62367 - Pferd POLIFAN 5-Inch Aluminum Flap Disc 80 Grit Type 27

Grind Aluminum Without the Clog

Every welder knows the frustration of taking a grinder to aluminum. You put a fresh disc on, make two passes, and suddenly the disc is black, gummed up, and useless. It stops cutting and starts smearing, generating heat that can warp your piece. The Pferd 62367 POLIFAN Flap Disc is the solution to that headache. It is built specifically to resist loading, meaning it spits out the aluminum chips instead of holding onto them. This keeps the abrasive sharp and cutting aggressively, long after a standard disc would have hit the trash bin.

Why Choose 80 Grit?
This 80-grit version is your go-to for finishing and blending. If you have already knocked down the heavy bead with a coarser disc, or if you are working on thinner gauge aluminum where you need finesse, this is the tool. It leaves a smooth, consistent scratch pattern that looks professional and is easy to prep for paint or clear coat. The Type 27 flat shape gives you plenty of surface contact, making it easier to flatten out welds without digging gouges into the base metal.

Cool Cutting Action
Heat is the enemy when finishing aluminum. If the metal gets too hot, it gets soft and gummy, making the grinding process even worse. This Pferd disc runs cool, helping you maintain the temper of the metal and avoid those ugly heat tints. Whether you are building custom tanks, repairing boat hulls, or fabricating architectural aluminum, having a stack of these 5-inch discs in your shop ensures you spend more time working and less time changing out clogged abrasives.
