A wafer carrier for use in polishing disks. The wafer carrier includes a main body and an integral visual inspection wear indicator. The main body has at least one opening formed therein adapted to receive a disk. The visual inspection wear indicator provides a visual indication of when the main body has reached the end of its useful life. The inspection wear indicator may have several portions to incrementally identify the approximate wear stage, that is, the approximate remaining useful life.
