Disc Sander Pads | 125mm 8-Hole | Wide 40-3000 Grit Assortment

This pack of 8-hole sanding discs fits most 125mm random orbital sanders. The wide 40-3000 grit range means you can use them on wood, metal, and glass. A ceramic aluminum oxide coating helps stop clogging, making them last longer. Features and Benefits - Standard 8-Hole Pattern - These fit 125mm orbital sanders from Bosch, DeWalt, Makita, and other brands. - Wide Grit Range (40-3000) - This covers everything from taking off a lot of material on wood to fine polishing on metal and glass. - Clog-Resistant Coating - A stearate layer reduces resin and dust buildup, keeping the abrasive cutting well. - Hook and Loop Attachment - This backing is easier than adhesive discs; you can change grits fast and reuse discs later. Applications - Wood and Metal Sanding - Use all the grits to take a project from rough shaping to a smooth surface. - Automotive Finishing - Smooth body filler, blend paint edges, and polish clear coats with the right grits. - Glass and Plastic Polishing - The very fine grits can remove light scratches and make surfaces clear again. Ray L. Carter (Stationary/Industrial Disc Sander) While the full history of the disc sander is complex, Ray L. Carter is often credited with patenting an early version of a stationary disc sander. These powerful machines, typically found in workshops, are used for rapid material removal and shaping. Our 125mm 8-hole disc sander pads, with their wide 40-3000 grit assortment, are ideal for such applications, from aggressive stock removal with 40 grit to fine finishing. The 8-hole pattern supports efficient dust extraction, crucial for maintaining a clean work environment and extending pad life, especially when operating at speeds like 1725 rpm or 3450 rpm. Alex A. Clarke (Portable Specialty Sanders) Alex A. Clarke's contributions further developed the concept of disc sanding, particularly for portable applications. A disc sander is essentially a power tool that uses abrasive discs to smooth, shape, or remove material from surfaces. Our 125mm 8-hole disc sander pads are compatible with various portable disc sanders, offering a comprehensive 40-3000 grit range. This versatility allows users to tackle diverse tasks, from preparing surfaces with a 120 grit pad to achieving ultra-fine finishes. The aluminium oxide material ensures durable and effective sanding across different materials. Arthur N. Emmons (Modern Portable Handheld Disc Sander) Arthur N. Emmons’ work helped pave the way for the modern portable handheld disc sander, a common tool for many trades. These tools are primarily used for sanding and finishing, offering more control than larger stationary units. Our 125mm 8-hole disc sander pads are specifically designed for compatibility with such handheld models. The broad 40-3000 grit assortment provides options for every stage of the sanding process, from initial roughing to final polishing. The 8-hole configuration is essential for effective dust extraction, preventing clogging and ensuring a consistent finish.
