Polishing Rubber Backing Pad 100 mm M14 GEKO G78902 for Hook-and-Loop Discs (10/100)

Rubber polishing backing pad GEKO G78902 with 100 mm diameter and M14 thread is designed to hold hook-and-loop (velcro) polishing and sanding discs on angle grinders and polishers with an M14 spindle. The pad provides a resilient interface that helps maintain consistent contact between the abrasive or polishing disc and the work surface, reducing chatter and improving finish quality. Supplied in a pack configuration indicated as (10/100), the backing pad fits standard 100 mm hook-and-loop discs and is suitable for a variety of surface preparation and finishing tasks.

Advantages

The rubber construction offers controlled flexibility to conform to slightly curved surfaces while maintaining enough stiffness for effective material removal or polishing. The hook-and-loop face ensures quick and secure attachment and replacement of abrasive or polishing discs, reducing downtime. The M14 threaded mounting provides universal compatibility with most angle grinders and polishers that accept M14 spindles. The 100 mm diameter balances working area and maneuverability, making the pad suitable for both detailed and broader surface work.

Suitable for

• Polishing metal surfaces, including automotive paint and chrome
• Fine sanding and surface preparation on wood and composites
• Removing oxidation and minor surface defects
• Matting and finishing after filler or primer application
• General-purpose abrasive or polishing work with 100 mm hook-and-loop discs

Key specifications

• Backing pad diameter: 100 mm
• Mount type: M14 threaded connection for angle grinders and polishers
• Attachment system: Hook-and-loop (velcro) face for discs
• Material: Rubber body providing elastic backing and vibration damping
• Intended disc type: 100 mm hook-and-loop sanding and polishing discs

How to use

Ensure the tool spindle is stationary and disconnected from power before fitting the backing pad. Screw the pad onto the M14 spindle until hand-tight, then secure according to the tool manufacturer's instructions. Attach the appropriate 100 mm hook-and-loop disc by pressing it firmly onto the pad so the abrasive engages the velcro surface. During use, operate the grinder or polisher at recommended speeds for the chosen disc and material, applying light to moderate pressure and keeping the pad moving to avoid excessive heat buildup or local damage to the workpiece. After use, allow the pad to cool before removing discs or changing attachments.

Usage recommendations

Use discs rated for the speed of your grinder or polisher and inspect the backing pad for wear or damage before each use. For best results on curved or contoured surfaces, select flexible polishing pads and apply consistent, low-pressure passes. Store the backing pads and hook-and-loop discs in a dry, cool place to maintain adhesion and material properties.
