    B&S urotec blue foam pad on flex 3401

    Can these be used with the flex? I have a blue coarse pad and want to use it compounding. I saw a video that said not for use with forced Da or rotary polishers and I'm not sure if the flex falls in this category. Thanks

    Nope those are not made for forced DA like the flex 3401. Should only be used with the longer throw machines like the flex XFE or the Rupes line

    Would be nice if that was specified on the product listing when ordering so I didn't waist my time and money dang it

    the uro-tec foam pads (open cell foam for heat disbursement) are designed for long throw polishers (Griot's BOSS, Flex XFE-15, etc.) & orbitals (GG6, PC, etc.). the uro-cell foam pads (three pad system/closed cell foam) are designed for rotary, forced DA & orbitals. low-pro foam pads are recommended for long throw polishers (Griot's BOSS, Flex XFE-15, etc.) and orbitals (GG6, PC, etc.)..
