HF buffing wheels

[Gethenet]

I have the beall buffing system, I just use one at a time on the lathe with the " quick adapter" I need to replace all the wheels, due to use. Using same wheels for about 5 years. Will the wheels HF sell, have the same threads on the mounting as the beall?

I don't know anything about the Beal system, but In my experience, HF wheels are complete garbage, and I am a Harbor Freight fan. They fall apart way too soon. Caswell Plating has quality buffing wheels.

+1 on the Caswell Plating buffs.

Note that the buffs are not all of the same material -- Cotton and Flannel are used.

I purchased HF buffing wheels. They were horrible. The sewing was crude and they were way too floppy. I should have returned them but it was too much of a hassle. I ordered 3 6 inch wheels on ebay for $6 each and they work great.
