The Rupes USA 980.720/C PrecisionPro Backing Plate is a next-generation 125mm (5") hook-and-loop backing plate engineered for random orbital polishers. Developed as part of Rupes' ongoing effort to optimize polishing materials, this backing plate delivers a measurably improved polishing experience for both professional detailers and enthusiasts. The kit includes the backing plate, M8 mounting bolt, and shroud lubricant.

Key Features:

• Heat-Welded Polyurethane Interface: The polyurethane layer is directly heat-welded to the hook-and-loop attachment surface, significantly improving the solidity, stability, and long-term durability of the pad bond
• Upgraded Hook-and-Loop Material: Enhanced Velcro surface provides superior grip and greater long-term reliability compared to previous-generation backing plates
• Optimized Geometry and Balance: Precision-engineered geometry reduces operator fatigue during extended use while delivering greater stability and polishing accuracy
• Lower Center of Gravity: The slim profile construction lowers the center of gravity, bringing the pad closer to the work surface for improved control and reduced vibration
• Rubber Border Protection: A protective rubber edge provides extra finesse and a smoother glide, helping protect delicate paint surfaces during correction
• Balancing Versatility: Engineered to maintain consistent balance and performance when switching between different polishing pad types and sizes
• 125mm / 5" Diameter: Velcro hook-and-loop attachment with M8 bolt thread mount
• Includes: PrecisionPro backing plate, M8 mounting bolt, and shroud lubricant
