61026 - Pferd 4.5-Inch Type 27 Performance Grinding Wheel for Steel

Reliable Grinding Power for Professional Welders

For welders, the quality of the grind is often just as important as the quality of the weld. The Pferd 61026 4-1/2" Grinding Wheel is built to be a workhorse in the welding booth and on the job site. Designed specifically for steel, this Type 27 wheel offers the aggressive bite needed to prep joints, clean up heavy slag, and bevel plate edges quickly and effectively. With a 1/4-inch thickness, it provides the rigidity and durability necessary for heavy stock removal without flexing or chattering, giving you precise control over your workpiece.

Time is money in the welding trade, and this Pferd wheel helps you save both. Its high stock removal rate means you spend less time grinding and more time welding. The wheel is engineered to resist glazing, keeping fresh abrasive grain exposed to the metal for a consistent cut from the first spark to the last. This is particularly beneficial when working on edge grinding or beveling applications where high pressure is applied. The wheel's long service life means fewer trips to the tool crib for replacements, keeping your workflow uninterrupted and efficient.

The depressed center design (Type 27) allows for a comfortable grinding angle, typically between 30 and 45 degrees, which is ideal for smoothing weld seams and attacking root passes. The 7/8-inch arbor fits securely on most standard 4-1/2" and 5" angle grinders, ensuring broad compatibility with your existing power tools. Whether you are grinding down a cap, prepping a V-groove, or removing spatter and defects, this wheel delivers the performance professional fabricators trust.

Pferd is known globally for manufacturing abrasives that prioritize operator comfort and safety. The 61026 runs smoothly with minimal vibration relative to its aggressive cutting action, reducing operator fatigue during long shifts. When tackling mild steel projects that require serious metal removal, this grinding wheel provides the toughness and consistency professional welders demand to get the job done right.
