Scouring Pads

Scouring Pads

Product Overview

Open-Web Nonwoven + Abrasive = Flexible, Non-Clogging Conditioning
Nonwoven Abrasive Pads for Cleaning, Oxide Removal, Brushing & Surface Conditioning

Scouring pads are made from an open-web nonwoven fiber structure, often impregnated/coated with abrasives (commonly aluminum oxide or silicon carbide).

The open structure provides:

  • Low loading/clogging for oily, dusty, or residue-prone applications;
  • Conformity for hand use or pad holders on curves/edges;
  • Controllable texture via grades (coarse/medium/fine) for cleaning power and brushing results.

They typically offer good water/chemical tolerance depending on formulation.

Product Description

Product Positioning

All-in-One Media for Cleaning, Oxide Removal and Brushing Texture

Scouring pads are positioned as cleaning-oriented surface conditioning abrasives, designed for low gouging risk, low heat impact, and controllable texture—used for cleaning, light oxide removal, brushing/unifying scratch patterns, light pre-coating abrasion, and maintenance.
They focus on surface conditioning rather than heavy stock removal, making them suitable for cosmetic parts, thin sheet, and complex profiles. They are widely used on stainless steel, aluminum, copper, and coated surfaces.

Processing Logic

Elastic Fiber Micro-Abrasion for Cleaning and Texture Unification

Scouring pads work through fiber-based micro-abrasion and brushing, not heavy cutting:

  • Gradually removes contaminants, oxide films, and light coating residues;
  • Creates a shallow, uniform texture;
  • More forgiving on edges and complex contours with lower gouging/heat discoloration risk.

They are commonly used as a transition step: cleaning/oxide removal → texture unification → polishing or coating.

Backing Structure & Performance Limits

Surface Management, Not a Replacement for Sandpaper/Belt Removal
  • Strengths: low loading, low gouging, conformable, combines cleaning and brushing
  • Limits: limited stock removal; heavy rust/scale/weld reinforcement should be removed first with belts/flap discs/sandpaper
  • Grade-sensitive: wrong grade can create overly coarse texture or insufficient cleaning

Machine Compatibility & Operating Conditions

Hand Use, Pad Holders, and Surface Conditioning Machines
  • Use: hand application (most common) with holders; can also be used in surface conditioning systems depending on format
  • Recommended: medium to low pressure, continuous movement; wet use with water/cleaner when needed
  • Process goal: cleanliness and texture consistency over maximum removal rate

Typical Applications & Industries

Cleaning and Brushing Across Metal, Kitchenware, and Maintenance

Stainless cleaning, fingerprint/light oxide removal, brushed texture unification

Aluminum/copper oxide film removal and surface conditioning

Pre-coating cleaning and light abrasion

Industrial maintenance: equipment cleaning, degreasing assistance, adhesive residue removal

Cosmetic maintenance of hardware and decorative parts (grade-dependent)

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Range & Recommended Use

Grade Selection for Cleaning vs Brushing Texture

Scouring pads are commonly specified by grade/color (market-dependent):

  • Coarse: stronger cleaning/oxide removal, more visible texture, for heavy cleaning and surface prep
  • Medium: balanced cleaning + brushing (most common)
  • Fine / Very Fine: gentler, for cosmetic maintenance, light brushing and pre-polish conditioning

OEM & ODM Capability

Grade, Density and Format Customization

OEM/ODM supported:

Nonwoven density/thickness, abrasive system and grades, color coding system, sheet/roll sizing, holder-compatible formats, private label/packaging and kit programs—engineered for target cleaning strength, texture, and durability.

Why Choose Us

Consistent Conditioning Requires Density and Grade Stability

Although simple in appearance, performance depends on grade consistency:

Nonwoven density, abrasive distribution, and bonding stability determine cleaning strength, texture coarseness, and durability. We control materials and process for batch stability, delivering repeatable cleaning and brushing results.

Usage & Storage Recommendations

Use the Right Grade and Keep Pads Clean

Choose grade by goal: coarse/medium for cleaning/oxide removal, fine/very fine for cosmetic maintenance

  • Use medium to low pressure with continuous movement; wet use with cleaner/water when needed to reduce scratching and dust
  • Rinse and air-dry after use to prevent residue affecting future consistency
  • Store dry and shaded; avoid moisture and compression that can change density; reseal after opening
