FAQs

• What is a pad holder used for on a floor sander? A pad holder attaches to the base of a floor sander or polisher and lets sanding pads, screens or discs grip securely to the machine so they can be quickly swapped between grits or pad types.
• What’s the difference between a flexi back and a quick release pad holder? A flexi back pad holder uses a flexible driver plate and clutch fitting that bolts directly to the machine, while a quick release version clips on and off without tools, and the two fittings are not interchangeable.
• How do I check a pad holder will fit my sander? Match the pad holder’s diameter, fitting type such as clutch, quick release or bolt on, and the specific machine models it is listed for, since holders from different sander ranges are generally not interchangeable.
• Can any sanding pad or screen be used with a pad holder? Most pad holders use a hook and loop or driver pad system, so sanding discs, screens and polishing pads need a compatible backing to grip the holder correctly.
• When should a worn pad holder be replaced? A pad holder should be replaced once the backing becomes uneven, loses grip or the clutch fitting no longer locks securely, as this can affect sanding results and machine balance.
