Sanding pad MODECO MN-73-172 screw-type plastic backing pad for abrasive mesh 105×230 mm

MODECO MN-73-172 screw-type plastic backing pad is designed to work with abrasive mesh sized 105×230 mm. The pad offers a flat, stable mounting surface and secures mesh abrasive sheets by a threaded connection, making it suitable for use with manual and machine sanding setups that accept this pad format. It is intended for surface preparation tasks such as leveling, smoothing plaster, removing old paint and finishing wood surfaces when abrasive mesh is preferred.

Advantages

The plastic construction provides a lightweight yet sturdy support for abrasive mesh, reducing operator fatigue during extended use. The screw-type threaded attachment ensures a secure and reliable connection to compatible sanding machines or holders. Its dimensions match standard 105×230 mm mesh abrasives, allowing for easy replacement and consistent contact across the working surface. The pad is suitable for both coarse material removal and finer finishing when used with appropriate mesh grit.

Suitable for

• Sanding and smoothing plaster and drywall surfaces
• Removal of old paint and surface coatings
• Wood surface preparation and finishing
• Machine or manual sanding tasks that use 105×230 mm abrasive mesh

Key specifications

• Compatible abrasive mesh size: 105 × 230 mm
• Mounting type: screw / threaded attachment
• Material: plastic backing for reduced weight
• Shape: flat rectangular pad sized for mesh sheet support

How to use

Attach the pad to a compatible sanding machine or manual holder using the threaded connection, ensuring the thread engages fully and the pad sits flat. Position a 105×230 mm abrasive mesh sheet over the pad and secure it according to the mesh fastening method appropriate for the pad and machine (for example, clamp or adhesive contact where applicable). Operate the sanding tool at recommended speeds for the chosen abrasive grit and material, applying even pressure and moving consistently to avoid gouging. Inspect the abrasive mesh regularly and replace when worn or clogged to maintain effective sanding performance.

Usage recommendations

Use protective equipment such as dust masks, safety goggles and hearing protection when sanding. Match abrasive mesh grit to the task: coarser grits for rapid material removal, finer grits for smoothing and finishing. Check compatibility of the threaded mount with your sanding tool before use to ensure a secure fit.
