Bosch Detail Sander

My small corner sanding pad (p/n 2608000198) is wearing out. I don't know if this has the hooks or loops, but in any case can just the hook/loop sheet be replaced so I don't have to buy the entire assembly for $17 plus shipping?

No, when the hooks wear out, the entire pad needs to be replaced.

Thanks X

I'll bite the bullet and buy the whole finger asm. All these tool manufacturers kill us on replacement stuff.

Yeah they do. As mentioned in a recent thread about orbital sanders, don't push too hard while sanding as it can heat up and melt (flatten) then hooks on those pads. It pretty much happens immediately (from the friction) if you try sanding paint or poly.
