61739 - Pferd 6-Inch Bench Grinder Wheel 36 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Sharpen, Shape, and Grind with Confidence

Upgrade your bench grinder with the Pferd 61739 6" Bench Wheel and experience the difference that professional-grade abrasives make in your home shop or welding garage. If you are tired of cheap grinding wheels that wobble, wear out instantly, or burn your tools, this Pferd aluminum oxide wheel is the solution. Designed for steel and ferrous metals, it provides the bite you need to reshape worn chisels, clean up mushroomed punches, or prep metal stock for welding.

The 36 grit abrasive is coarse and aggressive. This makes it the perfect "first step" wheel. Use it to grind out deep nicks in lawnmower blades, remove heavy rust and scale from salvaged steel, or quickly profile a piece of metal before moving to a finer wheel for finishing. The 3/4-inch width gives you plenty of surface area for stability when grinding longer edges, while the 1-inch arbor ensures it fits many larger or industrial-style bench grinders (check your machine's shaft size before ordering).

Why Choose Pferd?

Pferd is synonymous with quality in the metalworking world. This vitrified wheel is bonded at high temperatures to create a hard, durable structure that resists breaking down too quickly. This means you spend more time grinding and less time dressing the wheel. The wheel is also factory-balanced to run true, which keeps your grinder from walking across the bench and gives you better control over your workpiece.

Usage Tips

For the best results, always let the wheel reach full speed before grinding. Use light to moderate pressure—let the aluminum oxide grain do the work. If the wheel surface becomes clogged or glazed over time, a simple wheel dresser will expose fresh grain and restore its cutting power. Always wear appropriate eye and face protection, as sparks will fly!
