FAQs

What is the main purpose of this backing pad?

The main purpose is to provide a base for attaching fiber discs and sanding sheets to an angle grinder, facilitating effective grinding and surface preparation.

Can I use this backing pad with any angle grinder?

It is primarily designed for Bosch angle grinders with M14 spindles and is optimized for 115mm accessories. While it may fit other brands with M14 spindles, compatibility is best assured with Bosch tools.

What type of discs should I use with this pad?

You should use fiber discs and sanding sheets that are specifically designed with a hook-and-loop backing system, and are 115mm in diameter.

How often should I replace the backing pad?

The backing pad should be replaced if it shows signs of significant wear, damage, or if the hook-and-loop system is no longer effective. Regular inspection after each use is recommended.

What is the maximum speed this backing pad can handle?

The backing pad is rated for a maximum rotational speed of 13,300 RPM.

Is this backing pad suitable for polishing tasks?

While it is listed under 'Polishing disc' in some specifications, its primary design and material suggest it is best suited for grinding and sanding applications. For dedicated polishing, specific polishing pads may be more appropriate.

How do I clean the hook-and-loop surface?

You can clean the hook-and-loop surface using a stiff brush or by using compressed air to remove any dust, debris, or lodged fibers.

Troubleshooting

Disc not sticking to the pad

Ensure the hook-and-loop surfaces on both the disc and the pad are clean and free from debris. Press the disc firmly onto the pad to ensure good adhesion.

Excessive vibration during use

Check that the backing pad is securely tightened to the angle grinder spindle. Ensure the attached disc is also centered and properly seated on the pad. Inspect the backing pad for any damage.

Pad shows signs of melting or warping

This can occur if the tool is operated at speeds exceeding the pad's maximum rating (13,300 RPM) or if excessive pressure is applied for extended periods, generating too much heat. Ensure you are using the correct speed settings and not overheating the tool. Inspect the pad for damage and replace if necessary.

Difficulty unscrewing the backing pad

Ensure the angle grinder has cooled down. Use the appropriate spanner for your angle grinder to loosen the spindle nut. If stuck, a gentle tap with a rubber mallet might help, but avoid excessive force.
