OVERVIEW

Premium Flexibility for Industrial Finishing

The Walter 15D064 6-Inch Backing Pad is an essential accessory for professionals seeking precision and durability in their abrasive operations. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, a leader in industrial surface treatment solutions, this backing pad is designed to maximize the performance of your resin fiber discs. The core of this product lies in its construction; it is manufactured from high-quality, impact-resistant plastic. In the harsh environment of a metal fabrication shop or an MRO facility, tools are often subjected to drops, knocks, and intense vibration. This backing pad is built to withstand such abuse without cracking or shattering, ensuring a long service life and reducing the frequency of replacements.

One of the standout features of the 15D064 is its "Ultimate Flexibility." Unlike rigid backing pads that are strictly suited for flat surfaces, this pad is designed to conform to the workpiece. This flexibility is crucial when working on curved metals, tanks, pipes, or irregular shapes. It allows the abrasive disc to maintain consistent contact with the surface, resulting in a more uniform finish and preventing the gouging that can occur with harder pads. The ability to flex also helps in blending welds smoothly into the base metal, a common requirement in high-end fabrication work.

Compatibility is key in industrial settings, and this backing pad features a standard 5/8"-11 threaded arbor. This universal thread size ensures it fits securely onto the majority of 6-inch angle grinders available on the market today. The installation is quick and tool-free, allowing operators to switch out pads or discs efficiently to minimize downtime. Whether you are removing rust, grinding down welds, or preparing surfaces for painting, the stability provided by this backing pad ensures that your abrasive media performs at its best. By providing a reliable interface between the power tool and the abrasive, the Walter 15D064 enhances both safety and efficiency in your daily operations.

Invest in accessories that match the quality of your work. The Walter 6-inch backing pad delivers the resilience needed for heavy-duty stock removal while offering the finesse required for finishing touches. It is a versatile component that belongs in the toolkit of every serious metalworker.
