3M 05756 Hookit Low Profile 6-Inch Abrasive Disc Backup Pad

The 3M Hookit Low Profile Abrasive Disc Backup Pad (05756) is a medium-density foam backup pad engineered for flat auto body sanding applications where precise leveling and fast material removal are essential. Its low-profile design keeps the pad closer to the work surface, delivering superior control and a more even finish compared to standard-height backup pads.

Key Features:

• Low Profile Design: Provides better leveling and faster material removal rates during flat sanding operations
• Medium Density Foam Construction: Balances flexibility and support for enhanced operator control and extended disc life
• 15-Degree Blunt Tapered Edge: Adds durability and resists wear, especially during aggressive sanding near edges
• Hookit Hook-and-Loop Attachment: Enables fast, clean disc changes and allows abrasive discs to be reused for the full life of the abrasive
• 5/16-24 External Threads: Compatible with a wide variety of random orbital sanders and other power tools
• No Holes: Solid pad face designed for use with standard Hookit sanding discs
• Maximum Speed: Rated up to 12,000 RPM/OPM
• Sold individually; available in cases of 10

Part of 3M's complete Hookit system, this backup pad is ideal for professional auto body technicians working in environments where adhesive-backed discs may become contaminated by dust or debris. The hook-and-loop interface allows discs to be attached and removed cleanly, reducing waste and downtime during multi-step sanding processes. Compatible with all 6-inch 3M Hookit abrasive discs (sold separately).
