OVERVIEW

Precision Finishing with the Walter 07Q070 Interface Pad

The Walter 07Q070 is a premium 7-inch interface pad designed to bridge the gap between aggressive stock removal and fine surface finishing. Manufactured by Walter Surface Technologies, a leader in industrial abrasives, this interface pad is engineered to provide a cushioning layer between your standard backing pad and the abrasive disc. This additional layer of soft foam is critical when working on workpieces that are not perfectly flat. By introducing flexibility into the sanding assembly, the 07Q070 allows the abrasive disc to contour naturally to curved surfaces, pipes, and rounded edges without digging in.

In industrial environments, maintaining the integrity of the base material while achieving a uniform finish is paramount. Rigid backing pads can often cause flat spots or gouges when applied to curved areas. The Walter 07Q070 mitigates this risk by absorbing excess pressure and distributing it evenly across the contact area. This results in a smoother, more consistent scratch pattern and a higher quality finish. The pad utilizes a reliable hook and loop fastening system, ensuring it stays securely centered on the backing pad while allowing for quick changeouts of abrasive discs. It is an essential accessory for metalworkers requiring precision in finishing operations.

Durability is a key feature of Walter accessories. The foam material used in the 07Q070 is resilient and designed to withstand the heat and stress of continuous sanding operations. Whether you are blending welds on a tank, finishing a handrail, or preparing a surface for painting, this interface pad enhances the performance of your abrasives. It is particularly effective when used with finer grit discs where the goal is to refine the surface rather than remove heavy stock. By reducing vibration and improving control, it also reduces operator fatigue during extended use.

Key Technical Benefits:

  • Enhanced Flexibility: Converts rigid backing pads into contour-hugging tools.
  • Surface Protection: Prevents gouging and undercutting on delicate or curved parts.
  • Vibration Damping: Absorbs operational vibration for a smoother finish.
  • Universal Fit: Compatible with standard 7-inch hook and loop systems.

FAQ

The main purpose is to provide a cushion between the backing pad and the abrasive disc, allowing for better contouring on curved surfaces and preventing gouging.

Yes, it is designed to work with most standard 7-inch backing pads that utilize a hook and loop (Velcro-style) attachment system.

It is not recommended for heavy grinding. Interface pads are best suited for finishing, blending, and sanding applications where flexibility is required.

It attaches via hook and loop. One side attaches to your tool's backing pad, and the other side holds the abrasive disc.

It can actually extend the life of sanding discs by ensuring more even contact with the work surface and reducing heat buildup.

While the foam is durable, you should check the specific abrasive disc's compatibility with wet applications. The pad itself is generally resistant to moisture but designed primarily for dry industrial finishing.

The Walter 07Q070 has a diameter of 7 inches.

No, this is sold as the interface pad only. Abrasive discs must be purchased separately.
