Will a 5/16"-24 backing pad fit my sander?

The Mercer 5-inch backing pad fits sanders with a 5/16"-24 spindle thread. Check the thread size in your sander's manual or bring the old pad to your NDM store.

Do I need a backing pad with dust holes?

A Mercer pad with 8 dust holes lets a dust-extraction sander pull dust through 8-hole discs. Line the disc holes up with the pad holes when you mount each disc.

What is the difference between hook-and-loop and PSA backing pads?

Hook-and-loop backing pads hold discs with a fabric fastener, so discs change fast and can be reused. PSA pads take stick-on discs with an adhesive back, which are usually used once.
