The Walter Surface Technologies 48R575 Backing Pad Assembly is a critical accessory designed to optimize the performance of non-woven abrasive discs. Engineered specifically for 5-3/8 inch (135mm) surface conditioning discs, such as the Walter BLENDEX series, this assembly ensures that your abrasives are mounted securely and concentrically for vibration-free operation.
Constructed from high-quality, durable materials, the pad offers the ideal balance of rigidity and flexibility. This allows the abrasive disc to contour slightly to the workpiece, ensuring consistent contact and a uniform finish without gouging. The assembly features a standard 5/8"-11 internal thread, making it compatible with a wide range of industrial angle grinders and variable speed polishing tools commonly found in metal fabrication shops.
Proper mounting is essential for safety and efficiency. The 48R575 includes the necessary clamping hardware to lock the disc in place, preventing slippage even under heavy load. Whether you are deburring, cleaning, or applying a decorative finish to stainless steel, this backing pad provides the stable foundation required for professional results.
