Holder Pads
For the best results, it is recommended that a Standard
Abrasives brand holder pad is used. Tests have shown that
discs listed in this brochure, when used in conjunction
with the Standard Abrasives holder pad, have a greater
durability and performance rate.
Holder pads for Quick Change Discs are available in 3
attachment styles: TS, TR and TP.
SAFETY WARNING–Coated Abrasives are cutting tools and most of them are affixed to a drive member (holder pads, rubber drum, mandrel, etc.) and rotated at high speeds
with a power tool. They should not be operated at higher than safe operating speeds. When using coated abrasives, safety glasses and gloves should be worn. Protective
clothing may be required for continuous high speed grinding operations.
PRODUCT USE–All statements, technical information and recommendations contained in this document are based upon tests or experience that seller believes are reliable.
However, many factors beyond seller’s control can effect the use and performance of a seller’s product in a particular application, including the conditions under which the

User is responsible for determining whether
the seller’s product is fit for a particular purpose and suitable for user’s application. If the seller’s product is defective within the warranty period, your exclusive remedy and
seller’s sole obligation will be at seller’s option, to replace the product or refund the purchase price.
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY–Except where prohibited by law, seller will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from the seller’s product, whether direct, indirect, special,

Choice of Quick Change Attachments
The Standard Abrasives brand offers three quick change attachment styles. Each offers fast disc
changes, a centered disc and smooth running to help reduce operating expenses and increase
productivity by providing the most value and use out of every disc.
Quick Change TS System was introduced in 1959 as the SocAtt original metal-to-metal quick
change sanding system. Now called the TS System, it remains the most popular style for safety,
productivity and fast disc changes. Change discs by simply twisting to unlock the disc from the
holder pad.
Quick Change TR System (formerly known as Lockit) features a common nylon threaded male
(screw type) hub. Easily mounts to TR or Roloc™ type holder pads with a half turn. Stays securely
in place for the life of the disc.
Quick Change TP System (formerly known as ClickOn) features a snap-on/snap-off nylon
fastening hub. Allows for quick disc changes when working on mild contours, as well as flat
surfaces. Mounts to TP or Power-Lock™ Type I holder pads.
