OVERVIEW

Optimized Cooling and Flexibility for Professional Finishing

The Walter 15-M-065 6" Turbo Backing Pad is a premium abrasive accessory designed to maximize the performance of resin fiber discs. Distinguished by its white color, this specific model is engineered with a flexible composition, making it the ideal choice for sanding curved surfaces, contours, and performing fine finishing work where a softer touch is required compared to standard rigid pads.

Heat is the primary enemy of abrasive longevity. Walter's innovative Turbo™ design features a unique ribbed pattern on the face of the pad. As the grinder spins, these ribs generate a powerful airflow behind the sanding disc. This continuous ventilation dissipates heat rapidly, preventing the disc from glazing over or burning the workpiece. The result is a cooler grinding operation that can extend the life of your fiber discs by up to 50%, significantly reducing consumable costs over time.

This backing pad is compatible with standard 6-inch angle grinders featuring a 5/8"-11 spindle. The saucer-shaped profile ensures the disc is held at the correct angle for efficient material removal while maintaining enough flex to conform to the workpiece. Whether you are blending welds on a tank, finishing pipe, or preparing irregular metal surfaces, the Walter 15-M-065 provides the control and cooling necessary for high-quality results.

FAQ

The color indicates the hardness or density of the pad. The White pad (15-M-065) is flexible, making it ideal for curved surfaces, contours, and finishing work. The Black pad is medium/hard, designed for flat surfaces and heavy stock removal.

Yes, the Walter Turbo backing pad typically includes the necessary clamping nut to secure the resin fiber disc to the pad.

This pad is designed for 6-inch angle grinders with a standard 5/8"-11 spindle thread.

No, this backing pad is specifically designed for resin fiber sanding discs. Flap discs have their own built-in backing plate and do not require a separate pad.

The ribbed design creates air channels that pull cool air in and expel hot air during rotation. This keeps the abrasive grains and the workpiece cooler, preventing premature glazing and burning of the disc.

The maximum safe operating speed for the 15-M-065 pad is 10,000 RPM. Always ensure your grinder's speed does not exceed this rating.

Yes, it is excellent for stainless steel. The cooling effect helps prevent heat tinting and warping, and the flexibility allows for smooth blending on stainless finishes.

No, you must use 6-inch resin fiber discs with this 6-inch backing pad to ensure proper support and safety.
