Cheap sandpaper - Belts, discs etc??

Have a gecko at www.supergrit.com T/A Red Hill Corporation in the USA.....

I have been using them for 6 years and find them much cheaper for all types of abrasives. The Company is quick and dependable with orders taking about 9 days to get to Aus.

e.g. 50 of the 4 1/2" 120grit discs hook and loop for US$13.50
50 of the 6" 120grit discs hook and loop for US$15

aluminium oxide belts 4X24" 120grit 10 belts for US$11
4X36" 120grit 10 belts for US$15

even with the conversion from US$ and paying freight they are good value.
If you order too much you can get caught for import duties that can add up so beware. I usually try to stay under US$120 and it goes straight thru customs. Hope this helps some of you save some money!! Cheers

If you check arround your local abrasive specialiasts you will get deals similar to that without the freight of customs problems.

I buy 6" punched 6 hole hook & loop disks for between 50 & 65 cents each depending on brand

Soundman.......I have been unable to find anyone on the Sunshine Coast that can come near these prices, especially for the belts....can you give me the name of a company in Brissie??

I would be interested in any supplier of 6" AO disks suitable for the festo rabdom orbit sander

G'day Tony,

If you have a look at Supergrits website www.supergrit.com
go to online catalogue, then to browse and discs you can have a look at the prices.
they have 6" discs solid, or with 6, 8 or 16 vacuum holes.
I think by the time you convert the prices to the Aussie dollar and pay freight it works out at about $1 per disc?? The best savings are in their belts!!

good luck,

Ron
