Key facts:Hands-free sanding and polishing · Tool post mounting · Pneumatic sanding belt drive · Quick belt changes · No manual belt rotation required · 3 sanding belts included · Original product designed and manufactured in Canada
Motorized sanding and polishing tool designed and manufactured in Canada for finishing, sanding, polishing and deburring operations on conventional and CNC lathes during turning operations.
The MST-SBH(AIR-D) mounts directly to the lathe tool post and uses a pneumatic motor to drive the sanding belt, eliminating the need to rotate it manually. It replaces manual sanding with a safer, hands-free solution that provides more consistent results and is better suited to industrial production and maintenance environments.
The tool installs quickly without requiring specialized equipment and is suitable for a variety of finishing applications on metal, alloys and wood. Compatible with sanding belts and felt belts from the MST-SBH product line, it allows for quick belt changes according to the operation and desired finish. 3 sanding belts are included with the tool.
The PRISMONT MST-SBH(AIR-D) Air-Driven Sanding Belt Holder for Lathes is designed to perform safer, efficient and precise finishing operations directly on rotating workpieces, without direct hand contact with the workpiece. It holds and drives sanding belts for various sanding, polishing and deburring applications on metal, alloys or wood, on both conventional and CNC lathes.
Mounted directly to the lathe's existing tool post, the MST-SBH(AIR-D) provides precise and stable positioning of the sanding belt against the rotating workpiece. Its compressed-air drive continuously drives the belt, eliminating manual belt rotation and reducing the amount of handling required during finishing operations. This configuration promotes a controlled, uniform finish and greater consistency from one workpiece to the next.
Designed to integrate with existing turning equipment, the MST-SBH(AIR-D) does not require the purchase of a separate finishing machine. It is particularly well suited for finishing operations after turning, light deburring, surface preparation before assembly or treatment, as well as repetitive sanding and polishing operations. Its design promotes repeatable results for both one-off production and small production runs.
The tool's design provides:
The MST-SBH(AIR-D) replaces manual hand-held sanding with a safer, hands-free solution, reducing risks associated with working close to tool posts and rotating workpieces. It also eliminates the hazards associated with improvised tool holders while promoting a more uniform, controlled and consistent finish.
The tool is designed in accordance with applicable international standards for machine tools and industrial turning operations, supporting compliance with recognized industry standards worldwide.
Each unit comes with three sanding belts included, allowing you to put the tool into service right away.

In many machine shops, sanding and polishing operations are still performed manually by holding an abrasive directly against a rotating workpiece. This method can be difficult to control and may produce variations in finish from one operator to another. It also places the operator's hands close to the workpiece and tool post, increasing the risk of snagging, entanglement or injury.
The MST-SBH(AIR-D) replaces this method with a hands-free solution mounted directly to the lathe tool post. The sanding belt is held by the device and driven by a compressed-air motor, eliminating the need to hold or manually rotate the abrasive during the operation.
This design reduces handling near rotating workpieces and also eliminates the hazards associated with improvised tool holders, while promoting more stable and controlled finishing operations.
The MST-SBH(AIR-D) combines the advantages of a hands-free sanding solution with a motorized sanding belt drive, making lathe finishing operations easier while improving speed, consistency and safety.
The MST-SBH(AIR-D) allows sanding and polishing operations to be performed without direct hand contact with the rotating workpiece. This hands-free approach helps reduce the risks associated with manual finishing operations on a lathe.
The compressed-air drive powers the sanding belt without manual rotation, allowing finishing operations to be performed faster and with less operator handling.
The sanding belt's consistent movement and stable positioning against the workpiece promote a uniform, consistent and repeatable finish during turning operations, which is particularly beneficial for repetitive or production work.
The pneumatic drive eliminates the need to rotate the sanding belt manually, reducing operator intervention near the rotating workpiece and simplifying finishing operations. The pneumatic motor also speeds up finishing operations and reduces the time required to achieve the desired finish.
The motorized belt reduces the handling and physical effort associated with sanding and polishing operations, particularly during repetitive or prolonged work.
Compatible with various sanding belts and felt belts from the MST-SBH product line, the tool makes it easy to select the appropriate abrasive for the operation and desired finish.
The MST-SBH(AIR-D) uses the same sanding belts and felt belts as corresponding sizes of the MST-SBH and MST-SBH(A) models.

The table above provides detailed technical specifications for PRISMONT MST-SBH(AIR-D) Air-Driven Sanding Belt Holders for Lathes. Each model is designed to accommodate different workpiece sizes and industrial finishing applications.
The MST-SBH(AIR-D) is the motorized version of PRISMONT's line of lathe sanding tools. Like the entire MST-SBH family, it allows hands-free sanding and polishing directly on machined workpieces while improving operator safety and control during finishing operations.
This model differs from the other versions through its integrated compressed-air drive, which powers the sanding belt without manual rotation and provides a constant belt speed. It is particularly well suited for shops looking for greater consistency, control and productivity, as well as repetitive finishing operations.
| Model | Motorized | What Sets It Apart |
|---|---|---|
| MST-SBH | No | Manual Mode for simple, hands-free sanding and polishing |
| MST-SBH(A) | No | Belt Clutch Control for greater control over belt rotation |
| MST-SBH(AIR-D) | Yes (compressed air) | Constant-speed motorized drive with no manual belt rotation |

Yes. The MST-SBH(AIR-D) holds and drives the sanding belt so the operator does not have to hold the abrasive manually against the rotating workpiece. This design allows sanding and polishing operations to be performed without direct hand contact with the workpiece while reducing manual handling during finishing.
The MST-SBH(AIR-D) is designed to replace manually holding abrasives against rotating workpieces and reduce the risks associated with this practice. Mounted directly to the lathe tool post, it holds the sanding belt securely during finishing operations.
The tool is designed in accordance with applicable international standards for machine tools and industrial turning operations to meet recognized industry safety standards.
Yes. The MST-SBH(AIR-D) is designed to mount directly to the existing tool post of conventional and CNC lathes without requiring the purchase of a separate finishing machine. Model selection should, however, take into account the workpiece dimensions, available space and lathe configuration.
→ View the technical specifications
Yes. MST-SBH(AIR-D) models use the same sanding belt and felt belt sizes as corresponding MST-SBH and MST-SBH(A) models.
If you already have belts compatible with an MST-SBH model of the same size, they can therefore be used with the MST-SBH(AIR-D), depending on the belt type and grit required for your application.
| Belts Used On | Compatible With |
|---|---|
| MST-SBH1.0 and MST-SBH(A)1.0 | MST-SBH(AIR-D)1.0 |
| MST-SBH2.0 and MST-SBH(A)2.0 | MST-SBH(AIR-D)2.0 |
| MST-SBH4.0 and MST-SBH(A)4.0 | MST-SBH(AIR-D)4.0 |
Important : Belts for a 4.0 model must not be used on a 1.0 or 2.0 model, and vice versa.
Model selection depends primarily on the diameter of the workpieces to be finished and the available space around the workpiece on the lathe. The different MST-SBH(AIR-D) sizes allow the tool to accommodate a range of workpiece diameters and operating conditions.
→ See the technical specifications to compare the dimensions and capacities of each model.
The MST-SBH(AIR-D) can be used on metal, alloy or wood workpieces during turning operations. The resulting finish depends on factors including the material, sanding belt type and grit selected for the desired finishing operation.
