Hi Sunny,

Hmm...that's a good question. I have no idea what brand they are since I never buy them at a store. I get them at garage sales, in construction site trash, etc.

The one I use right now looks like it's made of compressed wood shavings or something similar. It's about 1/2 inch thick, white on one side and tan on the other side.

I'm sorry that I can't help you more, but that should give you something to go on.

They don't last forever, so don't spend a fortune on them. Once they begin to soak up flux (which takes a fair while), they start to break apart and become useless.
