6" Backup Pad Vinyl Faced Medium

The Mirka 106 backup pad is a top quality molded polymer construction designed for automotive surface preparation.

Professionals and DIY users working on paint correction or finishing tasks will find this pad suited to their needs.

Threaded Attachment Compatibility

The 5/16 x 24 thread pattern determines which backing plates or machines accept this pad without adapters. Buyers whose equipment uses a different thread size or proprietary mounting system cannot use this pad as supplied. The vinyl face and medium foam density are fixed characteristics that cannot be changed for softer or firmer applications. Users needing alternative densities or face materials must select a different model.

Questions about this item

How often will the vinyl facing on this 6-inch backup pad need replacing under regular polishing work?

The vinyl facing is integral to the molded polymer construction; replace the pad when the surface shows wear or no longer holds abrasive discs securely.

What is the first limit reached when running this pad continuously on a 5/16 x 24 threaded tool?

Heat buildup in the medium-density foam is the first limit; prolonged high-speed use softens the foam and reduces backing support.
