Q: What does the multi-hole pattern on this backing pad do?
It lets dust pass through the pad and into the sander's collection system as you work, instead of trapping debris between the pad and the sanding disc.

To help your sander yield high-quality, consistent results, this soft 5" grip-faced Abranet vacuum pad is highly resistant to wear and deformation through extended use.
