🔧 BOSCH RS032 8-Hole Hook & Loop Hard Backing Pad for Improved SEO Review

The cushion is well made but the velcro on it is terrible. I've been using it for less than an hour on light sanding and the sandpaper kept coming off. Even with the grinder off, I put on a new disc and it just fell off without even turning it on. I use my Makita a lot and the velcro on it is great and holds the same rims very well so it's not sandpaper it's velcro on the pad.

It was easy to replace on my Bosch ROS and works very well. It's tougher than OEM. So if that's important, you might want to think twice before ordering. I like that it's stiff as I mostly use it on large flat surfaces. If you need something to contour the edges more, you might need something softer. I'm happy with it and so far its performance has been great.

This is the first Bosch product that I have been disappointed with and I have many Bosch tools. I ordered 2 of these and installed them in my grinder. This was supposed to be an OEM site for my router. The hooks on the rubbers were so short that they didn't even hold the disc. I ended up having to return them and scrap my Bosch router as the pads don't work. I bought a DeWalt router and had no problem with it not holding drives.

A replacement part arrived and I had to adjust the miner to install on my Black & Decker grinder. After installation it works great! Once the grinding wheel is placed on the disc, it stays in place and is even difficult to remove. I bought this product because the original Black and Decker grinding wheel replacement is no longer available. Aside from the longer grinder adjustment screw, it works great. I am considering buying another one for future use if this ever wears out.

Like other people, I have trouble keeping discs on the pad. I use Lowes Gator pads and they stick perfectly to a small Wen grinder I bought from Revain a while ago and I've never had a problem with the original Bosch pad. If you compare the two "grip" surfaces, the Bosch pad seems to have almost no friction surface. I'm wondering if anyone sells a velcro material that can be glued to an existing gasket. It seems that ordering someone else would be a waste of time and money.

I have had a Bosch 3283 DVS since I was a teacher in a carpentry workshop in 1991. Got it because a young man ruined it and they closed the carpentry shop (ty Jax, Florida). It was very frustrating for...well, decades (yes, decades) because he wasn't holding the discs in place. But now that I have this hook and loop base, this amazing grinder is back in business. The hooks on this pad seem tiny/small/small compared to the original. However, it will work with HarborFreight's current (January 13,

Perfect fit for my old Bosch 3283DVS! I am very happy that I was able to buy a replacement nozzle for my grinder. I hated throwing away a good sander because of such a small problem - a new sanding pad. And since this pad is a stiffer, denser version, it's the perfect complement to the softer pad replacement grinder I bought when I had this problem. The softer grip works best on rounded edges and soft woods. A hard fretboard works best with hardwoods like oak, which have a pronounced grain that
