The pads that you lnked to are all the same thing. They are 7.5 inch pads from LC. If you will notice, all the pads have a hole in the center. These pads are best used for a rotary but can be used with a PC.



The other pads that you mentioned are 6 inch pads best used with a PC but can be used with a rotary. These pads do not have a hole in the middle.



This is my understanding of the pads that you mentioned.

I prefer constant-pressure pads. That way the entire pad surface is doing work all the time.

With the PC the constant pressure pads are the way to go. Very easy to use, VC pads take some getting used to even with a PC.
