Abrasive Backing Pad Andre CBS 125 mm Soft for 125mm Discs, model 830007

The Andre CBS 125 mm Soft backing pad is designed for use with 125 mm (5-inch) hook-and-loop abrasive and sanding discs. The soft construction provides cushioning that helps the abrasive follow contours and reduces aggressive material removal, resulting in a more even surface finish. It is compatible with angle grinders and sanders that accept standard 125 mm backing pads and is intended for sanding and polishing tasks on metal, wood and composite materials.

Advantages

The soft foam layer absorbs pressure fluctuations and minimizes the risk of gouging on irregular surfaces while maintaining good disc contact. Hook-and-loop fastening enables quick disc changes and secure fit during operation. Its 125 mm diameter makes it suitable for common 5-inch discs and accessible for a wide range of handheld machines. The tolerant construction improves finish quality when working on curved or profiled surfaces.

Suitable for

• Sanding and shaping metal surfaces
• Smoothing and finishing woodwork
• Polishing and light material removal on composites
• Contour sanding on curved or profiled parts
• Use with angle grinders and disc sanders accepting 125 mm backing pads

Key specifications

• Pad diameter: 125 mm (5 inches)
• Design: soft foam cushioning for contour following
• Attachment system: hook-and-loop surface for quick disc changes
• Intended use: sanding and polishing on metal, wood, and composites
• Compatibility: for tools accepting 125 mm backing pads

How to use

Attach a compatible 125 mm hook-and-loop abrasive disc to the backing pad, ensuring the disc is centered and fully engaged with the loop surface. Mount the backing pad to the tool according to the machine manufacturer's instructions and verify secure attachment before operation. Begin sanding at low to moderate speed, applying even pressure and moving the tool along the workpiece to follow contours. For polishing applications, use appropriate polishing pads and compounds with the same mounting procedure.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the backing pad and abrasive disc before each use for wear or damage. Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye, hearing, and respiratory protection) and follow the tool manufacturer's speed and safety guidelines. Replace the backing pad if the foam loses elasticity or the hook-and-loop fastening becomes ineffective to maintain consistent sanding performance.
