CROP Cotton Polishing Pad 100mm

Polishing stainless steel, aluminum, and steel with cotton polishing disc

CROP Cotton Polishing Pad 100mm is a compressed cotton polishing disc used for machine polishing of metal surfaces. Due to its natural fiber structure, the disc evenly absorbs polishing paste and distributes it controlled over the material. This makes the polishing disc suitable for working on stainless steel, aluminum, and general steel in both industrial and artisanal environments.

Practical application in metal finishing

The cotton polishing disc is used on a grinding machine or drill and always requires a suitable chuck, which needs to be ordered separately for safe and stable operation. When used with the right polishing paste, the disc helps reduce light scratches, remove dull spots, and even out the surface. Thanks to its relatively soft but stable operation, this polishing disc is particularly suitable for stainless steel and aluminum parts, where control and surface quality are important. Even with steel, a uniform result is achieved without aggressive material removal. In practice, the disc is used on welded parts, sheet metal, and lightly formed components. By adjusting the speed according to the polishing phase, a controlled process with consistent finishing is achieved.

Consistent gloss buildup due to stable cotton structure

The cotton structure of this polishing disc provides a good balance between flexibility and support during polishing. This allows the disc to remain dimensionally stable while following the surface accurately during rotation. This enables multiple polishing steps to be performed with one type of disc, ranging from preparatory treatments to surface finishing. Compared to harder alternatives, cotton offers more control, which is especially important for visible work. For optimal results, recommended speeds matching the operation are used. For pre-polishing, the speed ranges from 5000 to 7000 rpm, regular polishing is done at 3800 to 4500 rpm, and for high-gloss polishing or finishing, 3500 to 4500 rpm is maintained. Proper speed adjustment contributes to a uniform gloss and longer lifespan of the polishing disc.
