Rigid Backer Pads

Alpha Professional Tools(R) first introduced rubber backer pads with the AEP-458 electric polisher to promote the concept of wet polishing, which then became the accepted method of polishing. Alpha(R) recognized the need to add a rigid version of this backer pad to its product line for straight edge or flat surface polishing applications. We realized that Ceramica, with a flexible backer pad, was too flexible for these applications and produced wavy finishes.

Features

  • High-Quality Backer Pad Is Super Rigid and Flat
  • Eliminates The Wavy Finish When Polishing
  • Hook and Loop Backed with A Long Life
  • The Rigidness of The Pad Enables Work in Small Areas Such As Corners or Staircases
  • Accepts Polishing Pads, Sandpaper and Felt Wheels
  • Choice Among Fabricators, Tile Contractors, Monumentalists and Restoration Workers
  • Fits On Most Popular Polishers and Grinders
