Features
- Dedicated mount for PVA Quick Change wheels.
- Snail-lock wheel changes between grits.
- Aluminum backer designed for low-speed polishing.
Specifications
- Model: PVA-5/8
- Diameter: 4 inches
- Tool thread: 5/8 inch-11

Applications
Use this backer to run the PVA QC dry-polishing sequence on a compatible sander or polisher. It is the mounting component required by the separately sold PVAQCK pad assortment.
Selection and Use
- Match the tool’s 5/8-inch-11 thread and controllable speed to the backer and wheel.
- Do not run PVA QC on a high-speed tool above the 4,000 RPM limit.
- Keep PVA QC wheels dry; the quick-change mount does not make those abrasives suitable for wet polishing.
