OVERVIEW

Aggressive Bite, Longer Life

Stop wasting time changing out burnt-up discs halfway through a job. The Pferd POLIFAN PSF ZIRKON-EXTRA 5" Flap Disc is built for welders who need to move metal fast. With a coarse 36 grit Zirconia abrasive, this disc bites hard into steel and stainless steel, ripping through heavy weld seams and slag with ease. Whether you are prepping a joint or smoothing out a cap, the Zirconia grain stays sharp, fracturing as it wears to reveal fresh cutting edges so you maintain a consistent cut rate from the first spark to the last.

More Flaps, More Grinding

Time is money in the shop. That's why Pferd engineered the ZIRKON-EXTRA series with 40% more material than their standard discs. This high-density design packs more flaps onto the fiberglass backing, giving you a disc that lasts significantly longer. Fewer disc changes mean more arc time and less downtime walking to the tool crib. It is the cost-effective solution for high-volume fabrication shops where performance and longevity are critical.

Type 29 for Contours

The conical Type 29 shape is a welder's best friend for contour work. The angled profile allows you to get into tighter spots and grind at a more comfortable angle, applying more pressure where it counts without gouging the workpiece. The slight cushion provided by the layered flaps helps blend surfaces smoothly, leaving a finish that is often ready for the next step without needing a secondary sanding pass. Fit this 5-inch disc onto your 7/8" arbor grinder and experience the difference premium German engineering makes.

FAQ

Type 27 discs are flat and best for blending and finishing on flat surfaces. Type 29 discs, like this one, are conical (angled) and are better suited for aggressive stock removal and contour work.

While Zirconia can grind aluminum, it is not optimized for it and may load up (clog) quickly. It is best suited for steel and stainless steel. For aluminum, look for discs specifically designed with coatings to prevent loading.

The 'Zirkon' refers to the Zirconia Alumina abrasive grain. 'Extra' indicates that the disc is constructed with approximately 40% more material than standard discs, providing a longer service life.

This disc has a standard 7/8-inch arbor, which fits most 4.5-inch and 5-inch angle grinders.

No, 36 grit is a coarse abrasive designed for heavy stock removal and grinding. For finishing or blending, you would typically step up to a 60, 80, or 120 grit disc.

These are typically sold individually or in packs of 10. Please check the specific quantity selector on the product page.

Always check the label on the actual disc for the safety rating, but standard 5-inch flap discs are typically rated for around 12,200 to 13,300 RPM.

No, flap discs have a built-in backing plate (usually fiberglass or plastic) and do not require a separate backing pad like fiber discs do.
