Backing Plate Features
-
Heat-dissipating design – Embedded orifices allow airflow to prevent pad overheating from friction and motor heat
-
Durable construction – High-grade plastic body with rubber contact surfaces for stability and vibration dampening
-
Model-specific fitment – Recessed 5" & 6" plates fit Sensei and Sensei Plus spigots; 3" plate features M8 threaded screw for Grasshopper 2.0 and Karate Kid

Why Heat Management Matters
Excessive heat buildup degrades pad performance, reduces compound effectiveness, and can damage paint. The ventilated design of these backing plates promotes airflow between the machine and pad, extending pad life and maintaining consistent cutting or finishing performance throughout your polishing session.
