OVERVIEW

Aggressive Stock Removal for Professional Fabricators

When you have a heavy weld to knock down or a rough steel plate that needs beveling, you need an abrasive that bites. The Pferd 62703 7-inch Fibre Disc is built for exactly that kind of work. With a coarse 36 grit rating, this disc is designed to rip through material quickly, saving you time and effort on the toughest grinding jobs. Whether you are leveling a butt weld on structural steel, removing heavy rust from a restoration project, or shaping a metal part, the Aluminum Oxide grain on this disc delivers a fast, consistent cut. It’s the kind of workhorse abrasive that every welder should have in their shop for those initial stages of fabrication where removing metal fast is the main goal.

One of the biggest frustrations with cheap grinding discs is how quickly they fall apart or lose their edge. Pferd has engineered this disc with a tough vulcanized fibre backing that holds up under pressure. You can lean into your grinder to dig out a defect or smooth a jagged edge without worrying about the disc shredding instantly. The resin bonding system locks the abrasive grains in place, so they keep cutting even as the heat builds up. This means you get more work done per disc, spending less time swapping out worn abrasives and more time welding and fabricating. It fits any standard 7-inch angle grinder with a 7/8-inch arbor, provided you have the correct backing pad to support it.

This disc is particularly well-suited for working on carbon steel. While it can handle other metals, its Aluminum Oxide composition shines when grinding mild steel and iron. It’s aggressive enough to strip mill scale in seconds but controllable enough to feather an edge for a seamless transition. For welders who demand reliability, Pferd delivers a product that feels balanced on the tool and performs consistently from the first spark to the last. Don't let a weak abrasive slow down your production; equip your grinder with the Pferd 62703 and experience the difference a quality fibre disc makes in your daily prep and finishing work.

FAQ

This Aluminum Oxide disc is best suited for general-purpose grinding on carbon steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals.

Yes, fibre discs are flexible and require a hard or medium rubber backing pad of the appropriate size (7 inch) to be used safely on an angle grinder.

This is a 36 grit disc, which is considered coarse. It is used for aggressive material removal, such as grinding down welds or removing heavy rust.

The arbor hole is 7/8 inch, which is the standard size for most 7-inch angle grinders.

While Aluminum Oxide can grind stainless steel, it is not the optimal choice as it may generate excessive heat. Zirconia or Ceramic grain discs are recommended for stainless steel to prevent discoloration and contamination.

Fibre discs cut faster and run cooler than bonded grinding wheels, but they have a shorter lifespan. They are better for surface blending and removing material over a larger area.

No, vulcanized fibre discs are sensitive to humidity and moisture. They should be stored in a dry place to prevent curling and degradation.

Always check the printed rating on the disc or packaging, but generally, 7-inch fibre discs are rated for around 8,500 to 8,600 RPM. Never exceed the max RPM of the disc or the backing pad.
