Tork Craft Polisher Service Kit – Replacement Backing Pad For POL02
At a Glance; Genuine replacement backing pad (item 01) for the Tork Craft POL02 wool bonnet polisher.
Give your polishing work a clean, consistent contact surface again with this dedicated Tork Craft POL02-SK18 replacement backing pad. The backing pad is the interface between the machine and the wool bonnet – once it becomes worn, damaged or out of shape, it can spoil the finish, increase vibration and make the polisher harder to control.
This genuine backing pad is matched to the original POL02 specification, ensuring proper fit on the spindle and a flat, stable support surface for the bonnet. Fitted correctly, it helps the polisher glide more smoothly over automotive paintwork, metal and other surfaces, making it easier to achieve an even cut and a professional-looking finish.

Extra Information
Typical signs that the backing pad needs replacement include visible cracks, missing sections, a hard or brittle feel, or a bonnet that no longer sits flat and true. A damaged pad can cause the machine to feel rough in the hands and may leave inconsistent marks or swirl patterns on the workpiece.
The POL02-SK18 backing pad has been chosen specifically for the Tork Craft POL02 wool bonnet polisher, so it works correctly with the machine’s spindle, guard layout and recommended bonnet size. Keeping a spare pad on hand is a simple way to minimise downtime in busy workshops and detailing bays.
Pro Tip
Pro Tip: When fitting a new backing pad, always check that the mounting face and spindle threads on the POL02 are clean and free of compound build-up. Tighten the pad securely, but do not over-tighten, and spin it by hand with the tool unplugged to make sure it runs true before starting the motor. Pair the new pad with a clean, good-quality wool bonnet for the best finishing results.
