Overview
The SKIL 7292-02 is a corded electric sander running on a 120 volt, 2 amp motor at 14,000 RPM. At 2.6 pounds, it is light enough for one-handed use on smaller sanding jobs.
The 2 amp motor and 14,000 RPM speed put this in SKIL's lighter sanding lineup rather than its larger belt or random orbit sanders built for stock removal. Being corded means no battery runtime to manage, at the cost of needing an outlet within reach. At 2.6 pounds it is built for control on finish work rather than for rapid material removal.

- 2 amp power draw
- 14,000 RPM sanding speed
- 2.6 pound weight
Who it's for
Fits anyone doing finish sanding, small furniture touch ups, or prep work where control matters more than speed. Less suited to large flat surfaces or heavy stock removal, where a bigger sander with a larger pad would clear material faster.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Consistent power from a corded 120V motor
- Light at 2.6 pounds for one-handed control
- 14,000 RPM speed suited to finish sanding
- Needs an outlet, no cordless option
- 2 amp motor is modest for heavy stock removal
Performance notes
The 2 amp motor spins the pad at 14,000 RPM, a speed aimed at smoothing rather than stripping material fast. Being corded, output stays consistent through the job instead of tapering as a battery drains. The 2.6 pound weight keeps the tool easy to hold at odd angles for longer stretches without arm fatigue.
