3M 7010298961 Roloc Disc Pad Tr Hard 4 in 5/8-11

Product Description

The 3M 7010298961 is a hard rubber backup pad designed to support Roloc TR 4-inch diameter abrasive discs in grinding and finishing applications. The pad mounts directly to tools equipped with a 5/8-11 external threaded shaft, providing a secure, stable platform for disc-backed surface work. At 0.31 pounds, it is lightweight enough for extended use without adding significant tool mass. Fabricated from hard rubber, the pad maintains disc geometry under load, helping ensure consistent abrasive contact across the work surface. Installation and removal of Roloc discs is tool-free, using the quick-change twist-lock interface built into the TR design.

This backup pad is suited for use with angle grinders, die grinders, and sanders that accept a 5/8-11 EXT threaded shaft. It is compatible with tools having a shaft length of 5/8 inches or shorter. Typical applications include metal fabrication, weld blending, surface preparation, and paint or rust removal in automotive, industrial, and structural steel environments. The pad is sold individually and is a standard component in shops running Roloc TR disc systems.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a qualified technician or tool operator. Before mounting or changing the pad, power down the tool and disconnect it from its power source or air supply. Thread the pad onto the tool shaft by hand until snug, ensuring the 5/8-11 thread engagement is full before operating. Verify shaft length does not exceed 5/8 inches to avoid improper seating, which can cause disc runout or ejection during use.
