Norton 636425-43714 Back-up Pad 8 in Norgrip Medium Low Profile

Product Description

The NORTON 636425-43714 is an 8-inch Norgrip back-up pad designed for use with dual-action and random orbital sanders. Engineered in a medium, low-profile configuration, this pad features 8 vacuum holes and 6 screw attachment points to provide secure disc retention and efficient dust extraction during surface preparation work. The low-profile design reduces clearance issues in tight sanding applications, while the Norgrip interface ensures positive engagement between the pad and abrasive disc. It is intended for installation by abrasives technicians, body shop professionals, and trade finishers who require consistent pad performance across extended use cycles.

This back-up pad is suited for surface preparation tasks in automotive body work, woodworking, and general finishing applications where an 8-inch dual-action or random orbital sander is the primary tool. The medium-hardness pad construction supports conformability on moderately contoured surfaces while maintaining abrasive contact uniformity on flat panels. The vacuum hole pattern aligns with compatible dust-shroud and vacuum-assisted sanding systems to minimize airborne particulate at the work surface.

Key Features

• 8-inch Norgrip interface for secure abrasive disc attachment
• Medium hardness rating balances surface conformability with abrasive control
• Low-profile body reduces clearance restrictions in confined sanding areas
• 8 vacuum holes support dust extraction for cleaner work environments
• 6 screw attachment points provide positive mechanical retention
• Sold individually, compatible with dual-action and random orbital sanders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement back-up pad for dual-action and random orbital sanders accepting an 8-inch Norgrip abrasive disc with a matching vacuum hole and screw pattern.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by abrasives technicians or qualified finishing professionals. Before replacing the pad, ensure the sander is fully powered off and disconnected from any air or electrical supply. Secure all screw attachment points evenly to prevent disc wobble or imbalance during operation. Inspect the pad surface for wear, deformation, or damage before each use and replace if the Norgrip interface shows degradation that could cause disc slippage.
