Materials & Construction
This is a 125mm/5" RUPES PrecisionPro backing plate built for random orbital polishers, using a Velcro face for quick pad changes and an M8 bolt fitting for a secure, direct connection to your polisher.
Product Description
Why you'll want it
- Change pads quickly and securely. The Velcro face lets you swap polishing pads fast. Once a pad is on, it stays put while the polisher runs.
- A firmer, steadier backing plate. The polyurethane face is heat-welded to the hook-and-loop attachment. The maker says this improves solidity, stability and durability.
- Less tiring on long polishing jobs. The maker says the new design reduces operator fatigue during long sessions, and its balance helps you keep control.
- Polish before winter storage. Fall is a good time to polish your boat before winter storage, so the finish is ready when spring comes. This plate helps you get a more refined result.
What it is
The RUPES PrecisionPro Backing Plate is a 125mm (5-inch) plate made by RUPES for random orbital polishers. It has a Velcro face to hold your polishing pad and an M8 bolt fitting to connect it to the polisher. The record lists compatibility with the iBrid HLR15, LHR15 MarkV and LHR125E.
