OVERVIEW

Experience Precision Cutting with Pferd Abrasives

When you need a cut so clean it barely needs deburring, reach for the Pferd 4.5" x .030" Cut-Off Wheel. This isn't your average grinding disc; it is a precision tool designed for the welder who cares about the quality of their prep work. The ultra-thin .030" thickness is a game-changer, allowing the wheel to glide through steel and stainless steel with incredible speed. Because it removes less material, your grinder works less, you exert less force, and the cut stays cooler.

Why Choose the .030" Thickness?
Standard cutting wheels can generate excessive heat, leading to the dreaded "blueing" on stainless steel. This Pferd wheel minimizes friction, preserving the integrity of your base metal and ensuring your subsequent welds are clean and strong. The Type 1 flat design is perfect for splitting plates or trimming stock where a straight, perpendicular edge is required.

Pferd has engineered this wheel for "Long Life" (as indicated by the product designation), balancing the aggressive bite of aluminum oxide with a durable bond system. It resists glazing and maintains a consistent cutting rate throughout its life. Whether you are in the shop fabricating custom parts or out in the field doing repairs, this wheel gives you the control and performance to get the job done right the first time. Compatible with your favorite 4-1/2" grinder.

FAQ

A .030 inch wheel is thinner than standard .045 inch wheels, allowing for faster cuts, less material waste, and reduced heat generation, which is crucial for stainless steel.

Yes, this Pferd wheel is formulated for use on both steel and stainless steel and is free of contaminants that cause corrosion.

Type 1 wheels are flat and used strictly for cutting on the edge. Type 27 wheels have a depressed center and can be used for cutting and light grinding, though Type 1 is generally preferred for pure cutting depth.

This wheel has a standard 7/8-inch arbor, fitting most 4-1/2 inch angle grinders.

No, this is a cut-off wheel only. It is too thin for side-loading or grinding applications and could shatter if used incorrectly.

Always wear a face shield, safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection. Ensure the grinder guard is in place and positioned correctly.

While you should always check the label on the specific wheel, standard 4.5-inch cut-off wheels are typically rated for around 13,300 RPM.
