62452 - Pferd 4-1/2 Inch 24 Grit Aluminum Oxide Fiber Disc

Aggressive Stock Removal for Welders

When you need to strip metal fast, the Pferd 62452 4-1/2" Fiber Disc with 24 Grit Aluminum Oxide is your go-to abrasive. Designed for the welder who needs to prep surfaces quickly or grind down heavy welds, this disc offers an aggressive cut that saves you time and effort. The coarse 24 grit texture bites into the material, making short work of scale, rust, and excess weld metal. It’s the heavy hitter you want in your angle grinder when finesse takes a backseat to speed and power.

Pferd is known for producing abrasives that hold up under pressure. This fiber disc is built on a tough vulcanized fiber backing that resists tearing and deformation, even when you lean into the grind. The Aluminum Oxide grain is tough and resists fracturing too early, meaning you get more grind time out of every disc. It’s a cost-effective solution for shops that go through consumables daily but refuse to sacrifice performance.

Performance You Can Feel

Using the Pferd 62452 feels different than cheaper alternatives. The grain distribution is uniform, providing a consistent cut that doesn't gouge unpredictably. While 24 grit is coarse, the control provided by the high-quality backing allows for precise material removal. It is perfect for:

• Grinding down heavy weld beads
• Removing mill scale from hot-rolled steel
• Deburring rough cut edges
• Stripping paint and heavy corrosion

Setup and Compatibility

This disc features a standard 7/8" center hole, fitting perfectly on almost any 4-1/2" or 5" angle grinder found in a welding shop. Note: Fiber discs are not rigid; they must be used with a compatible backing pad (sold separately). The backing pad provides the necessary support and cooling air flow to keep the disc cutting efficiently. Whether you are working on mild steel structural beams or cleaning up aluminum castings, this Pferd disc delivers the bite you need to get the job done right.
