Hi everybody,
Happy new year to you all.
I am looking for advice on what type of felt would be suitable for a surface grinder spindle that runs on plain bearings. And who might supply it.
I did get some from a local supplier in Melbourne and it looked good, but it it is full of very fine grit and the fibres just seem to go everywhere - so not that great for a low clearance spindle. Not their fault really - this is at the extreme end of what felt might be expected to do I guess.
So I figuring it has to be very high quality, very clean, and a tight structure.
All help / advice appreciated.
Greg.
