Merit Abrasives 08834164113 Disc Backing Pad Quick-change Type S

Product Description

The MERIT ABRASIVES 08834164113 is a Quick-Change Type S disc backing pad designed for use with rotary power tools in grinding, blending, and surface preparation applications. It features a 0.25-inch shank diameter and supports a maximum spindle speed of 20,000 RPM, making it compatible with high-speed die grinders and similar tools. The medium-density construction provides consistent backing support across the abrasive disc surface, helping maintain even contact and controlled material removal. This backing pad is installed by metalworking trades, fabricators, and maintenance technicians who use quick-change abrasive systems for weld blending, deburring, and surface conditioning tasks.

This backing pad is suited for shop and field use wherever Power-Lock quick-change abrasive discs are employed. Typical applications include weld seam blending, light stock removal, and surface conditioning on metal substrates. The quick-change interface allows for fast disc swaps without additional tools, reducing downtime during repetitive finishing operations. It is appropriate for both production shop environments and on-site maintenance and repair work.
