Great Source for Flap Discs

admin

I searched through here and couldn't find any mention of a Company I stumbled across last year. The company is called Lehigh Valley Abrasives. They sell flap discs for grinders in 4,4.5, 5 and 7" discs, and the prices and quality are great. You can buy 4.5" discs for under $1.75 each. I have absolutely no affiliation with the company other than being a happy satisfied customer.www.LehighValleyAbrasives.comChris Stone is the owner/manager908-892-2865KevMiller 210 and 140 MigsBernard Q-Torches on bothMiller Syncrowave 200Spoolmate 3035 for sale, excellent condtion- PM for detailsThermal Dynamics 38XLShop OutFitters 20/20 Bending SystemLots of other cheap and not so cheap tools Still have LOTS to learn, but got some nice stuff to learn on!

Reply:We also use the Lehigh Valley Flap Discs.  We found them to be the best price to performance ration disc on the market.  We use about 1000 per year smoothing mig welds on stainless steel hoppers for the food industry.  They have a new flap disc made with ceramic grain that is great on stainless steel.Thanks for the post.
Reply:How can I tell what discs are best for mild steel on that site???Come try it out and stay a while.
Reply:Thanks for reposting the link. I would fix the original one, but......... you can't edit your posts anymore I use the zirconia conical discs on mild steel all day long. I want to say the discs are made in Russia? I could be wrong but they are defenitely NOT China junk like HF Sells. They hold up pretty darn well, and the prices and their customer service are great. Chris tells me that the main difference is the ceramic last longer and are better suited for stianless, other than they are both used on mild steel aluminum, etc. KevMiller 210 and 140 MigsBernard Q-Torches on bothMiller Syncrowave 200Spoolmate 3035 for sale, excellent condtion- PM for detailsThermal Dynamics 38XLShop OutFitters 20/20 Bending SystemLots of other cheap and not so cheap tools Still have LOTS to learn, but got some nice stuff to learn on!
Reply:Hey Kev do you know were they are located? Maybe it would be easier for me just stop by if they are in Cali?
Reply:They are in New Jersey  but they ship quick and it only takes a few days. Shipping is about what Governator's sales tax would be.

Reply:This is a great thread.  Flap disks are a gift from the welding gods (helps me hide my imperfections!).Seriously, we need an entire section dedicated to great deals/supliers that others are finding.  Seems that this has been a real battle for alot of us (finding the deals).ThermalArc 185MillerMatic 180 w/ AutosetVictor Cutskill Oxy/AcetyleneThermal Dynamics Cutmaster 38and spite!

Reply:Pretty funny that the store prices are LESS expensive than the ebay auction prices. Never seen that before.4 1/2" Zirc disc from store is $1.72 each4 1/2" Zirc disc from ebay is $1.89 each
Reply:Ebay is NOT the inexpensive place to sell as it used to be. Many sellers, myself included, add that "cost of doing business" into the auction.
