WEHA Turbo Disc – 3.5 in., 200 Grit
WEHA Turbo Disc – 3.5 in., 200 Grit
The WEHA Turbo Polishing Disc is a rigid 3.5 in. diamond edge-polishing disc in 200 grit, the step that removes the scratch pattern left by the 100 grit disc. It is a rigid disc rather than a flexible pad, so it holds a flat edge flat instead of rolling over the arris.
The disc has no thread of its own and cannot be run on its own. It mounts on the WEHA 3.5 in. backup pad, MPN 51080, which has a 5/8-11 thread, a strong hook-and-loop face and an interior ridge that stops the disc shifting under load. A buyer who orders discs without that pad has nothing they can put on a machine. Weha's own product page names this disc at 200 grit in the 3.5 in. size.

- Requires the WEHA 3.5 in. backup pad (WEH 51080, 5/8-11 thread) — sold separately

Who Is This For?
Fabricators polishing flat edges, bevels and seam faces who run the whole grit ladder on one backup pad. It is the wrong tool for a curved profile or a sink bowl, which need a flexible pad: the WEHA Trio 3 Step pad (WEH 13341) is the flexible option, but only its step 1 is stocked here, so on its own it will not take a bowl or a curved edge through to a finished polish. It is also the wrong tool for blending a scratch repair on a quartz surface, which is what the WEHA Donkey surface pads (WEH 134293) are for.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does this disc mount on?

Can I use the disc without a backup pad?
No. The disc is rigid and has no thread, so without the 3.5 in. backup pad there is no way to mount it on a polisher or grinder.
What is 200 grit used for?
