Flexovit® SK5045 5xM14-2 FIRM Cooling Ribs Backing Pad for Resin Fiber Sanding Discs
The Flexovit® SK5045 FIRM Cooling Ribs Backing Pad is engineered to deliver maximum durability, stability, and cooling efficiency in demanding sanding and grinding operations. With a 5-inch diameter and an M14-2 threaded arbor, this backing pad is purpose-built for use with resin fiber sanding discs, offering secure attachment and consistent performance under high-pressure applications.
Its firm construction ensures maximum disc support, making it ideal for aggressive grinding, weld removal, and heavy stock reduction. Unlike flexible backing pads, the SK5045 maintains a rigid, stable surface that enhances control and precision when applying pressure. The addition of integrated cooling ribs allows heat to dissipate efficiently during prolonged use, preventing overheating, extending disc life, and maintaining consistent finish quality.
Constructed from rugged, heat-resistant materials, the SK5045 backing pad is designed to withstand continuous high-RPM operation without warping or imbalance. The M14-2 arbor connection provides a secure, industry-standard fit for European grinders, ensuring quick attachment and fast disc changes to keep productivity high. Its firm design paired with cooling technology makes it an essential choice for professionals tackling tough, extended grinding jobs.
The SK5045 is suitable for use on stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, and non-ferrous metals, and is trusted by professionals across metal fabrication, aerospace, automotive, shipbuilding, and heavy industrial maintenance. Whether removing weld seams, grinding rust and scale, or preparing surfaces for coatings, this backing pad delivers reliable results every time.
Backed by Flexovit’s reputation for producing premium abrasives and accessories, the SK5045 5xM14-2 FIRM Cooling Ribs Backing Pad for Resin Fiber Sanding Discs combines strength, cooling efficiency, and long-lasting performance. When paired with Flexovit resin fiber discs, it provides an optimal solution for high-productivity grinding in the most demanding environments.
