Hook & Loop backing pad


Recommended Posts

Guys....

If I can draw on the vast experience of forum members then I hope I can find the answer I need...

Many years ago I purchased a DeWalt DW100 table top bandsaw with a built in 125mm disc sander. It probably my most sensible investment, not only for modelling but for many other jobs.

The problem I have is that the adhesive on the hook & loop backing plate is not what it was and when I pull off the sanding discs themselves it starts to part company with the metal disc on the saw.

Does anyone know where I might find a new loop disc to stick on the bandsaw? I have asked all my usual suppliers of sanding discs but no luck.

I have found Hook & Loop up to 180mm wide but this is a fabric based material and may not have the strength needed. The disc on the saw appears to be bonded to a heavy card with a self adhesive back.

I have tried removing the backing pad from a power drill based backing pad but it is difficult without damaging it and keeping the power of the adhesive intact.

Any and all help appreciated.......
