Backing Pad Types and Applications

• Angle Grinder Backing Pads (Resin Fibre Disc): Rubber or fibreglass backing pads for mounting resin fibre discs on angle grinders. The backing pad supports the disc during grinding, absorbs impact and distributes pressure evenly across the disc face. Available in 100mm, 115mm, 125mm and 180mm diameters with M10 or M14 arbour thread to suit common angle grinders.
• Hook-and-Loop Backing Pads: Velcro-style hook-and-loop backing pads for random orbital sanders and angle grinders. The hook-and-loop interface allows rapid disc changes without tools, and the perforated pad design aligns with disc holes for dust extraction when used with a vacuum-connected sander.
• Flexible and Hard Backing Pads: Soft (flexible) backing pads conform to curved and irregular surfaces for profile sanding and finishing. Hard (rigid) backing pads maintain a flat cutting surface for flat panel work, levelling and heavy stock removal. Selecting the correct hardness for the application prevents disc loading and ensures consistent finishing results.
• Abrasive Accessories: Spindle adaptors, disc retaining nuts, arbour adaptors and abrasive accessories for configuring angle grinders, die grinders and orbital sanders for specific disc formats and mounting configurations.
