OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Grinding Performance

The Pferd 62223 POLIFAN Flap Disc is a premium abrasive tool designed for industrial environments where efficiency and durability are paramount. Part of the renowned POLIFAN Superior line, this 4-1/2 inch disc utilizes high-quality Zirconia Alumina grain, a material known for its toughness and ability to withstand high heat and pressure. This makes it an excellent choice for fabrication shops, maintenance departments, and manufacturing facilities that process steel components regularly.

With a 60 grit rating, this disc strikes a balance between rapid material removal and surface blending. It is aggressive enough to tackle heavy stock removal tasks but leaves a finish that prepares the surface for subsequent processing steps. The 7/8 inch arbor ensures compatibility with the vast majority of standard angle grinders used in the industry today. By combining multiple layers of coated abrasive flaps, Pferd ensures that fresh grain is constantly exposed, maintaining a consistent cut rate from the first spark to the last.

Operators will appreciate the Type 29 conical profile. Unlike flat discs, the angled design allows for more comfortable ergonomics when grinding at steep angles (15-25 degrees). This shape maximizes the contact area for edge work and contouring, reducing operator fatigue and increasing throughput. Whether you are deburring machined parts or smoothing out rough castings, the Pferd 62223 delivers the reliability expected from German engineering.

Cost-Effective Abrasive Solution

Investing in high-performance abrasives like the Pferd POLIFAN series reduces total operational costs. The extended service life of Zirconia Alumina means fewer disc changes, less downtime, and reduced waste. For businesses focused on lean manufacturing and optimizing MRO budgets, this flap disc offers a superior price-to-performance ratio compared to standard aluminum oxide alternatives.

FAQ

Type 27 discs are flat and best for finishing on flat surfaces at lower angles (0-15 degrees). Type 29 discs, like this Pferd 62223, are conical (angled) and are better suited for aggressive stock removal and contour work at steeper angles (15-25 degrees).

This disc is part of the 'Steel Superior' line and is optimized for use on carbon steel and other ferrous metals.

Zirconia Alumina is tougher and more durable than standard Aluminum Oxide. It is self-sharpening, meaning it fractures to expose new sharp edges, providing a faster cut and longer life, especially under high pressure.

The arbor size is 7/8 inch, which is the standard size for most 4-1/2 inch and 5-inch angle grinders.

Yes, but as a 60 grit disc, it is considered a medium-coarse abrasive. It will leave a scratch pattern suitable for paint adhesion but may require a finer grit (80 or 120) follow-up for a smooth cosmetic finish.

No, flap discs have a built-in backing plate. You do not need a separate rubber backing pad like you would for resin fiber discs.

While always check the physical disc label for safety, standard 4-1/2 inch flap discs are typically rated for a maximum of 13,300 RPM.

Pferd typically packages these flap discs in boxes of 10.
