3M™ High Performance Ribbed Backing Pad – Ø 180 mm, M14
The 3M™ High Performance Backing Pad (PN 64862) is a high-quality, rigid backing pad specifically designed to handle heavy-duty industrial operations where removal rates and heat management are critical to job success.
Product Description
This backing pad features a unique ribbed pattern on the contact surface. This geometric structure allows for the pressure to be concentrated on the individual abrasive grains of the disc, significantly optimizing performance and drastically reducing heat buildup due to friction during intense work.
Compatibility
This backing pad is not a standalone product, but serves as a critical support for the following systems:
- 3M Fibre Discs: This is the reference accessory and ideal support for the entire range of fibre discs produced by 3M.
- 3M™ Cubitron™ II Systems: Specifically optimized to unlock the potential of Cubitron™ II fiber blades (including the 982C and 987C models). Combined use allows for longer blade life and maximum cutting speed, reducing overall operating costs.
- Power Tools: Designed for use on high-powered angle grinders (electric or pneumatic) with a standard M14 threaded connection.
Advantages and Applications
Integrating this pad into your workflow offers tangible benefits in terms of efficiency and quality:
- Increased productivity: The ribbed structure increases the aggressiveness of the cut, allowing the operator to remove more material in less time.
- Cooler Cutting: Advanced design promotes heat dissipation, preventing premature glazing of the abrasive and discoloration or burning of the metal.
- Recommended operations: Grinding heavy welds, deburring, chamfering edges, smoothing large surfaces and removing casting slag or gates.
Technical Specifications
- Overall diameter: 180 mm.
- Mounting type: Central hole with M14 thread.
- Disc fixing system: Via hub and sealing nut (not included).
- Maximum speed: 8,500 rpm.
- Thermal Resistance: Designed to withstand temperatures above 100°C (212°F) .
- Identification codes:
Technical Advice: To achieve maximum consistent performance, make sure the angle grinder you are using is capable of maintaining a stable rotation speed even under heavy load.
