What are the parts of a sander?
On the Craftsman model 875167061, the main serviceable parts are the housing, trigger and valve pieces, seals (O-rings), nozzle assembly parts, and the abrasive feed components (hose, screen, hopper, and hardware). For the complete exploded view and part list, use the owner's manual.
Common parts you will see on this model
From the model 875167061 parts list, these are the core components you typically replace or service:
- Housing
- Trigger and trigger spring
- Valve, stem, and spring
- O-rings and washers (seals)
- Nozzle body and nozzle tips
- Hose and screen
- Hopper, lock washer, and nut
Parts breakdown (what they do)
| Part group | Examples on model 875167061 | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Air control | Valve, stem, trigger, springs | Starts and stops airflow and abrasive flow |
| Sealing hardware | O-rings, washers, screws | Prevents air leaks and keeps joints tight |
| Nozzle system | Nozzle body, ceramic nozzle, nozzle tips | Shapes the blast stream and controls wear |
| Abrasive feed | Hose, screen, hopper | Delivers abrasive to the nozzle and filters debris |
Why it matters
Knowing the major part groups helps you troubleshoot faster. For example, weak blasting is often tied to air leaks (O-rings/fitments), a restricted screen or hose, or a worn nozzle tip that changes flow.
Quick checks before you order parts
- Depressurize and disconnect the air hose before inspecting anything
- Tighten hose clamps and fittings; look for leaks at joints and valves
- Inspect the nozzle tip for wear or cracking
- Check the screen and hose for clogs or moisture-packed abrasive
- Verify your air supply matches typical needs for this tool type (steady pressure and adequate hose size)

What does SA 2.5 mean in sand blasting?
SA 2.5 is a surface-preparation grade that means very thorough abrasive blast-cleaning. After blasting to SA 2.5, the surface is uniformly clean with only slight “shadow” staining allowed; loose mill scale, rust, paint, and other contaminants are removed before coating or painting.
What you should see at SA 2.5
A properly blasted surface at SA 2.5 typically looks evenly matte and clean, with a consistent profile for coating adhesion.
- Mill scale and rust are removed from the surface
- Old paint and foreign material are removed
- Only light staining or “shadows” may remain (not loose material)
- The surface is ready for primer or coating (after dust removal)
- Final cleanup is done by vacuuming, brushing, or blowing off with clean, dry compressed air
How this applies when using your Craftsman 875167061 sand blaster
Your Craftsman 875167061 is designed for removing rust and paint; getting to SA 2.5 depends on abrasive choice, air supply, and technique. For best results, follow the air and safety setup guidance in the owner's manual.
| Setup item | What we recommend | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Air pressure | Up to 90 PSI (max) | Helps maintain cutting power without overloading the tool |
| Air hose size | 3/8 in. I.D. for short runs | Prevents pressure drop at the tool |
| Air quality | Clean, dry air | Moisture causes clumping and inconsistent blasting |
| PPE | Face and respiratory protection | Blasting dust and rebound are hazardous |
Why it matters
SA 2.5 is commonly specified because coatings bond best to a clean, evenly textured surface. If you stop short (for example, leaving tight rust or embedded contaminants), paint and primer can fail early.

Where can I buy CRAFTSMAN replacement parts?
You can buy replacement parts for your Craftsman model 875167061 by using the model-based parts list and diagrams on Sears PartsDirect, then matching the exact part name and number before ordering. For part identification details and the exploded view, use the owner's manual.
How we recommend buying the right part
- Confirm the model number on the tool’s serial plate (it should read 875167061).
- Use the exploded view and parts list to identify the exact component name.
- Match the part number exactly (for this model, the manual lists parts such as 9106731 housing and 9106745 ceramics nozzle).
- Order the part using the exact part number to avoid fit issues.
- If you are replacing seals or air-path parts, plan to inspect nearby O-rings, screws, and washers at the same time.
Common parts customers replace on this model
These are examples from the Craftsman 875167061 sand blaster parts list in the manual:
| Part type | Example part number | What it affects |
|---|---|---|
| Nozzle sizes | 9106740A / 9106740B / 9106740C | Blast pattern and media flow |
| O-rings | 9106741 | Air leaks, suction performance |
| Trigger and spring | 9106748 / 9106749 | On/off control and return action |
| Hose screen | 9106752 | Media feed consistency |
Why it matters
Ordering by model number plus part number is the fastest way to get a compatible Craftsman replacement part, especially on pneumatic tools where small differences in nozzle, O-ring, or valve parts can cause air leaks, poor suction, or uneven blasting.
