The Drilax 6" Rigid Backing Pad has a fiber-reinforced nylon core that stays flat under pressure, for even sanding, grinding and polishing on flat surfaces. The low profile gives stability near edges, and the 5/8"-11 brass thread with wrench mounts fits angle grinders and polishers directly.

Benefits

Rigid Core: Fiber-reinforced nylon resists flexing and gouging.

Low Profile: Better control near edges and in tight areas.

5/8"-11 Brass Thread: Fits angle grinders and polishers, with wrench mounts for secure tightening.

Hook and Loop: Fast disc changes; holds pads securely without slipping.

Max 8,500 RPM: Rated speed for the pad.

Less Vibration: Balanced design for smoother, less tiring work.
