Bosch 2 608 601 714 angle grinder accessory Backing pad

The Bosch 2 608 601 714 backing pad (X-LOCK) is designed for use with Bosch X-LOCK angle grinders and is optimised for fine grit sanding (P60 and finer). With a 125 mm diameter and a flat surface, the pad provides a secure support for sanding and polishing discs. Constructed from thermostable plastic, it resists high temperatures and reduces the risk of breakage, while the heavy-duty design extends pad lifetime. The X-LOCK interface enables fast, keyless changing of backing pads.

Advantages

The backing pad’s flat surface is tailored for fine sanding applications and ensures even contact with abrasive discs. Thermostable plastic construction offers improved resistance to heat and mechanical stress, and the robust design increases durability and service life. Compatibility with the X-LOCK system allows quick, tool-free attachment and replacement.

Recommendations

For best results, use the backing pad with abrasives rated P60 or finer and monitor pad and disc wear during extended use. Avoid excessive pressure and prolonged high-speed use to reduce heat build-up; allow the pad to cool if it becomes hot. Ensure compatibility with your specific Bosch X-LOCK grinder model before use.
