Machined from billet aluminum to meet exact weight requirements, the BEAST backing plate is also black anodized for for a finish to match the level of performance that it provides. The key to the BEAST'S unmatched performance is its precision weight, which provides a level of balance and smooth operation that simply cannot be achieved otherwise. And since the design spaces the backing plate away from the LHR12, LHR15 Mk II/III, and LHR21 Mk II/III's anti-spin shroud, you also gain speed and free-spin orbits.
Another great feature is that the plate is shorter than the factory unit, which lowers the center of gravity, and gets you closer to the polishing surface.
Benefits of the Kamikaze BEAST 5" backing plate:
NOTE: This backing plate is designed only for the LHR12 Duetto, LHR15 Mark II/III, and LHR21 Mark II/III, but not the LHR15ES/LHR21ES. While it will fit, the balance will be off, and you will not achieve the highest level of performance.
This backing plate CANNOT be used on the new Rupes iBrid HLR15/21 or the new LHR15/21 Mark V polishers.
