M14 M16 5/8-11 Thread Bar Adaptor For Polisher And Polishing Pad
An adaptor for a polisher with varying thread types is a device that enables the connection of polishing accessories (such as extension shafts or support plates) with threads that are distinct from those on the spindle of the polisher. This is particularly beneficial when your polishing equipment has thread sizes or types that are incompatible, as it allows you to utilize a broader selection of accessories with your polisher.
