We made our way through the totally insane Fireball Tools fiber grinding disc test series with two fiber discs at a time, and now we’ve got one more to throw in the mix. This testing is about as thorough as it gets, and follows their huge flap disc test series which definitely has influenced my flap disc buying. If you prefer fiber discs for your metal finishing, watch this entire series too!
At the beginning of the series, we shared the video from Fireball Tool where Jason was building the ultimate grinding disc test rig in preparation for the ultimate grinding wheel test we’ve ever seen. And now it is time to put them to the test and see the results. If you are familiar with Fireball Tool videos, then you know that they are as thorough as is practical, and that a lot of thought and preparation goes into them. If you doubt that before watching these videos, make sure you click the link below to see how he created this test rig being used.
In the video below you’ll see a Walter Xtracut fiber disc get put through its paces. The data from each test will be used to score each of them and ultimately bring you a winner after 48 tests. Yes, 48. We can’t wait to see whether we’ve been buying the right discs, or have been screwing it up for years.
