sanding discs vs flapper discs and which brand ??
Greetings all -- I have a couple of the 4-1/2 inch grinders (which
I love) and was wondering from a cost point of view which people preferred - the sanding disc or the flapper discs for cleaning up the metal/welds and all the other usual stuff you do with those grinders ( and which works better in general ). I was sort of leaning in the direction of the flapper discs, but was interested in what others had to say. Second part of this is where in the US is a good place to get the discs and which brand seems to give the best "grind for the buck" as it were ? What have people been happy with? (I hate those that you spin up and 1/2 the abrasive flys off before you even start work ;-) ) I was thinking of ordering a bunch and figured this bunch would have the most experience. Thanks for the feedback |
