Oreck Commercial - 53178-510327 53178-51-0327 Drive Pad Holder, 12" Diameter, For ORB550MC Orbiter Floor Machine

This was a replacement for the original drive pad that came with my orbiter. I use the orbiter in my carpet cleaning business to agitate very dirty carpets before I steam clean them and also to scrub tile and grout. The first drive plate as held up pretty good considering how much use it's had for many years and this one is identical so I expect the same. Note - I modify my pad drivers by splitting the upper and lower plastic pieces. Then I remove the white double sided adhesive and discard the side with all the little "hooks". The reason is that those little hooks tear up the pads every time you take the pad off thereby considerably shortening the life of your pads. After the adhesive is cleaned off, I use strong glue to glue down strips of velcro. The velcro will hold the pads just fine and save the un-needed wear and tear.

Good product .would be good if they could offer a bigger one also !

Very durable & worked great for leaving a polished floor.

It is what it was designed to do

works as it was deigned and sold to me
