Tools and Hardware Reviews of Performax 60-2080 Ready to Wrap Abrasive Strips for Performax 22-44 Drum Sander 80 Grit(3 wraps in a box)Customer Review: Extremely Poor Quality Summary: 1 Stars
These strips were LOW LOW quality. I've had my Jet 22/44 for about 18 months and use it on wide boards, table tops or countertops that I make in my small commercial custom shop. Typically I use 80 grit strips only, and use it to flatten these wide surfaces by taking multiple light passes.
I normally purchase my abrasives from my local woodworking store, and have had great luck. However, recently my local store was out so I purchased these online.
However upon opening the box the strips themselves seemed different in three ways:
1. They came in an unmarked cardboard box (not the "Jet" box).
2. The strips seemed very dry and brittle.
3. The ends were cut a little differently, leaving only the smallest of strips available to clip into the drum itself.
The backside of the abrasive was labeled "Klingspor - Made In Germany", just like the ones I've previously gotten. But the plain cardboard box seemed a bit strange. I don't know what to make of that, but something seems not right.
Within 5 minutes of installing the first strip it broke. I worried that perhaps I didn't fasten it in correctly, so on the next strip, I made extra sure to get things just right. I was able to process about 150 square feet of wood before that second strip broke. This is still very poor performance. Just now I installed the third strip, which broke as soon as the drum was turned on: even BEFORE any wood was fed into it. Amazingly poor quality.
I'm very disappointed in the low quality of these strips.
