Backup Pads
A back-up pad, also known as a sanding pad or support pad, is another essential tool used for securing and supporting abrasive discs, sheets, and polishing attachments. Unlike standalone abrasives, back-up pads provide stability, flexibility, and even pressure distribution, making them ideal for sanding, grinding, and polishing applications across various industries.
Back-up pads come in various sizes, materials, and attachment types to suit different tools and tasks, from aggressive material removal to fine finishing. They are commonly used with orbital sanders, angle grinders, and rotary tools for tasks such as surface preparation, paint removal, and buffing. Additionally, specialized options such as hook-and-loop fastening, rigid or flexible designs, and heat-resistant materials enhance performance and durability, ensuring optimal results for both industrial and professional finishing applications.
