OVERVIEW

Smooth Sanding with the Right Foundation

As a welder, you know that your sanding disc is only as good as the pad behind it. The Walter 15D062 6-Inch Backing Pad is designed to give you the control and consistency you need when prepping surfaces or blending welds. If you are running a grinder with an M14 spindle—common on many high-end or European model tools—this is the exact pad you need to get back to work. No more trying to force-fit incompatible threads; this pad screws on securely and runs true.

What sets this pad apart is the way it feels while you grind. It is crafted from a high-quality, impact-resistant plastic that offers just the right amount of flex. When you are feathering a weld or working on a radiused edge, that flexibility allows the disc to hug the metal without gouging. It absorbs vibration, which means less fatigue for your hands and arms at the end of a long shift. The material is also tough enough to handle the heat, so it won't warp or get sloppy when you are pushing it hard.

Changing discs is straightforward, and the pad provides a solid, flat backing that helps you use the entire surface of your abrasive. Whether you are stripping rust, taking down a heavy bead, or finishing stainless steel, the support provided by the 15D062 ensures your abrasive discs cut aggressively and wear evenly. Upgrade your setup with a backing pad that matches the quality of your work and the specs of your machine.
