Help SS pins overheating!?

I have some issues with a knife im working on.
I glued it yesterday and started sanding today.

I have used 6 x 0.12 " stainless pins in the handle. Usually I use brass, but i wanted to mix it up this time.

My issues is that they overheat VERY easily. I can barely touch it to the sander before they overheat. A few times I have smelled the horror of overheated epoxy... :-(

I use a 40 grid fresh alu-oxide belt on my cheapo 4x36" sander.

Am I doing anything wrong? Should i just take it slower?
Maybe use a mig bastard file instead to avoid messing something up?
