JET IBGB-248VS Variable Speed 8" Bench Grinder with 2" × 48" Belt Sander
Are you spending too much time switching between tools to grind, shape, and finish metal parts in your shop?
What if one machine handled both grinding and belt sanding with the speed control to match the work in front of you?
Meet the JET IBGB-248VS Variable Speed 8" Bench Grinder with 2" × 48" Belt Sander, a combination machine built for shops that demand reliable performance across a range of metalworking tasks.
With the IBGB-248VS, you get an industrially built platform that pairs a variable speed 8" grinding wheel with a 2" × 48" sanding belt, all driven by a totally enclosed 1HP motor and backed by a digital RPM and SFPM readout so you know exactly where your speed is set.
When your bench grinder and belt sander work from the same solid machine, you move through grinding, shaping, and finishing without losing time or momentum between steps.
JET IBGB-248VS for Grinding and Belt Sanding in One Setup
Variable Speed Control Matches the Work
The IBGB-248VS runs across a wide speed range so you can dial in the right surface feet per minute for grinding hard steel or finishing softer metals without overheating the part. The digital readout shows your RPM and SFPM in real time, so you set the speed with confidence and stay consistent across identical parts.
Electric Motor Brake Stops the Wheel Quickly
The electric brake brings the grinding wheel from 3,600 RPM to a full stop in under 20 seconds. That means less waiting between adjustments or tool changes and a safer shutdown at the end of the session. In a busy shop, that kind of response time matters.
Totally Enclosed Motor Holds Up to Daily Use
The 1HP motor is totally enclosed and pre-lubricated, which keeps contaminants out and reduces the maintenance demand over time. The rubber-sealed bearings on the idle wheel are built for long-term use without regular servicing, so the machine stays ready when you need it.
Safety Guarding and Dust Ports Support a Clean Setup
The belt sander section includes innovative safety guarding around the sanding belt to keep the work area safer during operation. Two 2" round dust ports let you connect dust collection to both work stations so you keep the bench clear and the air cleaner while you work.
