Corcos 167 Reinforced Backing Pad
Heavy-duty Corcos Art. 167 reinforced backing pad (150mm). Featuring a medium-density Polyurethane (PU) body and a high-strength fiberglass flange, this pad is engineered for intensive professional sanding. Designed with a total dust extraction system for a cleaner workspace and superior abrasive life.
The Corcos 167 Reinforced Backing Pad is the high-performance evolution of the standard backing pad, specifically designed for the demanding environments of shipyards and automotive body shops.
What sets the Corcos 167 Reinforced Backing Pad apart is its fiberglass-reinforced flange. Unlike standard nylon cores, the fiberglass structure offers extreme rigidity and resistance to mechanical stress, preventing the pad from warping or losing its shape during prolonged, high-pressure sanding sessions. The medium-density PU body provides the perfect balance of firmness for leveling surfaces and enough “give” to follow subtle hull contours without gouging.
Equipped with a total dust extraction system, it pulls dust away from the work surface instantly, preventing abrasive clogging and keeping the technician’s environment significantly cleaner.
✔ Fiberglass Reinforced Core → Maximum structural integrity for heavy-duty, continuous use.
✔ Medium-Density PU → Ensures uniform pressure distribution for a flatter, more consistent finish.
✔ Total Dust Extraction → Multi-hole pattern designed to work with all standard vacuum-assisted sanders.
✔ High Heat Resistance → The fiberglass and PU combination dissipates heat faster than standard pads.
✔ Low Vibration → Precision balanced to reduce hand-arm vibration during long shifts.
Brand: Corcos
Model: Art. 167
Diameter: 150 mm (6 inches)
Body Material: Industrial-grade Polyurethane (PU)
Reinforcement: Fiberglass (Glass Fiber) Flange
Extraction Type: Total / Multi-hole vacuum system
Interface: High-grip Hook-and-Loop (Velcro)
🔹 Application Instructions
Screw the Art. 167 onto your random orbital or rotary sander (ensure the thread matches your machine).
Align a 150mm multi-hole abrasive disc with the extraction holes on the pad.
For Gelcoat Leveling: Apply steady, even pressure. The fiberglass core ensures the pad stays flat against the surface.
For Paint Prep: Use the medium density to feather-edge repaired areas into the original finish.
Always use with a vacuum extraction system to maximize the “Total Suction” design.
👉 Pro Tip: Because this pad is reinforced with fiberglass, it is much stiffer than the Linea Plus 150/151. Use the Art. 167 for leveling and stripping where you need the tool to do the heavy lifting.
Shipyards: Stripping old anti-fouling, leveling gelcoat, and fairing large hull areas.
Automotive Bodywork: Intensive sanding of primers, fillers, and metal surfaces.
Composites Industry: Shaping and finishing hard carbon fiber or fiberglass molds.
Industrial Woodwork: Rapid material removal and surface flattening.
Article 167: Reinforced Backing Pad (Ø150 mm)
Faster material removal, a cleaner work environment, and a tool that lasts significantly longer than standard backing pads under professional conditions.
“A reliable company, professional-quality products, quantities suitable for DIY projects, prompt phone support, and professional technical advice at reasonable prices—finally, a go-to place! Well done 👍”
Maurizio Riondato
“An excellent salesperson who, above all, knows his stuff—he understands what he’s selling and clearly explains how to use it, providing all the necessary information. Plus, the products are high-quality and offer excellent value for money. The owner and his staff are kind and professional in a way that’s hard to find anywhere else these days.”
