Donkey 3 Step Inline Polishing Pad - 4", Step 2
The Weha Step-2 Hook & Loop polishing pad is designed to provide a smooth, refined finish on a wide range of materials, from natural stones like granite to engineered surfaces like quartz. It’s built for horizontal and vertical polishing machines, allowing fabricators and finishers to get consistent, professional results on their stone surfaces. The easy attachment via hook and loop makes for efficient pad changes, and the white resin bond ensures an effective balance between cut and finish.
The Weha Hook & Loop Step-2 Polishing Pad you mentioned seems like a great choice for polishing stone surfaces, particularly in professional environments where precision and efficiency are key. Here's a breakdown of what makes this pad effective:
Designed for Horizontal and Vertical Machines:
Works with both horizontal machines like Comandulli and Montresor edge polishers, and vertical machines like Sasso Flying Flat and Park Industries FastBack. This makes it versatile for various setups.
Step-2 Polishing Pad:
As a Step-2 pad, it’s typically used for refining the surface after the heavy cutting (Step 1). It will smooth out any remaining imperfections, swirls, or micro-marring, giving the stone a beautiful, glossy finish.
Material Compatibility:
Ideal for a wide range of materials, including marble, granite, quartz, porcelain, ceramic, and sintered stone. This gives it broad utility across many types of stone surfaces, making it a go-to for stone fabricators.
Hook & Loop Backing:
The hook & loop design allows for quick and easy attachment and removal of the pad. You won’t need to deal with snail lock holders, which can save time and effort during polishing sessions.
Bond Type - White Resin:
The white resin bond provides a balanced level of abrasiveness, ensuring that the pad is effective in refining and polishing without being too aggressive. It’s well-suited for the final stages of the polishing process.
Size and Shape:
The 4-inch diameter is perfect for working in smaller, more intricate areas. It also makes it easier to control the polishing process, especially for detailed work on edges or corners.
Lightweight:
At just 0.100 lbs, it's relatively light, which should contribute to ease of handling and reduce operator fatigue during long polishing sessions.
