Pro-source 5590012511PRO Hook Loop Disc Backing Pad 15000 Rpm

Product Description

The PRO-SOURCE 5590012511PRO is a hook and loop disc backing pad designed for use with angle grinders and rotary tools in surface preparation, finishing, and blending applications. The pad accepts a standard M6 x 1.00 thread mount and features a 0.25-inch shank diameter, making it compatible with common rotary tool and grinder spindle configurations. Rated to 15,000 maximum RPM, this backing pad is suited for high-speed material removal and finishing work. It measures 1 inch in diameter and 0.25 inches in height, offering a compact profile for tight-access work. Installation and replacement are tool-free on the abrasive disc side thanks to the hook and loop fastening system. Machinists, fabricators, metalworkers, and general tradespeople are the typical end users.

This backing pad is used in metal fabrication shops, automotive body work, woodworking, and general surface finishing environments. It is appropriate for both bench and handheld rotary tool setups where a small-diameter, high-RPM hook and loop interface is required. The M6 x 1.00 thread shank fits a wide range of die grinders and rotary tools that use that spindle standard. It is well suited for detail grinding, spot finishing, and material blending tasks where quick disc changes are an advantage. Sold individually, it is a direct replacement or spare for worn backing pads in active shop use.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the M6 x 1.00 shank into the tool spindle and tightening by hand or with an appropriate wrench to the tool manufacturer's specified torque. Always power down and disconnect the tool from its power source before mounting or removing the backing pad. Confirm the tool's rated RPM does not exceed the 15,000 RPM maximum rating of the pad before operation. Inspect the hook and loop surface for wear or contamination before attaching an abrasive disc to ensure secure retention during use.
