OVERVIEW

Pferd POLIFAN PSF ZIRKON-EXTRA Flap Disc 5" x 7/8" 60 Grit

The Pferd 60635 POLIFAN PSF ZIRKON-EXTRA Flap Disc is a high-performance abrasive tool designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial metalworking. Engineered with premium Zirconia Alumina grain, this 5-inch disc excels in aggressive stock removal while maintaining a cool cut, making it ideal for both carbon steel and stainless steel (INOX) applications. The "EXTRA" designation in the PSF line signifies a specialized construction featuring a high-density flap arrangement. This design incorporates approximately 40% more abrasive material than standard PSF discs, translating directly to a significantly longer service life and fewer disc changes for the operator.

This specific model features a Type 29 conical profile. Unlike flat Type 27 discs, the Type 29 shape is angled to provide greater surface contact when held at the natural grinding angle of 15 to 25 degrees. This makes it particularly effective for contour work, edge grinding, and weld seam blending where aggressive material removal is required. The 60 grit abrasive offers a versatile middle ground, capable of stripping away material quickly while leaving a manageable surface finish that can be easily refined if necessary.

Durability is a core feature of the Pferd POLIFAN series. The robust fiberglass backing plate ensures structural integrity under high pressure and helps absorb vibration, reducing operator fatigue during extended grinding sessions. Whether you are fabricating structural steel, smoothing heavy welds, or performing general maintenance repairs, the Pferd 60635 delivers consistent performance and economic value through its extended lifespan.

Key Applications

  • Weld Blending: Efficiently levels weld seams on steel and stainless steel structures.
  • Chamfering and Deburring: Ideal for preparing edges and removing heavy burrs from cut metal parts.
  • Surface Grinding: Capable of smoothing rough surfaces and removing mill scale or rust.
  • Contour Work: The conical shape allows for easier access and better control on curved surfaces.

FAQ

Type 29 discs are conical (angled), making them better for aggressive stock removal and contour work. Type 27 discs are flat, making them better for blending and finishing on flat surfaces.

This disc is designed for use on Steel and Stainless Steel (INOX). It uses Zirconia Alumina grain which is effective on these hard metals.

The 'EXTRA' designation indicates that this disc is part of Pferd's high-density line, containing approximately 40% more abrasive material than standard discs for longer service life.

While you should always check the disc label, standard 5-inch flap discs typically have a maximum rating around 12,200 RPM.

No, this flap disc comes with an integrated fiberglass backing plate and mounts directly to the angle grinder using the standard flange nut.

60 grit is considered a medium-coarse grit. It is excellent for general grinding, weld blending, and stock removal, leaving a smoother finish than 36 or 40 grit.

While it can grind aluminum, Zirconia discs may load up (clog) faster on soft metals. Discs specifically designed for aluminum with special coatings are recommended for extensive aluminum work.

This disc has a standard 7/8-inch unthreaded arbor hole, compatible with most 4.5-inch and 5-inch angle grinders.
