Are these 19 or 25mm centers? Being 5" I would think are 25mm, is this correct? Cheers.

Arbor size is22.23 mm Remember the old days with 100 mm corded grinders and we had to use bushes half the time depending on what discs we bought. That drove me nuts. Now all cordless grinders and their discs have the one arbour size Thank god. Some Bunnings staff are fine but others should only be allowed to water the plants in the nursery

The 14” wheel ends up a 2” diameter before it goes in the bin.

Among various other things, I work with radio telecommunications.
Some of the guys I work with, work in a car/truck/trailer repair area near by. They are often welding, cutting steel, changing brakes, etc.
The radios I service are not used in the workshop - and don’t get any closer than say 50-100m.
Couple years ago, we migrated to a water proof hand held mic for radios and within 6 months, I had reports of failures...
On pulling these mics down - what I found was that the magnetic ring on the speaker (in mics) was completely gunned up, with tiny, tiny ferrous metal shavings - no doubt air born.
I was gobsmacked how much material had made its way into what is effectively a ip66 rated mic (99%) sealed...
Wear your ppe folks - protect your lungs when metal working for long times...this s**t floating in the air, no doubt came from our workshops - it can and will be asborbedin the lungs and can and will go rusty...I don’t know what that ultimately means to a human lung but it can’t be great. Fibre masks are 10c each...a lung replacement? Priceless...

You didn't look very hard...
A quick look has them listed at Parafield and Prospect around Adelaide. Don't know your Postcode so searching is just a guess so I'm not going through all the Bunnings around Adelaide..
