Common specifications

Key specifications

Diameter, width and bore are from the Abbott & Ashby catalogue (2025) p19 and the Abbott & Ashby product listings.

Selecting the right option

The two mops differ in diameter only: AAMOPST150/1 is 150mm (6") and AAMOPST200/1 is 200mm (8"), so match the size to your grinder. Abbott & Ashby recommends a stitched mop for cutting back or general purpose work, and a loose leaf calico mop for high gloss polishing. For compounds, grey compound is for use only with a stitched mop, and red compound can be used with a stitched rag or loose leaf calico mop. Keep a separate mop for each compound and label it clearly (manufacturer-stated).
