RUPES® 980.720/C New Precision Pro Backing Plate 5" Backing Plate W/Screw - iBrid Cordless HLR15 and Corded LHR15 Mark V 5" Polishers ONLY

Upgraded RUPES High-Grip Backing Plate (125mm / 5") – For LHR15V & HLR15 Experience unmatched pad retention and thermal stability with the newly redesigned RUPES 125mm (5") High-Grip Backing Plate. Specifically engineered as a crucial upgrade for the newest generation of BigFoot polishers, this backing plate solves the weak hook-and-loop adhesion issues found on early-release Mark V and iBrid models. Upgraded with a heavy-duty Velcro system, this plate delivers the legendary, rock-solid grip you expect, matching the reliable holding power of the classic LHR15 Mark III. Key Features & Benefits Maximum Pad Adhesion: Features a completely overhauled micro-hook system that forcefully grips 5-inch foam, microfiber, and wool pads, completely eliminating pad slip and preventing unexpected detachment during high-speed rotation. Advanced Heat Management: Built with upgraded, thermally resistant materials that drastically reduce heat transfer from the machine to the pad face. This prevents the hook-and-loop surface from prematurely melting or failing during intense, long-duration paint correction. Optimized Power Transfer: A stronger bond between the backing plate and the pad ensures more consistent rotation, superior leveling power, and reduced vibration translating through the machine.
