OVERVIEW

Maximize Abrasive Life with the Walter 5" Turbo Pad

The Walter 15M054 5" Turbo Pad in Black is a specialized accessory designed to optimize the performance of your resin fiber sanding discs. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, this backing pad distinguishes itself with a unique saucer-shaped profile and a distinctively ribbed backing. These design elements are not merely aesthetic; they serve a critical function in thermal management during aggressive grinding applications.

Heat is the enemy of abrasive longevity. As friction builds during sanding, standard pads can trap heat, causing the abrasive grains to glaze over or the disc backing to deteriorate prematurely. The Walter Turbo Pad solves this by generating a continuous stream of air between the pad and the disc. This active ventilation system ensures cooler operation, which prevents the workpiece from discoloring and significantly extends the usable life of your sanding discs. The black color indicates a standard density, making it versatile for a wide range of general-purpose metal fabrication tasks.

Whether you are blending welds, removing rust, or preparing surfaces for finishing, the stability and cooling properties of this turbo pad provide a consistent platform for your abrasives. It is an essential component for professionals looking to get the most out of their consumables while maintaining high productivity levels.

FAQ

The ribbed backing creates a gap that allows air to flow between the pad and the sanding disc. This ventilation keeps the disc cool, preventing overheating and extending the life of the abrasive.

This pad is designed for use with 5-inch resin fiber sanding discs.

Yes, in Walter's color-coding system, black typically represents a standard density pad suitable for general-purpose grinding applications.

It is compatible with most standard 5-inch angle grinders that accept standard backing pads and resin fiber discs.

No, this product is the backing pad only. You typically use the clamping nut provided with your angle grinder or a compatible specialized nut.

By maintaining a cooler grinding temperature through airflow, it prevents the abrasive resin from softening and the grains from glazing, allowing the disc to cut effectively for a longer period.
