The Rockwell Metal Sanding Pad delivers rugged, precision-focused performance for metalworking tasks where speed and accuracy matter. This 1 in. sanding pad runs up to 20,000 rpm and arrives as a practical 2-pack, so you’re never caught with downtime while you tackle multiple projects.
Key features
-
1 in. diameter with a 1 in. arbor for tight-space control and compatibility with standard 1 in. hook-and-loop discs.
-
Durable metal construction engineered to withstand heat and abrasive wear at high speeds, making it ideal for steel, aluminum, and other metals.
-
Hook-and-loop attachment enables quick, tool-free disc changes and reliable mounting during continuous work.
-
High-speed capability optimized for fast material removal without sacrificing finish quality (up to 20,000 rpm).
-
Two-pack provides a ready backup pad, keeping your workflow uninterrupted across back-to-back tasks.
What you can do with it
- Deburr and smooth welds on metal fabrication projects such as brackets, frames, and automotive parts.
- Remove rust and oxide layers from small components without affecting adjacent surfaces.
- Refine edges and blend transitions in tight corners where larger pads can’t reach.
- Prepare surfaces for polishing or painting by creating a consistent, uniform base finish.
Usage tips
- Start with a coarser grit to shape, then move to finer grits for a refined finish.
- Apply light, even pressure and keep the tool moving to prevent heat buildup and gouging.
- Regularly inspect the pad for wear and replace when the backing shows fatigue—consistency is key to a quality finish.
Compatibility and care
Designed for tools with a 1 in. arbor, the Rockwell metal sanding pad accepts standard 1 in. hook-and-loop discs. For best results, pair with compatible Rockwell discs sized for precision metal finishing to maximize durability and finish quality.
