FAQs

What size discs does this holder use?

This holder is designed for 150mm diameter sanding discs and pads.

Can I use this with sandpaper sheets?

No, this holder is specifically designed for hook-and-loop backed abrasive discs and foam pads.

Is it suitable for flat surfaces?

While it can be used on flat surfaces, it is primarily designed for and performs best on curved or irregular shapes due to its flexibility.

Does it come with abrasive discs?

No, the Flexipads World Class Hand Sanding Holder is sold separately from abrasive discs and foam pads. These need to be purchased independently.

How do I clean the holder?

Wipe with a slightly damp cloth after use. Ensure it is completely dry before storing. Avoid soaking or using harsh solvents.

What is the main advantage of a flexible holder?

The main advantage is its ability to conform to curved and contoured surfaces, ensuring consistent contact and a uniform finish where rigid blocks would fail.

Troubleshooting

Abrasive disc not sticking securely

Ensure the hook-and-loop surface of the holder and the back of the abrasive disc are clean and free from dust or debris. Replace worn-out hook-and-loop discs.

Uneven sanding results

Check that the abrasive disc is correctly centered and flat against the holder. Apply consistent, even pressure during sanding, allowing the holder's flexibility to work.

Holder feels stiff on curves

Ensure you are using appropriate abrasive grits for the material and the curve complexity. Excessive pressure can also make it feel stiff; use lighter, sweeping motions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent for sanding contours and complex shapes.
  • Provides consistent pressure distribution on uneven surfaces.
  • Comfortable to hold for extended sanding periods.
  • Compatible with common 150mm sanding media.
  • Durable build quality for professional use.

Cons

  • Requires separate purchase of abrasive discs or foam.
  • May not be ideal for completely flat surfaces where a rigid block is preferred.
  • Manual operation means it's slower than powered sanders for large areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use the Flexipads World Class Hand Sanding Holder, simply attach a compatible 150mm abrasive disc or foam pad to the hook-and-loop surface. Ensure the disc/pad is centered and securely fastened before use.

Compatibility: This holder is designed for use with standard 150mm diameter hook-and-loop abrasive discs and foam pads. It is intended for manual hand sanding applications.

Care: After each use, remove any dust and debris from the holder's surface. Wipe down with a slightly damp cloth if necessary, avoiding excessive moisture. Store in a dry place to maintain its condition and prevent damage to the hook-and-loop material.
