OVERVIEW

Maximize Your Grinding Efficiency with Pferd

When it comes to metal fabrication, time is money, and the Pferd 60642 6-Inch Flap Disc is built to save you both. This high-performance abrasive tool combines the aggressive cutting power of a grinding wheel with the surface finishing capabilities of a fiber disc. Featuring a coarse 60 grit Zirconia Alumina abrasive, it is the ideal choice for welders who need to remove stock quickly on steel projects without sacrificing control or finish quality.

Built for the Toughest Jobs

Standard flap discs often wear out too quickly when faced with hard steel and heavy weld removal. The Pferd POLIFAN SG series addresses this by packing 40% more material into the disc compared to standard alternatives. This means you get a "Superior" lifespan out of every disc, reducing the number of trips to the supply cabinet and keeping your grinder running longer. The Zirconia grain is tough and self-sharpening, fracturing to reveal new sharp edges as it works, which maintains a high cut rate throughout the life of the product.

Why Choose Type 29?

This disc features a Type 29 conical shape, which is the preferred style for aggressive stock removal. The angled flaps provide maximum contact area when grinding at steeper angles (15°–25°), making it perfect for working on edges, contours, and complex weld seams. The 6-inch diameter offers a larger working surface area than standard 4.5-inch discs, further speeding up large fabrication jobs.

  • Fast Cutting: Zirconia grain slices through steel with ease.
  • Long Lasting: High-density flap arrangement extends life.
  • Versatile: 60 grit is perfect for blending welds and deburring.
  • Smooth Operation: Fiberglass backing dampens vibration.

Equip your shop with the Pferd 60642 and experience the difference that premium German-engineered abrasives make on your daily grind. Perfect for structural steel, tank fabrication, and general heavy-duty maintenance repairs.

FAQ

Type 29 discs have a conical shape with angled flaps, ideal for aggressive grinding and contour work at angles of 15-25 degrees. Type 27 discs are flat, better suited for blending and finishing on flat surfaces at lower angles (0-15 degrees).

While it can physically grind aluminum, this disc is optimized for steel. Using it on aluminum may cause the disc to 'load' or clog with soft metal, reducing its life. A disc specifically designed for non-ferrous metals is recommended for aluminum.

Zirconia Alumina is a synthetic abrasive grain that is tougher and more durable than standard aluminum oxide. It is self-sharpening and withstands high heat, making it excellent for heavy-duty grinding on steel and stainless steel.

Always check the label on the physical disc for the specific safety rating. Generally, 6-inch flap discs are rated for a maximum speed around 10,200 RPM. Never exceed the Max RPM marked on the product.

No, this flap disc comes with an integrated fiberglass backing plate. It mounts directly to the angle grinder using the standard flange nut or a quick-change nut, requiring no separate backing pad.

The SG (Performance) line is a step up from the PSF (Universal) line. It typically features higher-grade abrasive grains and a denser flap configuration (up to 40% more material), offering longer life and faster cutting speeds for professional users.

Standard PPE for angle grinding includes a face shield over safety glasses, hearing protection, heavy-duty gloves, and flame-resistant clothing. Ensure the grinder guard is always in place.
