    Hard—Hard pads are best for aggressive cutting on flat surfaces.

    Style A

    Style B

    Add one of these foam pads between your sanding disc and backup pad to create a cushioned layer while sanding. They conform to bumps or crevices and distribute pressure more evenly on your workpiece as you sand, leading to finer and more consistent finishes.
    Style B—Style B pads have vacuum holes that allow dust removal when used with a vacuum sander to prevent buildup of debris on the abrasive surface. They have hundreds of small holes, so they can be used with any style of vacuum sander, regardless of its hole configuration.
