PACE Technologies BC2-8008-MAG Black CHEM 2 8" Polishing Pad with Magnetic Rubber - 5 pcs.

Selecting the right polishing pad is essential for achieving precise, repeatable surface finishes. Pads vary in nap height, backing type, and material composition, which impacts abrasive support, flatness, and edge retention.

Choosing the correct pad minimizes artifacts such as edge rounding, relief, and smear, ensuring accurate microstructural analysis.

Backing option: magnetic backing. Magnetic-backed pads simplify pad transitions and are ideal for high-throughput applications.

The magnetic polishing system simplifies pad transitions by using magnetic-backed pads and disks with magnetic baseplates. This eliminates adhesive cleanup and enables quick changes between polishing stages.

Magnetic-backed pads offer the same pad selection as PSA-backed pads, with the added benefit of instant removal and repositioning. The system maintains consistent flatness and contact uniformity, making it ideal for high-throughput applications.

Black CHEM 2 is a porometric polymer pad with rubber-like consistency, offering balanced action between low and high nap pads. Ideal for moderate nap intermediate polishing.
