ahh but don't forget the forum police will be on to you if they get out of date and must be put in the bin NOT I still have 75 stillsaw stone disks from 35 years ago kept in blue plastic bags and are as good as the day they were made

Would be interesting to see how these compare to the Erbauer ones!

No stores locally have them in stock where I live & I'm not short of cutting discs either.

I do question if they bulk buy a ship load of these & shift them cheap. As I haven't seen these discs before

I usually buy Erbauer, from Screwfix. They aren’t cheap, but work well.

I am down to my last two discs in stock, so good timing, assuming these cheapies work okay.

i use cheapo bluespot ones and there great so these will be still decent

I bought some a while back at 25p a disc, But I've become a cutting disc snob since using Tryolit & Klingspor

Be interesting to see how these perform, the last screwfix discs I bought were made from cardboard, at least that's what they seemed like when using them, as far as I can see they don't seem to have INOX written on them so don't expect to be cutting much stainless with them either.
I hope for the sake of all that bought them that I'm wrong, but I wont be buying any, I think I'll stick to the Abracs Phoenix ones.

il run one through some 1/8 or quarter plate and tell you if there any good when I get them ive been using bluespot ones that cut stainless and there a cheapie and work well for the price

Be interested to see how they compare. Someone has got to one day actually do a side by side to settle the difference between cheap and expensive.

I would do a test, but off to France on my bike tomorrow night, no time to play in the garage.

 

[Olderisbetter]

I got a load of inox ones from the car boot for 10p each last year but i text my mate as he is running about today so he has gone on the hunt

Imported you mean.

From China biscuit factory no.3.

 

[Arclikeharrypotter]

Me and @Ashley Burton swapped a few different discs, and have to say for the price when they were on offer the erbauer ones were half decent.

 

[julianf]

Has anyone picked up and tested any of these yet?

My normal ones are the Bosch thin ones which I get for 49p a unit. Sure, the Screwfix ones are less than half price, but even if they're only half as good, I'd rather not bother as you're always messing about changing them.

...I have 10 packs on click and collect, so I thought I'd ask for feedback before driving over there!

I tried one of these yesterday. They seem pretty hard and throw sparks and dust and bits all over the place. I have declared them 'Outdoor use only' Still well worth a quid though.
