HF grinder wheels
Picked up some HF grinder wheels today (6674), and they seem to do well for
grinding off my turkeysh*t welds and whatnot. I notice they don't have the smooth outside coating that the Norton/DeWalt ones do, and I haven't ground it down far enough to see if there is a fiberglass matrix holding the whole thing together. Anyone tried their grinding discs, and had any "interesting" experiences with them? Jon |

Anyone tried their grinding discs, and had any "interesting" experiences with them? Jon Ayup. They are not bad. They dont last quite as long as those 2x the price..but they are the best deal Ive found, except for buying bulk off Ebay..and even then they are pretty close.

Aye, for a buck a disk I figure as long as they don't turn into shrapnel it's a good deal. Jon |

Aye, for a buck a disk I figure as long as they don't turn into shrapnel it's a good deal. I've worn out a couple and neither threw stuff. They wore slowly, lasting much longer than I expected, too. Definitely worth the price. I've had the little 45430s (1/16" thick cutoff wheels) blow when I caught an edge, but even that was just a spray of dust and small pieces.
