-amp motor is powerful. It does not bog down on hardwood. The variable speed lets me adjust for different grits. Excellent tool.
It's a solid sander, but a bit heavy. The dust collection is great. Haven't had any issues.
I'm a professional finisher and this sander is my daily driver. The dust shroud is a lifesaver for my health. It hooks up to my vac and I barely see dust. The sanding pad is smooth and doesn't vibrate excessively. The variable speed dial is easy to flip. It's built to last. I've put it through its paces.
Vibrates too much.
My husband and I do craft projects. This sander is easy for me to handle. The dust feature is nice.
I'm a DIYer and I love this sander. It’s powerful but easy to control. The dust shroud connects to my vacuum and catches almost everything. I sanded a whole tabletop without the mess. The variable speed is great for edges. The mid-handle design feels natural. Definitely a good purchase.
