15D052 - 5-Inch Flexible Backing Pad M14 Thread

High-Performance Support for Abrasive Applications

The Walter 15D052 5-Inch Backing Pad is an essential accessory for professionals seeking precision and durability in their surface finishing operations. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, a leader in abrasive solutions, this backing pad is specifically designed to maximize the performance of resin fiber discs and other sanding abrasives. The unit features a specific M14 thread configuration, making it the ideal choice for angle grinders and power tools that utilize this metric spindle standard, ensuring a secure and balanced connection during high-speed rotation.

Crafted from a specially formulated, impact-resistant plastic, this backing pad stands out for its exceptional resilience. Unlike standard rubber pads that may degrade quickly under heat and pressure, the high-quality plastic construction of the 15D052 maintains its structural integrity even during rigorous use. This durability translates to less downtime for changeovers and a more consistent finish on your workpieces. The material is also designed to dissipate heat effectively, which helps in preventing the premature glazing or burning of the abrasive disc, thereby extending the life of your consumables.

One of the defining characteristics of this backing pad is its unparalleled flexibility. In metalworking, the ability to follow the natural curves and contours of the base material is crucial for achieving a seamless blend. This pad provides the necessary give to allow the abrasive to conform to the surface without gouging or undercutting, making it perfect for blending welds on curved surfaces or preparing complex geometries for painting. Whether you are working with stainless steel, carbon steel, or aluminum, the Walter 5-Inch M14 Backing Pad provides the reliable foundation needed for superior surface preparation results.
