Flex BP-M D50 PXE (50 mm)

The Flex BP-M D50 PXE backing plate with a 50 mm diameter is a key component for the FLEX PXE 80 10.8-EC system. This plate was developed with an emphasis on maximum efficiency when polishing details where standard sizes are insufficient. It is a professional tool that transforms your cordless polisher into a precise instrument for detailing and spot repairs of paint.

Technical Characteristics and Construction

1. Material Composition and Damping

The plate is made from high-quality polyurethane (PU) with a special degree of stiffness. This layer serves as a damper between the machine and the polishing pad. Thanks to its elasticity, the plate can follow the contours of the car body while maintaining sufficient rigidity to transfer the necessary cutting force for removing scratches.

2. Integrated Mounting System

Unlike common backing plates with a thread, this model utilizes the unique Flex system for the PXE 80 model. The plate does not screw into the eccentric or rotary adapters; it simply snaps into place. This eliminates the risk of thread stripping and drastically reduces the time needed to change the machine configuration during work.

3. "Hook & Loop" (Velcro) Surface

The Velcro surface is optimized for high RPMs. The hooks are designed to hold the pad firmly even at the elevated temperatures generated by friction, while also allowing for safe removal without damaging the pad's foam structure.

Main Benefits in Practice

• Absolute Precision in Details: The 50 mm diameter is the "golden middle ground" – it is small enough for polishing door pillars, inner sills, or around handles, yet large enough for quickly polishing smaller continuous surfaces.

• Vibration Minimization: The precise balancing of the plate reduces hand fatigue during prolonged work, which is crucial in detailing for achieving a 100% result without holograms.

• System Compatibility: Fully compatible with both types of motion – rotary (for removing deep defects) and eccentric with a 3 mm or 12 mm orbit (for the final finish).
