{"product_id":"3-hx-hybrid-transitional-pads","title":"3\" HX Hybrid Transitional Pads","description":"\u003cp\u003eA two-step hybrid transition system built for hard and extra-hard concrete, where metal scratches are hardest to chase out and standard resins glaze over. The hybrid diamond matrix cuts like a metal and refines like a resin, so you can move from metal bond straight into resin without leaving scratches behind, and often skip a grinding step along the way. Our HX pads are built heavier and more durable than typical transitional pads, so they hold their shape and keep cutting over more square footage. The open cross-channel face clears slurry and dust and keeps the pad running cool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3HX (grey):\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 40 grit.
