This keeps showing up in my feed. i Don’t know anything about this company. Is this free 10 pack worth $10 in shipping?

I did the free ones for $10. They’re fine from my experience. I’ve bought some other things from them too, home hobbyist type use.

Pretty good quality, and priced right. I've hit that offer 3-4 times in the last 10 years or so. Always required a new email address to redeem.

I use their products exclusively professionally and I Like everything they offer. I will say I have not used a flap disc often since I switch to resin discs which I would highly recommend looking into. $50+ orders give you free shipping I believe

Do they sell resin disc?
If so how's the quality, what other brands have you tried?
Thx

They sell just about anything abrasives, they even sell metal saw blades.

Quality on the resin discs is good enough and price is cheap enough that I haven’t looked elsewhere. They have two different abrasive compositions, the orange ones that are supposed to last longer aren’t worth it in my eyes.

I've been pretty happy with them. They last better than some name brands like DeWalt and much better than Harbor Freight discs. The hard discs they sell are definitely better than most. The sanding belts they sell have been pretty good, too. They seem to be at a sweet spot in the market place as far as performance and value. If you are paying shipping for the Freemix, you might as well get a few other things. Now the double cut burr I got from them broke the first time I tried to use it, but that was almost certainly all my fault.
