(BAC) Velocity Back Up Pad Velstick 150mm x 5/16 Thread

Durable Backing Pad for Surface Conditioning & Sanding Discs

Velocity Back Up Pad 150mm x 5/16 Thread is a heavy-duty backing pad designed to securely support sanding and surface conditioning discs for controlled grinding, blending and finishing.
Manufactured to provide the correct balance of firmness and flexibility, this back up pad ensures even pressure distribution across the disc, helping achieve consistent results while reducing the risk of gouging or uneven wear. The 150mm diameter offers broad surface contact, making it suitable for efficient finishing on medium to large work areas. Fitted with a standard 5/16 threaded arbor, it is compatible with a wide range of angle grinders and finishing tools commonly used in industrial environments. Compared to using incorrect or worn backing solutions, a dedicated Velocity back up pad helps extend disc life, improve operator control and enhance overall safety. It is widely used in fabrication, maintenance and general metalworking applications across Australian workshops where reliability and repeatable performance are essential.
