Old black & decker 7441 sander

[working_man]

I borrowed a Black and Decker Power Finish Sander Model 7441. The switch went out, of course. I put in a toggle switch to get me by, but I would like to find a proper replacement before returning the sander to it's owner. I have found on this web site a part number 144960-00 that looks like the switch,but 7441 is not listed. Other people that shopped for the same stuff I have,ordered this switch. I was wondering if it fits or if they just bought it hoping it would. Anyone know anything about this?

Hey working_man,
The part # you need is 384153-05..the other # is for a newer version..according to Dewalt it is still available and you can purchase at eReplacementparts.com : Power Tool Parts and Tool Repair
hope this helps..

Ok, thank you. I will get it ordered. Have a great Memorial Weekend!

I just looked at that part number and it describes it "Cover, Switch" is this just the rubber coating that covers the switch or the actual switch itself?

It is the actual switch..I think it comes with the cover also..
if there is a problem ereplacement will fix ya right up..
and YOU have a great Memorial Weekend also..!
