    Materials & Construction

    This is a genuine RUPES SMARTFIX connector pin that lets double-sided rotary pads snap onto the backing plate instantly, eliminating threading and speeding up pad changes during polishing work.

    Product Description

    Why you'll want it

    • No tools needed for pad changes. Press the pad onto the backing plate until it clicks and locks. To take it off, pull the pad away. You do not need to spin anything or reach for a tool.
    • No threads to cross or overtighten. The pad does not screw on, so there are no threads to line up wrong and nothing to overtighten. The record says the system removes that risk.
    • Made for detailing, body shop and marine work. The record says SMARTFIX is designed for professionals in detailing, body shops and marine environments, where pad changes need to be quick.
    • Ready for the fall polish before winter storage. Fall is a good time to polish a boat before it goes into winter storage. Quicker pad changes mean less time between each step of the job.

    What it is

    The RUPES Smart Connector 5/8" Pin is a connector pin made by RUPES. It is built for the SMARTFIX quick-change system, which mounts double-sided rotary pads onto a backing plate without threads or tools. The pin measures 5/8".
