Exclusively engineered for rotary machines utilizing a standard 5\/8\" thread, these backing plates act as the crucial foundation between your high-speed polisher and your polishing pads. Whether you are performing aggressive compounding on a large hood or surgically polishing a narrow A-pillar, this versatile lineup ensures you have the exact footprint needed to get the job done efficiently and safely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eConstructed from premium, injection-moulded polyurethane (PU), these plates offer the perfect balance of firmness for consistent downward pressure and elasticity to safely contour to the complex curves of modern vehicles. To combat the extreme temperatures generated by rotary polishing, Maxshine integrated Smart Heat Management technology. This design utilizes a center recess and strategic venting to draw heat away from the paint and the pad, significantly prolonging the lifespan of your foam, microfiber, and wool pads. Featuring ultra-durable micro-hook and loop fastening, these backing plates guarantee a secure grip, even at high RPMs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003eSmart Heat Management:\u003c\/b\u003e Engineered with vertical and horizontal cooling channels and a recessed center hole to actively dissipate heat buildup, preventing clear coat burn-through and premature pad failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003eFlexible Polyurethane Construction:\u003c\/b\u003e Made from highly durable, injection-moulded PU.

Dual Action (DA) polishers require a completely different mounting style (typically a 5\/16\"-24 thread) and are weighted differently to balance the machine's throw.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003eQ: What size pads should I use with these plates?\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA: \u003c\/strong\u003eYou should generally match the backing plate size to the velcro backing of your polishing pad. For safety, it is highly recommended that the foam pad be slightly larger than the backing plate (e.g., using a 5.5-inch or 6-inch pad on a 5-inch plate). This creates a protective foam \"lip\" that prevents the hard edge of the plate from striking the paint if you tilt the machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003eQ: Are these safe for curved surfaces?\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA: \u003c\/strong\u003eYes. While they are \"firm foam\" plates designed for heavy cutting, the injection-moulded polyurethane features a softer, flexible outer edge. This allows the plate to bend slightly and contour to the natural curves of the vehicle, reducing the risk of edge-burning the clear coat on curved body lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"254\" data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003eSearch Keywords:\u003c\/b\u003e Maxshine rotary backing plate, 3022050, 5\/8 thread backing plate, firm foam backing plate, rotary polisher accessories, 5-inch rotary backing plate, 3 inch spot polishing plate, auto detailing supplies, heat dissipating backing plate\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MaxshineUSA","offers":[{"title":"2 inch","offer_id":47388268232939,"sku":"3022050","price":14.49,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 Inch","offer_id":47388268265707,"sku":"3022075","price":15.94,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 Inch","offer_id":47388268298475,"sku":"3022125","price":23.19,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 Inch","offer_id":47388268331243,"sku":"3022150","price":24.64,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0545\/1061\/6745\/files\/2-3-5-6-inch-Rotary-Polisher-Backing-Plate-27.jpg?v=1769712449","url":"https:\/\/www.titanium22.ca\/products\/polisher-backing-plate","provider":"Titanium Tools \u0026 Equipment Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
