The photos show the 5 different wheels I am going to try, along with 5 different arbors! 

From left to right (density, mineral, grade): 9-C-XCoarse; 9-C-Coarse; 5-A- Fine; 6-C-Medium; 2-S-Fine. The other markings are 3M marketing/application terms.

These discs have either 1/4-inch or 3/8-inch ID mounting holes, and I have them mounted on 1/4-diameter arbors which can fit into: a drill press; hand-held drill; die grinder; drill chuck on a bench motor (my choice). Some are also available with a 'Rol-Loc' mount, in larger diameters for use on a bench grinder, etc.

These particular discs are speed rated from16,000 to 18,000 RPM, and need to be used on speed-compatible arbors and tools - check what you have/use.

They are commonly used for weld blending, and are sold through industrial suppliers (Grainger, Fastenal, Enco, MSC Direct, etc.), as well as welding supply houses and Internet vendors.  Cost seems to run between about $5 - $12 each wheel (without the arbor), depending on the size, type, vendor, and quantity: some need to be ordered in boxes of 40 to get the best price, so maybe find some friends to split a box, or be nice to a welder.
