Produce smear-free finishes on your metal work projects by using Bear-Tex Vortex Rapid Prep AO medium grit non-woven standard back-up pad disc, which includes Clean Bond resin technology. The disc has a longer life than competitor discs, due to its strong nylon fiber construction. The Vortex agglomerated aluminum oxide grain supplies cutting power equivalent to coarse grit, yet it still produces a fine finish. The discs work with a variety of metals, such as stainless steels, tool steels, aluminum, iron, fiberglass, composites, carbon steels, super alloys and titanium.

Features
- Proprietary Clean Bond resin technology guarantees smear-free finishes even on high nickel content alloys and reduces loading on aluminum and other soft metals
- Premium high-loft nylon fiber bonded to a strong nylon scrim backing allows a thick layer of resin bond and grain for extended life and provides added durability and stiffness
- High-performing, patented Vortex agglomerated aluminum oxide grain provides the cutting power of a coarser grit with the finish of finer grits
- Medium grit for moderate surface cleaning, blending, prepping and detailing stainless steels; tool steels; soft metals like aluminum; cast, ductile, and gray iron; fiberglass, composites, carbon steels, super alloys, and titanium
