The Standard Abrasives Zirconia Cross Pad is an efficient choice for steel, stainless steel, and aluminum applications such as blending, deburring, polishing and finishing. The shape and flexibility of the cross pad enables access to holes, recesses, and cylinder walls. Moreover, space between the fingers of the pad helps operators see the workpiece during use.
- Flexible and easily conforms to the workpiece
- Ideal for deburring and polishing most radii, holes, recesses and cylinder walls
- Useful for polishing bell-mouth pieces, drop forge dies, and other pieces with deep recesses
- Resin bond system provides secure grain retention and maximum abrasive life
- Multi-ply laminated construction produces cushioned, chatter-free grinding
- Zirconia mineral tackles coarse stock removal with ease

. How do I attach the pad to my tool or machine?
. The pad comes with a threaded arbor hole compatible with any grinder mandrel size that accommodates its Arbor Hole Size (AH). It's designed to fit both electric and air-powered grinders.
The Standard Abrasives™ Zirconia Cross Pad is a versatile grinding tool that can be used in hard-to-reach areas and for producing a final shine and polish. The pad is made up of strips of abrasive material that are folded over an eyelet and intersect to form a cross. The four spindles rotate as the pad spins inside pipes or tubes, allowing for swift finishing of the workpiece. The spindles are springy and buoyant, making them suitable for uniquely shaped parts without damaging the surface. The cross pad is less aggressive than square pads and is typically used for metal finishing tasks.
The small shape of the cross pad makes it ideal for getting inside tubes and other internal diameters. It is great for finishing and polishing inside and around sharp corners and extrusions, and the mineral cuts aggressively without compromising the geometry of the part. The pad is also good for blending radii and finishing bell-mouth pieces.
A Final Finish, Without the ChatterThe spindles on the Standard Abrasives™ Zirconia Cross Pad are multi-ply, containing up to 16 layers of abrasive material. The higher the ply, or "thickness," the more aggressive and durable the pad will be. Lower ply abrasives tend to be more flexible and conform well to the substrate, making them ideal for polishing or finishing. The multi-thickness of the abrasive material acts as an extra cushion, reducing the likelihood of chatter, which tends to result from too much vibration and frequency between the abrasive, tool, and workpiece.
Alumina Zirconia Excels at Heavy-Duty OperationsAlumina Zirconia is a man-made mineral that fractures frequently to continually produce fresh sharp points, delivering a faster cut-rate than aluminum oxide. It was developed for heavy stock removal and high-pressure grinding, making it well-suited for applications on steel and stainless steel. It is also a good choice for aluminum.
Anatomy of a Cross PadThe cross pad has a metal eyelet that attaches to a mandrel and may be used with a rotary tool. By changing mandrel length, the user may shorten or extend the pad's reach. Standard Abrasives™ Cross Pads are manufactured from a variety of minerals, including Aluminum Oxide, Zirconia, Ceramic, and Silicon Carbide (each sold separately). All minerals are securely anchored to the backing with a strong, heat-resistant resin bond. Combining cushion, flexibility, and an aggressive cut, these well-rounded abrasive products offer outstanding versatility.
