Every welder knows that heat kills sanding discs. When a disc gets too hot, it stops cutting and starts glazing over, forcing you to throw it away while it still has grain left. The Walter 15M145 4-1/2" White Turbo Pad is the solution to burning through stacks of fiber discs. It’s not just a piece of plastic; it’s a tool designed to save you money and time in the shop.
The secret is in the ribs. This "Turbo" pad has a textured face that allows air to flow between the pad and the sanding disc while it spins. This airflow acts like a fan, pulling heat away from the metal and the disc itself. Cooler discs cut faster and last way longer. If you are using high-quality discs like the COOLCUT XX, you are wasting money if you mount them on a cheap, flat rubber pad that traps heat. This white pad gives you the right amount of flex for blending welds and finishing surfaces without digging in or gouging the metal.
Designed for standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinders, this pad is tough enough to handle daily abuse in a fabrication shop. The saucer shape helps you hold the grinder at the right angle, making it more comfortable to blend out long seams or clean up surface imperfections. Whether you are working on stainless steel, aluminum, or mild steel, upgrading your backing pad is one of the cheapest ways to improve your grinding performance.
