Bosch Professional 2pc Pad Saver Ø150 mm – Backing Pad Protection for Random Orbital Sanders

Overview

The Bosch Pad Saver is engineered for professionals who rely on random orbital sanding with net abrasives. It sits between the abrasive disc and the backing pad, acting as a protective barrier that helps maintain a consistent sanding surface as workloads intensify. While compact, this accessory can influence the feel of each pass, offering steadier contact and a predictable disc trajectory across tasks from finishing to shaping. The result is a smoother workflow, especially when you switch discs frequently or work on extended sessions where the backing pad bears the brunt of wear.

Key benefits

• Extends the backing pad's lifetime, particularly under heavy loads.
• Provides a strong hook-and-loop protection layer for reliable disc attachment.
• Optimises adhesion between the abrasive disc and the backing pad, promoting consistent performance.
• Designed for net abrasives used with random orbital sanders, delivering compatibility and ease of use.

In practice

In real-world use, the Pad Saver acts as a protective shield, helping to preserve the pad’s surface and shape during demanding sanding tasks. The rugged layer supports stable disc alignment, which can reduce slips and interruptions. By enhancing the bond between disc and pad, it helps maintain even material removal and a cleaner finish across longer sessions with varied abrasives.

The package includes two Pad Savers sized for Ø150 mm backing pads, making it convenient to equip both tools or have a spare ready for quick swaps between jobs.
