Nice to see another brand of hard wearing slitting discs

My current batch have been quite good & are hard wearing ( Can't remember the brand )

Use them quite extensively for quite a few years now

That said, they still give me the proverbial willys using them

I bought these expecting them to be crap because of the price.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1mm-Cutting-Di...item20b75b28c1

Very surprised. I cut through two pieces of 40mm mild steel bar a couple of days ago and the disc didn't reduce by 1/4". Been using them to cut chassis plates,diff plates etc and still got ten left. A definite reccommendation from me.

Default Slitting disc.

In my job i buy 200 @ a time for about the same price as GAZ found http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1mm-Cutting-Di...item20b75b28c1, you need to check that they are classed as INOX as this is the correct type for stainless and last a long time cutting mild steel.
