OVERVIEW

Pferd POLIFAN PSF EXTRA High-Density Flap Disc

The Pferd 60465 POLIFAN PSF EXTRA flap disc represents a significant leap in abrasive efficiency for industrial applications. Designed for professionals who demand longevity and consistent performance, this 5-inch disc is engineered with a special flap arrangement that packs approximately 40% more material than the standard PSF line. This high-density construction directly translates to a longer service life, reducing the frequency of disc changes and thereby increasing overall shop productivity. For procurement managers and facility operators, the PSF EXTRA series offers an excellent price-to-performance ratio, minimizing inventory turnover while maintaining high output standards.

At the core of this disc is a premium Zirconia Alumina (Z) grain. Zirconia is renowned in the metalworking industry for its toughness and self-sharpening characteristics. As the grains fracture during use, they reveal new, sharp cutting edges, ensuring that the disc maintains a high stock removal rate throughout its lifespan. The 40 grit specification makes this particular model exceptionally aggressive, ideal for heavy-duty tasks such as removing weld seams, chamfering edges, and grinding down surface imperfections on structural steel.

The Type 27 (flat) profile of the disc is optimized for surface grinding. Unlike conical discs which are often preferred for edge work, the flat profile allows for smooth blending and finishing on flat surfaces, providing superior control to the operator. The disc is versatile enough to perform exceptionally well on both carbon steel and stainless steel (INOX), making it a universal solution for mixed-metal fabrication environments. It performs best when paired with high-powered angle grinders that can maintain rotational speed under load, ensuring the abrasive grain cuts efficiently rather than rubbing and generating excess heat.

By choosing the Pferd 60465, you are investing in a tool that balances aggressive removal rates with extended durability. It is an essential consumable for fabrication shops, maintenance departments, and manufacturing facilities looking to optimize their abrasive usage.

FAQ

The PSF EXTRA series is constructed with a special flap arrangement that includes approximately 40% more abrasive material than the standard PSF line, providing a significantly longer service life.

Yes, the Zirconia Alumina grain is suitable for use on both carbon steel and stainless steel (INOX), offering cool grinding to minimize heat discoloration.

Type 27 refers to the shape of the disc. It has a flat profile, which is generally preferred for surface grinding and blending on flat areas, as opposed to Type 29 which is conical.

The maximum safe operating speed for this 5-inch disc is typically 12,200 RPM. Always check the label on the disc to confirm before use.

No, flap discs have a built-in backing plate (usually fiberglass or plastic) and are designed to be mounted directly to the angle grinder without an additional backing pad.

40 grit is a coarse abrasive designed for heavy stock removal and initial grinding. For a smooth finish, you would typically follow up with a finer grit like 60, 80, or 120.

This disc fits 5-inch angle grinders with a standard 7/8-inch arbor. It is not compatible with 4.5-inch grinders due to the larger diameter.

Zirconia is tougher and more durable than Aluminum Oxide. It is self-sharpening and withstands higher heat and pressure, making it better suited for grinding steel and stainless steel aggressively.
