Scotch-Brite Radial Bristle Disc

Post by Tex_Lawrence »

I bought a supply of Scotch-Brite Radial Bristle Disc based on what others here on the forum had recommended. They were great for small production (quantities of 100) projects that I was working on that had inner pockets and things. And they worked quickly.

But they do wear down, and now they seem a lot more expensive; $1.58 for each on Amazon in a 24 pack of 120 grit.

I'm wondering if there is something better now.

Less than a dime each. Maybe also less durable?

I have been happy with their life, I had to look back in my Amazon orders it was 2020 last time I ordered any, I ordered the 25 pack it was $28 then, it’s up to $37.84 now.

Do you find the color of the disc can discolor the timber?
Thanks

No issues here with the yellow (80 grit?) or white(120 grit?) 3M ones that I used.
