3M Xtract Low Profile Finishing Back-up Pad, 20290, 127 mm x 17.5 mmx 7.93 mm, External 44 Holes, 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 Brand

The 3M Xtract Low Profile Finishing Back-up Pad, model 20290, is designed to deliver reliable performance. This pad is part of the 3M Xtract series, known for its proprietary multi-hole pattern that enhances dust extraction and keeps your workspace cleaner.

Using this 3M Xtract pad helps increase productivity by preventing dust buildup on abrasives. The Hookit attachment system featured in this model makes disc changes quick and easy, optimizing disc life and reducing downtime.

Precise Size And Dimensions

This finishing back-up pad measures 127 mm in diameter with a thickness of 17.5 mm by 7.93 mm, providing a low profile design. These exact dimensions ensure compatibility with various sanding tools and help maintain control during finishing tasks.

The external 44-hole pattern supports efficient dust extraction while fitting orbital or random orbital sanders. Its size and hole configuration make it suitable for detailed finishing on both flat and contoured surfaces.

Optimized Finishing Applications

Recommended for finishing applications using fine grade abrasives, this pad works best with 3M Xtract Hookit discs rated 220 grit and higher. Its soft density beige foam offers flexibility to conform to complex surface geometries, improving finish quality.

The low profile and 10-degree blunt tapered edge allow smooth contact with surfaces, making it ideal for final finishing after coarser abrasives have been used. This ensures a refined, professional result on your workpiece.

Effective Dust Extraction System

The proprietary multi-hole pattern with 44 external holes enables superior dust extraction. This design works with a vacuum to pull dust away from the sanding surface, preventing loading and extending disc life.

By reducing dust buildup, the pad helps maintain cutting efficiency and creates a cleaner work environment. It’s especially effective when paired with a random orbital sander equipped with a vacuum system, both sold separately.

Convenient Pack Size Included

This product comes in a pack of 10 pads per case, providing good value for professionals and hobbyists alike. Having multiple pads on hand ensures you can maintain productivity without frequent reordering.

The pack size supports consistent finishing work across multiple projects, and the Hookit attachment system allows fast disc changes, reducing downtime and material waste during sanding tasks.
