It's not a necessity but nice to have and it does a good job and it seems like it will last awhile.
Note:
According to the sizing information it seems 1 1/8" would be the correct size. I also purchased the 1 1/8" and it seems too tight - but it might work. 180 grit leaves a nice finish and doesn't cut too slowly.
