Traditional 150mm Backing Pad
Professional Traditional 150mm Backing Pad constructed from medium-density Polyurethane (PU). Featuring an integrated multi-hole dust extraction system, this pad provides the ideal balance of flexibility and rigidity for uniform pressure during sanding. Perfect for gelcoat, automotive paint, and composite surface preparation.
The Traditional 150mm Backing Pad is the essential interface between your sander and the abrasive disc. Its medium-density PU construction is specifically chosen for its “memory” properties—it provides enough stiffness to level out high spots while remaining flexible enough to follow the slight contours of a boat hull or car panel without creating flat spots.
Equipped with a direct dust extraction system, this pad significantly reduces heat buildup on the abrasive surface, which prevents “clogging” and extends the life of your sanding discs. It ensures that the dust is pulled away the moment it is created, keeping the workspace clean and protecting the operator’s health. Whether you are prepping a surface for a fresh coat of varnish or leveling out a fiberglass repair, this pad ensures a professional, swirl-free result.
✔ Medium-Density PU → Engineered for the perfect balance of surface leveling and contour following.
✔ Integrated Dust Channels → High-efficiency airflow pulls dust away from the work area instantly.
✔ Uniform Pressure Distribution → Eliminates uneven sanding marks and “pigtails.”
✔ Heat Resistant → Polyurethane structure maintains its shape and density even during long, high-RPM sessions.
✔ Hook-and-Loop (Velcro) Interface → Provides a secure, centered grip for all standard 150mm abrasive discs.
Material: High-grade Polyurethane (PU)
Diameter: 150 mm (6 inches)
Density: Medium (Versatile/General Purpose)
Extraction: Integrated Multi-Hole System
Compatibility: Universal fit for 150mm orbital sanders (M8 or 5/16″ thread typically)
🔹 Application Instructions
Mounting: Thread the pad onto your sander (like the Stayer RO 5 B) and tighten securely with the service wrench.
Alignment: Center your abrasive disc carefully on the pad, ensuring the holes in the disc line up with the holes in the pad for maximum suction.
Pressure: Apply light, even pressure. Let the medium density of the PU do the work of leveling the surface.
Maintenance: Periodically check the Velcro hooks for debris; clean with a soft brush to ensure the abrasive discs stay firmly attached.
👉 Pro Tip: In the marine sector, use the medium-density pad for the “intermediate” stages of sanding (P180 to P400). It’s soft enough to not gouge the gelcoat but firm enough to get rid of the “orange peel” texture after painting.
Nautical Sector: Preparing gelcoat, sanding primers, and finishing wooden brightwork.
Automotive Refinishing: Sanding body filler, primers, and prepping for topcoats.
Industrial Woodworking: Leveling solid wood surfaces and technical composites.
Solid Surfaces: Achieving uniform finishes on materials like Corian or fiberglass laminates.
150mm Traditional Pad: Single unit (Medium Density)
A perfectly leveled and smooth surface, free from dust contamination and ready for the next stage of painting or polishing.
