3M backing pads for sanding, grinding and fibre discs, 51 to 180 mm
3M backing pads carry the sanding, grinding or fibre disc on the machine and spread the pressure over the workpiece when grinding, sanding and polishing metal and paintwork. They are part of the 3M backing pads and mandrels for powered tools; if you already use a disc system, this is where you find the carrier that matches it.
The system decides which backing pad you need. Roloc discs lock on with a twist, which helps when you change grit often. Hookit pads belong to the Perfect-It range. For fibre discs, including Cubitron II, there are ribbed and conical High Performance backing pads.
Next come size, connection and stiffness. Diameters run from 51 mm for detail work to 180 mm for large surfaces. On an angle grinder you screw on a pad with an M14 connection, on a straight grinder you use a version with a 1/4" stud. Roloc backing pads come in soft, medium, hard and extra hard: the harder the pad, the more aggressive the removal.
