The CGW 49519 is a 7 inch diameter, 7/8 inch arbor back-up pad designed to support resin fiber abrasive discs during heavy grinding and material finishing tasks. This back-up pad serves as a stable foundation that helps even pressure distribution and reduces heat buildup on the work surface, which can extend the life of grinding discs when used with appropriate grits.
Constructed with a rubber back-up pad featuring spiral ribs, it creates contact points and channels that improve air flow. This design helps blow away grind dust and cool the disc area, contributing to longer disc life—documented as a 30% to 50% life extension in typical use scenarios. The pad’s larger air holes further facilitate cooling, enhancing performance during extended grinding cycles. Users may choose flexible rubber pads for contour work or rigid pads for more aggressive grinding applications, depending on the workpiece geometry and desired finish.
This back-up pad is intended for use with 7/8 inch arbor/grind-tools setups and supports 5 inch discs, aligning with common equipment configurations in facility maintenance and metalworking environments. The package is listed as a single unit, making it straightforward to procure for on-hand spare parts and consistent production workflows. For best results, ensure compatibility with your abrasive disc and grinding tool, and select the pad type (flexible vs rigid) that matches your grinding task and contour requirements.
