Abrasives

[follow3]

Hey All,

Where is the best place to order abrasives?
What is the best brand?

I am looking for a place to supply all of my abrasive needs in one store:
1. 2"H&L discs
2. 5" H&L discs
3. 9" H&L discs
4. 6" x 48" belts
5. Pre-cut rolls for a drum sander.
6. Wet & dry sheets

Thanks for any input and links,
Steve

Klingspor offers a discount for IAP members, and their stuff is GOOD!!! I've ordered from them a few times, and their service is excellent, products are super, and they'll have everything you need, from an abrasives standpoint.

Klinspor is definitely a good source. IIRC, their discount program is on hold with respect to new sign ups. Even without the discount they are a one stop shop.

Without a doubt Klingspor.
Here is a link to their woodworking site:

I use Klingspor if they have what I need. But the vast majority of my discs come from Supergrit. I've been very happy with them.

Check also out Abranet, comes in sheets and discs. Great stuff!!

i also give a thumbs up to Klingspors. i order the bargin boxes and have been very happy with the value. You can specify the grit sizes you want in the box (generaly) and it is all industrial grade cast off edges resulting when they cut stock down to different belt sizes. The yellow stuff is really good for turners.

Between these guys and Klingspor you should have it made.

Thanks Rick,

Placed an order with them for a bunch of stuff to replace all my sanding supplies that got ruined in the flood. I think I will be buying all my sanding supplies there except for pre-cut strips for my Jet 10-20 mini drum. They don't have them pre-cut, and I hate having to cut them myself.

Thanks again for the link,
Steve

Hey,

Got my package today.

I ordered the white line, aluminum oxide with lubricant, 2" discs for sanding pens: 220 through 600 grit.

5", white line, 8 hole discs for my DeWalt random orbit sander.

9", White line, solid discs for my combination belt/disc sander.

I also ordered some misc. supplies, like a cleaning stick and some peal and stick velcro.

The prices are very reasonable and the product seems to be AWESOME!!!.

So awesome in fact, I have contacted the manufacturer about becoming a distributer!!!

What do you guys think? Would you be interested in having am abrasives dealer right here on our very own forum?

I can tell you the product is superior to anything I have used in the past. And the prices are very competitive.

Who would be interested in ordering their abrasive supplies from here?

Thanks,
Steve
