3M Xtract Low Profile Back-up Pad, 20465, 152 mm x 9.52 mm x 15.8 mm, External 53 Holes Red Foam, Case of 10

• 3M Xtract proprietrary multi-hole pattern provides superior dust extraction to prevent loading, increase productivity, and provide a cleaner work environment
• 3M Hookit attachment system provides easy disc changes and optimizes disc life
• Low profile soft density beige foam provides flexibility to conform to a variety of complex surface geometries
• Recommended for finishing applications using fine grade abrasives

3M Xtract Hookit Low Profile Finishing Back-up Pad is constructed of soft density foam with a 10 degree blunt tapered edge and is recommended for finishing applications on flat or contoured surfaces. Part of the 3M Xtract Series, designed for optimal dust removal, enabling a vacuum to extract dust off the workpiece to prolong disc life and enhance productivity. Use this disc pad with grades 220 and higher 3M Xtract Hookit Discs (sold separately). The soft density foam on the 3M Xtract Hookit Low Profile Finishing Back-up Pad provides additional conformability for final finishing applications where the workpiece has previously been leveled and refined using coarser grade abrasives on firm or medium back up pads. When used with a vacuum and a 3M Xtract(TM) abrasive disc, the series of uniquely designed holes and channels allows dust to be pulled through the holes and away from the sanding surface to prevent loading, increase productivity, and provide a cleaner work environment. The disc pad has external threads compatible with an orbital or random orbital sander. Our proprietary multi-hole pattern works with a vacuum to help eliminate dust from the disc, workpiece and air. Sandpaper discs cut better and last longer when dust isn’t loading the cutting surface of the abrasives. Reducing dust is easier than ever with 3M Xtract Discs, designed for optimal dust removal. For maximum dust extraction, use this disc with a 3M Xtract Hookit Back-up pad and a random orbital sander with vacuum (both sold separately). Our proprietary multi-hole pattern on 3M Xtract(TM) products removes dust at a higher rate than 5- or 6-hole products. This hole design doesn't even require alignment of holes with the back-up pad (which is attached to a random orbital sander and sold separately), making disc changes quick and simple. The 3M Hookit attachment system uses a hook and loop design that makes disc changes fast and easy. All of this adds up to improved productivity and reduced material consumption. Reducing dust dramatically increases the cutting efficiency and life of the disc, which ultimately reduces operating costs.

Trusted 3M Xtract Model

The 3M Xtract Low Profile Back-up Pad, model 20465, is designed to enhance sanding tasks with its proprietary multi-hole pattern. This pattern helps extract dust efficiently, preventing loading and boosting productivity.

Using this 3M Xtract model ensures a cleaner work environment and longer disc life. Its Hookit attachment system also allows quick and easy disc changes, optimizing your workflow.

Precise Size And Dimensions

This back-up pad measures 152 mm x 9.52 mm x 15.8 mm, providing a low profile that fits well on various sanders. Its size supports flexibility and control during finishing applications.

The dimensions make it compatible with orbital or random orbital sanders, ensuring it conforms well to flat or contoured surfaces for smooth results.

Effective Dust Extraction System

The external 53 holes in the red foam backing pad are key to its superior dust extraction capabilities. This design works with a vacuum to pull dust away from the sanding surface.

By reducing dust buildup, the pad helps maintain cutting efficiency and extends the life of abrasive discs, especially when used with 3M Xtract Hookit discs.

Flexible Foam Backing

The low profile soft density beige foam offers flexibility to conform to complex surface shapes. This makes it ideal for finishing work on both flat and contoured surfaces.

This foam backing supports fine grade abrasives, providing a smooth finish after coarser sanding steps, enhancing the overall quality of your work.

Convenient Pack Size Included

This product comes in a pack of 10 pads per case, making it easy to stock up for ongoing projects. The pack size supports consistent availability for professional or DIY use.

Having multiple pads on hand ensures you can maintain productivity without frequent reordering, especially when paired with compatible 3M sanding discs and tools.
