Viper FlexFoam Hook & Loop Back-Up Pads

Improve polishing control, reduce vibration, and achieve smoother finishes with flexible foam-backed polishing pads designed for professional stone fabrication.

Looking for Better Pad Control and Less Bounce While Polishing?

Viper FlexFoam Hook & Loop Back-Up Pads are engineered with a rigid backing plate and a specially designed foam layer that absorbs vibration while maintaining the perfect balance of flexibility and support. Unlike standard rigid backers, the FlexFoam design conforms to edges and profiles without excessive bending, allowing fabricators to produce flatter, more consistent finishes with greater control.

The integrated hook-and-loop attachment system makes polishing pad changes fast and simple, while the industry-standard 5/8"-11 threaded arbor fits most professional wet polishers and variable-speed stone polishers.

Whether you're polishing flat countertop surfaces, sink cutouts, ogee edges, or intricate profiles, Viper FlexFoam Back-Up Pads help improve polishing performance while extending the life of your polishing pads.

Why Choose Viper FlexFoam Hook & Loop Back-Up Pads?

A quality back-up pad plays a critical role in achieving consistent polishing results. Viper FlexFoam Back-Up Pads combine a rigid support plate with a carefully engineered foam layer that cushions vibration while maintaining excellent control over the polishing surface. The result is smoother finishes, improved operator comfort, and better overall polishing performance.

Because back-up pads naturally wear over time, many professional fabricators replace them regularly to maintain maximum polishing accuracy and extend the life of their polishing pads. The FlexFoam design offers an excellent balance of flexibility, durability, and precision for both everyday fabrication and detailed finishing work.

Whether you're polishing granite countertops, engineered stone, or intricate edge profiles, Viper FlexFoam Back-Up Pads help deliver professional-quality results from start to finish.
