Swift and Simple Attachment
The hook-and-loop backing makes disc attachment, removal, and re-attachment easy, and facilitates use and re-use of the disc for the full extent of its abrasive life. These discs have J-shaped hooks.

And while attaching them is easy, they provide a secure attachment mechanism for even the most heavy duty sanding.
