63608 - Pferd 5-Inch .045 Zipcut Wheel for Steel and Stainless

Precision Cuts for Clean Welds

For welders, the preparation is just as important as the weld itself. The Pferd 63608 5" x .045" Cut-Off Wheel is designed to give you the clean, precise cuts you need to fit up your joints perfectly. Known in the trade as a zipcut, this ultra-thin wheel slices through metal with incredible speed and very little resistance. The .045-inch thickness is the perfect balance between durability and precision, leaving a narrow kerf and a clean edge that requires minimal secondary grinding or deburring before you strike an arc.

This wheel shines when working with Stainless Steel. Heat buildup is the enemy of stainless, often leading to discoloration or warping. The Pferd 63608 cuts cool and fast, significantly reducing the heat affected zone (HAZ). It is also fully capable of tackling mild steel and other ferrous metals, making it a go-to disc for your angle grinder regardless of the project. The Type 1 flat shape allows you to utilize the full diameter of the wheel for cutting through pipe, angle iron, and flat bar with ease.

Safety and comfort are also built into the design. The smooth cutting action means the grinder is less likely to grab or kick back compared to lower-quality wheels. You don't need to lean hard on the tool; let the aluminum oxide grain do the work. Whether you are in the field or in the shop, having a stack of these Pferd wheels ensures you are ready for any cutting task that comes your way.
