OVERVIEW

Reliable Abrasive Support: Pferd 42012 Rubber Mandrel

For welders and metal fabricators, achieving a flawless finish in hard-to-reach areas often requires specialized tooling. The Pferd 42012 POLICAP Expanding Rubber Holder is the perfect companion for your abrasive caps, specifically designed to tackle the challenges of finishing curved surfaces and tight corners. This holder features a Shape C profile, which combines a cylindrical body with a radius (rounded) end. This unique shape allows operators to grind and blend fillets and internal radii smoothly, avoiding the gouging that can occur with flat-ended tools.

Durability and performance are built into every aspect of this holder. The head is manufactured from a high-quality rubber compound that offers the perfect balance of flexibility and rigidity. It is flexible enough to expand and grip the abrasive cap securely when spun, yet rigid enough to transfer grinding pressure effectively to the workpiece. The 9/32-inch diameter is ideal for small, detailed work, while the industry-standard 1/8-inch shank fits most rotary tools and die grinders found in welding shops. The secure grip mechanism means you can work with confidence, knowing the abrasive cap will not slip or fly off during use.

Using the correct holder is critical for getting the most out of your abrasives. A worn or undersized holder can lead to vibration, poor finish quality, and premature abrasive failure. The Pferd 42012 is engineered to maintain its shape and grip over time, ensuring that you get full life out of every POLICAP abrasive cap. It is an indispensable tool for anyone performing detailed post-weld cleanup, surface preparation, or aesthetic finishing on stainless steel, aluminum, or carbon steel components. Simply slide a compatible POLICAP abrasive cap over the head, and the tool is ready for action.

FAQ

This holder is Shape C, which means it is cylindrical with a radius (rounded) end, making it ideal for finishing curves and fillets.

This holder is designed for caps with a 9/32-inch diameter that match the Shape C profile.

The rubber head is designed to expand slightly due to centrifugal force when the tool spins, creating a tight friction grip on the cap.

The shank diameter is 1/8 inch, which is a standard size for many precision die grinders and rotary tools.

While the rubber holder is resistant to moisture, POLICAP abrasive caps are typically used for dry grinding applications. Always check the abrasive specifications.

Yes, the rubber holder is a durable, reusable accessory. You only need to replace the abrasive caps as they wear out.

It is widely used in tool and die making, aerospace, and general metalworking where precision finishing of contours is required.

No, this product is the holder only. Compatible POLICAP abrasive caps must be purchased separately.
