Product Information

Full details

The Faithfull Backing Pad (125mm) is an essential accessory for metalworkers, carpenters, and DIY enthusiasts who require a reliable foundation for abrasive sanding discs on their angle grinder. Engineered for stability, it excels at minimizing vibration during intensive sanding tasks and withstands high-temperature operation without losing its structural integrity. While it offers excellent durability for standard grinding applications, users must ensure their specific angle grinder model is compatible with the M14 x 2 threaded spindle before attempting installation.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this on a 115mm angle grinder?

Yes, as long as the grinder has a standard M14 x 2 spindle. Note that the pad is 125mm, so ensure you have enough clearance in your grinder's safety guard.

What is the maximum speed allowed?

The backing pad is rated for a maximum speed of 10,000 RPM.

Is this suitable for high-heat grinding?

Yes, it is constructed from materials designed to resist high temperatures generated during friction-heavy tasks.

Does it include the locking nut?

The backing pad comes as a standalone unit with a female M14 flange; it does not include the outer locking nut or flange used to secure the sanding disc.

How do I know if it fits my grinder?

Check your angle grinder’s user manual to confirm it uses an M14 threaded spindle. This is the industry standard for most 115mm and 125mm grinders.

Troubleshooting

The pad will not screw onto the spindle.

Verify that your grinder uses an M14 x 2 thread. Check the spindle for debris or damaged threads.

Excessive vibration during use.

Ensure the sanding disc is centered perfectly on the pad. If the pad is damaged or warped, replace it immediately.

The pad keeps coming loose during operation.

Ensure the pad is fully seated against the spindle shoulder and verify that the grinder is not being reversed or stalling during use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable polypropylene design
  • Effective vibration reduction for better control
  • Standard thread makes for easy installation
  • High thermal resistance for consistent performance
  • Reliable at speeds up to 10,000 RPM

Cons

  • Requires an angle grinder with a compatible M14 spindle
  • Limited to 125mm diameter discs only
  • Not suitable for use with non-compatible non-threaded attachments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Ensure your angle grinder is unplugged or the battery is removed before installation.
  2. Locate the M14 threaded spindle on your angle grinder.
  3. Align the backing pad's M14 x 2 female flange with the spindle.
  4. Rotate the pad clockwise until it seats firmly against the spindle shoulder.
  5. Tighten securely using the grinder’s locking tool or hand-tighten until firm, depending on the tool design.

Compatibility

This backing pad is compatible with any angle grinder featuring a standard M14 x 2 threaded spindle. It is designed specifically for 125mm abrasive sanding discs.

Care

To prolong the life of your backing pad, inspect it for cracks or heat damage after every heavy-duty use. Store in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture-related degradation of the polypropylene material. Avoid dropping the pad on hard surfaces, as impact can compromise the threading.
