yes pat it is 6"...but i got it to use with the Megs foam pads as I have a ton of them and have bben getting nice results using them with the Menz finishing polishes....I also got a great deal on some 3M black finishing pads that were 8" and bought 10 for 3.95 each and a guy at work made a die to cut them to 6.5 for me...I have a ton of 5 and 5.5 in pads also..and the machined down flex plate works perfect with them...
I called 3m last summer about the 3m plate and to see if it could be had in the US..and they said not at the present time...but when I went to the body shop supply last week to get some stuff...i asked about it there and was told they are going to be available in the US soon but no time date..thats what he was told by the 3M rep....also some new wools by 3m
