15M155 - Walter 5-Inch Turbo Backing Pad for COOLCUT XX - White

Optimize Your Sanding with the Walter 15M155 Turbo Pad

The Walter 15M155 5" Qck Change Turbo Pad is an essential accessory designed to unlock the full potential of your COOLCUT XX sanding discs. In the world of metal fabrication and finishing, heat is the primary enemy of abrasive longevity. Excessive heat softens the resin bond of sanding discs and dulls the grain, leading to glazed abrasives and wasted consumables. Walter Surface Technologies has addressed this challenge with their innovative Turbo Pad design.

This backing pad features a unique ribbed structure on its face. As the angle grinder spins at high RPMs, these ribs act like a centrifugal fan, forcing a consistent stream of air between the backing pad and the abrasive disc. This active airflow dissipates heat rapidly, keeping both the workpiece and the disc significantly cooler than standard flat backing pads. The result is a dramatic increase in the lifespan of your COOLCUT XX discs, allowing you to work longer without changing abrasives.

The "White" classification of this pad indicates its specific density and flexibility, tailored to provide the right amount of support for general purpose and finishing applications. Its saucer shape is ergonomically designed to maintain the optimal angle of attack, ensuring that the abrasive contacts the metal efficiently without gouging. Whether you are blending welds on stainless steel or removing rust from carbon steel, the 15M155 ensures your abrasives perform at their peak.

Furthermore, the Quick Change capability implies a design focused on efficiency, allowing operators to swap out worn pads or switch between grits with minimal downtime. By maintaining a cooler grinding zone, this pad also helps prevent heat-tinting and discoloration on sensitive alloys, reducing the need for post-weld rework. Invest in the Walter 15M155 to save money on consumables and improve your finishing quality.
