Key Features & Benefits
- Round 90mm profile — purpose-built shape accesses areas that standard round pads cannot reach, extending the versatility of the RO 90 DX.
- FastFix tool-free changes — swap between round, delta and slat pads in seconds without tools to match the pad shape to the workpiece geometry.
- StickFix hook-and-loop surface — secure abrasive attachment with quick changes and the ability to reuse partially worn discs.
- Heat-resistant MPE foam — maintains shape and grip through extended sanding in tight spaces where heat builds quickly.
When to Use This Pad
Use the 496804 round pad for general-purpose sanding on the RO 90 DX — flat panels, gentle curves, edge profiles and between-coat finishing. This is the standard pad that ships with the sander and is the first pad to replace when the hook-and-loop surface wears. For corner work, switch to the delta plate (496802). For narrow slats, use the slat pad (496803).
