Walter Surface Technologies 04X302 Disc Backing Pad

Product Description

The WALTER SURFACE TECHNOLOGIES 04X302 is a disc backing pad designed to support twist disc abrasives in angle grinder and die grinder applications. Built from molded polyurethane, it offers medium density flex to keep abrasive discs seated evenly against work surfaces. The pad accepts a removable 1/4-inch shank, making tool changes and mandrel swaps straightforward in the field. Rated to 28,000 RPM, it handles the rotational demands of high-speed grinding and surface prep tasks. Licensed tradespeople and surface prep specialists working in fabrication, maintenance, and finishing will find this backing pad a direct fit for twist-style quick-change systems.

This backing pad is suited to light metalworking, weld blending, deburring, and general surface preparation tasks where a twist disc abrasive system is used. The quick-change twist compatibility reduces downtime when cycling through abrasive grits or disc styles on the same tool. It is commonly installed in workshop, job site, and maintenance environments where consistent disc backing support is required across repeated passes.
