Silverline108628 Hook and Loop Backing Pad 125 x 2 mm

I must admit for a 'cheap and cheerful' item like this, I was slightly surprised to find it works very well! In rare moments do I use this on my angle-grinder as its mostly 'other' sanders I have in my 'tool toy cupboard I use but when the time calls to do a specific purpose or job, this comes in handy. The balance is quite good as one, rather more expensive 'big brand' named item similar to this one, I brought some years ago now went all over the place as I could not hold it as it was so unbalanced and went into the rubbish bin but this, a third of the price of that one, behaves itself very well - impressed is the word I am looking for here.

Wish I had bought this years ago cuts sanding to a tea good adhesion to discs saves amazing amount of time with good Finnish will definitely buy again

Cheap and cheerful. It works perfectly on a polisher. I would not like to try it on an angle grinder. Using a sanding disc or polishing pad at grinder speeds would be courting disaster. Very good value for money.

discs fitting well,grip well too thanks

Getting nice results with 80 grit pads using a 4inch grinder.

Takes off a lot of material on an angle grinder with sanding discs and leaves a nice flat and sanded finish. Goes through a sanding pad in a few minutes though due to the high speed and heat. Also melts the plastic loops on the disc if it gets too hot. Cheap but does what it's supposed to do

Ideal for my purpose which is a diy drill powered sander. Recommended.

the pads fits tightly onto the grinder and there's no wobble at all at full speed, very well made. the only downfall is it is slightly thin at the edges so this makes keeping it 100% flat is tricky on I bigger surface.
