Abrasive Pad Holder Expert+ EXPERT PACA ABS with 8 mm white felt backing, 280×140 mm

The Expert+ EXPERT PACA ABS abrasive pad holder is a handheld sanding and polishing accessory designed for use with sanding pads and discs. Constructed from ABS plastic, it provides a rigid, lightweight support for manual or machine-assisted finishing operations. The pad holder features an 8 mm white felt backing with a contact area of 280×140 mm, intended for tasks that require a soft felt surface for final finishing, polishing, or applying compounds to wood, metal and composite surfaces.

Advantages

The ABS body offers durability and low weight, making prolonged manual use more comfortable while maintaining consistent pressure distribution. The 8 mm felt backing ensures a soft, conforming contact with the workpiece to reduce surface marring and to facilitate even application of polishing compounds or fine abrasives. Its rectangular 280×140 mm contact area provides a broad working surface for smoothing larger areas efficiently.

Suitable for

• Manual sanding and polishing of wooden furniture and panels
• Finishing and buffing metal surfaces after initial grinding
• Applying polishing compounds and fine abrasives on composites
• Machine-assisted sanding where a felt backing is required for soft contact

Key specifications

• Material of holder: ABS plastic
• Felt backing thickness: 8 mm (white felt)
• Contact area dimensions: 280 × 140 mm
• Intended use: manual and machine-assisted sanding and polishing
• Compatibility: sanding pads and discs designed for felt-backed holders

How to use

Attach an appropriately sized sanding pad or polishing disc to the felt backing surface, ensuring even placement across the 280×140 mm contact area. Hold the ABS handle or mount the holder in a compatible machine fixture, then apply steady, even pressure while moving across the workpiece. For polishing, use light passes with the polishing compound spread evenly on the felt surface; for sanding, progress through abrasive grades as needed and keep the pad flat to avoid creating uneven spots.

Usage recommendations

Use clean felt and regularly inspect for wear; replace the felt backing when it becomes compressed or contaminated with abrasive debris. Match abrasive grade and polishing compounds to the substrate (wood, metal or composite) and work progressively from coarser to finer abrasives to achieve an even finish. Avoid excessive heat generation by using moderate speed and pressure during machine-assisted operations.
