Hook & Loop Discs

Tackle Any Surface With Hook & Loop Sanding Discs That Deliver

Achieving smooth, consistent results shouldn't slow you down. With hook-and-loop sanding discs from Benchmark Abrasives, you get reliable performance and quick-change convenience that keep your projects moving forward.

What Are Hook & Loop Sanding Discs?

Hook and loop sanding discs are specialized abrasive tools designed for quick and easy attachment to power sanders like orbital sanders, random orbital sanders, and disc sanders. These loop discs feature high-quality abrasive material on one side for cutting and smoothing surfaces, while the back has a hook and loop system that works just like Velcro to securely attach to compatible backing pads on your sanding equipment.

Available with free shipping from Benchmark Abrasives, these abrasive discs are the ideal choice for professional contractors and DIY enthusiasts.

How Do Hook & Loop Sanding Discs Work?

The installation process couldn't be simpler—these discs are built for ultimate user convenience and less downtime between grit changes. All you need is a backup pad on your orbital sander that's compatible with hook and loop attachment. Simply press the disc onto the backing pad, and it locks in place with a solid grip instantly. When you're ready to change grits or replace a worn disc, just peel it off by hand. The loop system connection is strong enough to keep the disc secure during heavy sanding but releases easily when you need to make a change.

If your power tool doesn't already have a hook and loop backing pad, you can easily find DA orbital sander backing pads in various sizes to match your specific tool, often available at affordable prices with excellent customer service support.

Benefits of Hook & Loop Sanding Discs Over Other Attachment Methods

These discs offer practical advantages that save time, reduce waste, and deliver consistent results every step of the way:

• Reusable design allows for multiple uses without losing grip, unlike PSA discs that lose adhesion once removed
• Long-term cost savings and less material waste thanks to their reattachable nature
• Quick and easy grit changes without tools or wait time, making them ideal for projects requiring multiple grits
• Reduced downtime leads to more efficient sanding and higher productivity
• Cleaner performance as hook and loop backings resist dust and debris buildup better than adhesive alternatives
• Consistent attachment strength throughout the disc’s life ensures reliable sanding results
• Ideal for high-precision applications like hardwood floors and detailed surface prep
• Proven durability and performance for professionals and serious DIYers across a range of sanding tools and setups

Why Do Some Sanding Discs Have Holes?

You'll notice that many loop sanding discs feature different hole patterns arranged around the disc's surface. These aren't just for show—they serve a crucial purpose in maintaining sanding performance. Common configurations include 5-inch 8-hole hook and loop designs that work with your sander's dust collection system to pull debris and dust away from the abrasive surface as you work.

Without these holes, sanding dust would quickly build up on the disc's surface, creating a barrier between the abrasive grit and your workpiece. This buildup reduces cutting efficiency and can cause the disc to become clogged and ineffective. The vacuum holes keep the abrasive surface clean and working at peak performance, whether you're using 8-hole sanding discs or other hole configurations.
