RIKON Power Tools for the Woodworking Shop

RIKON has built a reputation in the woodworking community for producing capable, well-engineered shop tools at accessible price points. The RIKON lineup at Infinity Tools covers stationary sanding, tool sharpening, and shop air quality — three areas where reliable machine performance makes a daily difference in the shop.

The RIKON 4 x 36 belt and 6-inch disk sander combines two sanding surfaces in a single compact footprint, making it practical for smaller shops. The belt handles edge sanding, chamfers, and contoured pieces, while the disk sander excels at end-grain work and refining miters. Both surfaces can be used independently or in sequence.

For tool sharpening, the RIKON 8-inch slow-speed grinder operates at reduced RPM to minimize heat buildup at the tool edge — a critical factor when sharpening high-speed steel chisels, plane blades, and turning tools where overheating destroys the temper. The optional stand for the 8-inch grinder brings the machine to a comfortable working height.

Shop Air Quality with RIKON Air Filtration

Fine airborne dust is a persistent health hazard in woodworking environments. The RIKON 3-speed air filtration system, rated at 450 CFM, circulates and filters shop air continuously, reducing the concentration of fine particles that dust collectors miss. It mounts to the ceiling or hangs from joists, keeping the floor and bench clear. Pair it with appropriate personal protective gear for comprehensive dust management.

  • Belt and disk sander combination for versatile stationary sanding
  • Slow-speed grinder minimizes heat damage to tool edges
  • Air filtration system captures fine dust dust collectors leave airborne
  • Grinder stand brings the machine to ergonomic working height

Frequently Asked Questions

What RIKON tools does Infinity Tools carry?

Infinity Tools carries a focused selection of RIKON shop tools including the 4 x 36 belt and 6-inch disk sander, the 8-inch slow-speed grinder, its matching stand, and the 3-speed air filtration system.

Why use a slow-speed grinder instead of a standard bench grinder for sharpening?

Slow-speed grinders operate at lower RPM, generating significantly less heat at the grinding wheel. This reduces the risk of overheating the steel and destroying the temper (heat treatment) of chisels, plane irons, and turning tools — a common problem with high-speed grinders.

What is the CFM of the RIKON air filtration system?

The RIKON air filtration system is rated at 450 CFM on its highest of three speeds, providing meaningful air turnover in workshop-sized spaces.

Can the RIKON belt and disk sander be used for sharpening carving tools?

The belt sander portion can be used for rough shaping and bevel grinding on carving tools, though dedicated sharpening on a slow-speed grinder followed by waterstones typically produces a finer, more controlled edge. The belt sander is best suited for general shaping and material removal.

Does the RIKON 8-inch grinder require a separate stand?

The grinder can be bench-mounted but the optional RIKON stand for the 8-inch grinder raises it to a comfortable standing working height and frees up bench space.

Does an air filtration system replace a dust collector in a woodworking shop?

No. A dust collector captures chips and heavy sawdust at the source. An air filtration system captures the fine residual particles that remain airborne after collection, providing complementary rather than redundant protection. Both are recommended for comprehensive dust management.

Is RIKON a reputable brand for woodworking tools?

RIKON is a well-regarded brand among hobbyist and semi-professional woodworkers, known for offering capable machines at accessible price points. Their tools are widely reviewed positively in the woodworking community for build quality and performance relative to cost.

What personal protective gear should I wear when using a grinder or sander?

Always wear eye protection — ideally a face shield — when grinding or sanding, as both operations generate sparks or fine particles that pose an eye hazard. Hearing protection is recommended during extended use, and a dust mask or shop-appropriate respirator protects against fine abrasive dust.
