Well I tried ordering it from them. They took my order and then sent me a notice that it wouldn't be in for 30 days. I got suspicious and tried calling more local sources. I was told by one who is an ESAB dealer that he had not been able to get EasyGrind for a year and that he was told it had been discontinued. :-X18 Then I called ESAB direct. The girl on the phone was very nice and when she tried to find stock said that there was a note in the computer that it had been discontinued and that there was a new part number. She said that she would contact the buyer to find out what is happening and would call me back. I'll post her response when she calls. :-huh

That's interesting since I know someone who received a spool of 0.023 and 0.030 from weldingsupply.com in the last few days.

They must have gotten the last spools. I just double checked with WS and they confirmed that there is a 28 day lead time. I got this in an email a couple days ago.

Hopefully they will get it back in soon. Worth waiting for.

Duplicate post - why is this happening admins?

The Easy Grind wire came in yesterday from weldingsupply.com. . . faster than the 30 days they originally predicted. I tried it out yesterday and it is great. It is much more forgiving on varying thickness rusty metal even when cleaned. Thanks AX & ET for sharing that tip. I highly recommend it. :D

I decided to order another spool, just in case it does go out of production. I ordered it through weldingsupply.com on 6/7/14 and it came today.
