OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade General Purpose Cleaning Pad

The Walter 07A400 Blendex Hand Pad in Green is a versatile abrasive tool designed for the rigors of industrial maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO). Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, this 6-inch by 9-inch pad utilizes a non-woven nylon web structure impregnated with abrasive grain, offering a resilient and flexible solution for surface conditioning. Unlike rigid grinding wheels or sanding discs, the Blendex hand pad is specifically designed to conform to the workpiece, making it indispensable for working on complex geometries, curved surfaces, and hard-to-reach areas where mechanical tools cannot fit.

This specific "Green" grade is formulated for general-purpose cleaning and light finishing tasks. It excels in removing surface contaminants, light oxidation, dirt, and grime from a wide variety of materials including aluminum, stainless steel, copper, and brass. In a professional fabrication environment, it is frequently used for pre-weld cleaning to ensure base material purity or for post-weld cleanup to restore aesthetic finishes. The open-web design promotes airflow and clears debris, significantly reducing the risk of loading or clogging, which is a common failure point in lower-quality abrasive sheets.

One of the primary technical advantages of the Blendex pad over traditional steel wool is its synthetic construction. Steel wool sheds metallic fibers that can embed into the workpiece, leading to "after-rust" or galvanic corrosion, particularly on stainless steel or aluminum. The Walter 07A400 is completely non-metallic and non-rusting, ensuring the integrity of the substrate is maintained. Furthermore, these pads are chemically resistant and washable; they can be used wet with water, detergents, or industrial solvents to enhance cleaning action, and then rinsed out for repeated use, offering excellent longevity and cost-per-use value.

Key Industrial Applications

  • Surface Preparation: Cleaning metal surfaces prior to painting, coating, or welding.
  • Maintenance: Removing shop grime, light rust, and oxidation from machinery and tools.
  • Finishing: Blending minor scratches and creating a uniform satin finish on fabricated parts.
  • Deburring: Manual removal of light burrs on machined components without altering critical dimensions.

FAQ

The Green Blendex pad (07A400) is classified as 'General Purpose'. While it doesn't have a strict FEPA grit number, it typically performs similarly to a coarse scouring pad, suitable for cleaning and light finishing without being overly aggressive.

Yes, the Walter Blendex Green pad is excellent for stainless steel. Unlike steel wool, it is synthetic and will not leave behind iron particles that cause rust or contamination.

Yes, these pads are waterproof and solvent-resistant. You can use them with water, detergents, or degreasers for wet sanding and cleaning applications.

In the Walter Blendex line, Maroon (07A100) is typically Medium grit (60-80), and Grey (07A200) is Fine grit (100-120). The Green (07A400) is a General Purpose cleaning pad, often used for scouring rather than specific grain finishing.

Absolutely. The 6x9 inch sheet can be easily cut with scissors or a utility knife to fit specific tools, sanding blocks, or tight spaces.

No, the Blendex Green pad is designed for surface conditioning and cleaning. It removes surface contaminants and very light burrs but is not aggressive enough to significantly alter the geometry or dimensions of the workpiece.

Yes, the open web design resists clogging. If the pad gets loaded with debris, you can rinse it out with water or blow it out with compressed air and reuse it multiple times.
