The ribbed construction reduces heat buildup during operation, allowing the disc to run cooler and extend consumable life. Rated extra hard and color-coded red, this face plate delivers firm, consistent backing pressure across the disc surface. It is compatible with both 4.5-inch disc pad hubs and 2.5-inch hubs, giving technicians flexibility in tool selection. Installation and removal are straightforward, making it a practical component for abrasive disc setups in metalworking and fabrication environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis face plate is suited for professional grinding and surface preparation tasks where fibre discs are the abrasive of choice. The 9-inch diameter matches standard 9-inch fibre disc sizes with a 7\/8-inch arbor hole. It is commonly used in industrial fabrication, welding shops, and heavy-duty maintenance settings where controlling disc temperature and maintaining consistent backing hardness are priorities. Licensed tradespeople and experienced fabricators working with angle grinders or disc grinders will find this a direct-fit backing component for their existing pad hub assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRibbed face design promotes cooler disc operation by reducing contact heat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtra hard backing (red) provides firm, uniform pressure across the full disc surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with 4.5-inch disc pad hubs and 2.5-inch hubs for tool flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for use with 9-inch diameter x 7\/8-inch fibre discs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually; minimum order quantity of 10 units\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 9-inch diameter x 7\/8-inch fibre discs.
