OVERVIEW

High-Performance Finishing with Pferd POLIFAN Flap Discs

The Pferd 62055 POLIFAN Flap Disc is a premium abrasive tool designed for professional metalworkers who demand efficiency and quality. Engineered with high-quality Zirconia Alumina grain, this 4-1/2 inch disc excels in applications involving stainless steel (INOX) and other hard alloys. The 120 grit composition makes it the perfect choice for the final stages of fabrication, including blending weld seams, surface refinement, and preparing metal for polishing or painting.

This disc features a Type 29 conical profile. Unlike flat (Type 27) discs, the conical shape is angled to provide greater surface contact when the grinder is held at a natural 15 to 25-degree angle. This ergonomic design allows for more aggressive stock removal when needed, while also facilitating smoother blending on contours and edges. The overlapping flap design ensures that fresh abrasive grain is constantly exposed, preventing glazing and ensuring a cool cut that minimizes heat buildup—critical when working with heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel.

Durability is a hallmark of the Pferd POLIFAN line. The robust fiberglass backing plate offers stability and safety without the need for a separate backing pad, streamlining your tool assembly. Whether you are working in a heavy industrial fabrication shop or a precision metal studio, the Pferd 62055 delivers consistent results, reducing downtime for disc changes and lowering overall abrasive costs.

Key Technical Benefits

  • Cool Grinding: Specialized coating and grain structure reduce heat generation, preventing thermal discoloration on stainless steel.
  • Consistent Finish: 120 grit provides a uniform scratch pattern ideal for pre-polish preparation.
  • Versatility: Effective on steel, stainless steel, and high-temperature alloys.

FAQ

Type 27 discs are flat and best for finishing on flat surfaces at lower angles (0-15 degrees). Type 29 discs, like the Pferd 62055, are conical (angled) and are better for aggressive stock removal and contour work at steeper angles (15-25 degrees).

This disc uses Zirconia Alumina abrasive grain, which is durable and self-sharpening, making it ideal for tough materials like stainless steel and carbon steel.

No, this flap disc has an integrated fiberglass backing plate that mounts directly to the angle grinder, so no separate backing pad is required.

120 grit is a fine abrasive used for finishing, blending, and smoothing surfaces. It is typically used after coarser grits (like 40 or 60) to remove scratches and prepare the metal for polishing or painting.

While it can grind aluminum, Zirconia discs may load up (clog) faster on soft metals. For aluminum, discs specifically designed with a coating to prevent loading are recommended, though this will work for short tasks.

The maximum safe operating speed is typically 13,300 RPM for 4-1/2 inch flap discs. Always check the label on the disc to confirm.

It fits standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinders with a 7/8 inch arbor (spindle). This is the most common size for small angle grinders.
