Stayer 012.86 Rubber Backing Pad for Polishers 170mm

The Stayer 012.86 rubber backing pad is a professional-grade accessory specifically engineered for use with polishers. Measuring 170 mm in diameter, this robust rubber disc serves as a stable and reliable foundation for attaching various polishing pads and finishing accessories. Its construction is focused on providing consistent performance during intensive surface treatment tasks, ensuring that your polishing media remains securely fastened to the tool throughout the entire operation.

Advantages

This backing pad is manufactured from high-quality, durable rubber that withstands the mechanical stresses of regular polishing work. The material composition offers the right balance of flexibility and rigidity, which helps in achieving uniform pressure distribution across the surface being treated. By providing a secure attachment point, it minimizes vibrations and enhances the overall control of the polisher, leading to more precise and efficient results in both automotive and industrial environments.

Suitable for

• Automotive paint restoration and polishing
• Industrial surface finishing and buffing
• General maintenance tasks requiring a 170 mm backing interface

When it may not be suitable

This backing pad is not intended for use with polishing tools that require a different diameter or a specific mounting thread system not compatible with this model. It is also not suitable for heavy-duty grinding or sanding applications that require rigid metal backing plates rather than flexible rubber.

Key specifications

• Diameter: 170 mm
• Material: Durable rubber
• Compatibility: Standard polishers

How to use

To use the Stayer 012.86, ensure your polisher is disconnected from the power source. Align the backing pad with the spindle of your polisher and screw it on securely until it is firmly seated. Once attached, apply your chosen polishing pad or bonnet to the surface of the rubber disc. Ensure the pad is centered correctly to prevent imbalance during operation. Always verify that the attachment is secure before switching on the tool.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the spindle thread compatibility of your polisher
• Confirm that your polishing accessories are sized for a 170 mm backing pad
• Ensure the application does not require a rigid backing plate

Usage recommendations

Always inspect the rubber surface for signs of wear or damage before each use. Replace the backing pad if you notice cracks, deformation, or loss of adhesion to ensure safe and effective operation.
