overview of pad savers
A pad saver is a protective layer placed between the sanding disc and the sander's backing pad. Its main purpose is to extend the life of both the backing pad and the sanding disc by minimizing wear caused by sanding.
benefits and differences
Using a pad saver reduces friction and heat buildup, preventing the adhesive that holds the sanding disc from breaking down. This helps avoid slipping, peeling, or damage to both the sanding disc and backing pad, ultimately saving costs on replacements.
Additionally, pad savers reduce dust and debris accumulation on the backing pad, improving the sander's overall performance by lowering the risk of clogging or overheating.
Difference between pad saver and interface pad:
A pad saver is a thin protective layer placed directly on the backing pad to protect it from excessive wear, especially when using coarse abrasives. It is typically made of foam or felt.
An interface pad is a thicker, cushioned pad placed between the sanding disc and backing pad to provide a softer, more flexible sanding surface. This helps reduce the risk of damage or uneven sanding and is usually made of foam or rubber.
