Orbital sanding disks

[digitalbot]

I need to get some decent orbital sander disks. 125mm ones. So I was wondering which type/brand are the good ones that you guys use?
And what does the "C" weight, etc mean.

thanks.

I quite like the Hermes discs from Axminster, where the multi-hole design helps to reduce clogging over standard aluminium oxide discs and leaves less dust in the grain. For best results, you'd need to use your sander with dust extraction. They won't last as long as Abranet but, looking at Screwfix's site, they only appear to be available in 150mm diameter.
