OVERVIEW

Superior Steel Grinding with Pferd POLIFAN Technology

The Pferd 62226 POLIFAN Flap Disc represents the pinnacle of abrasive engineering for industrial steel applications. Part of the Performance Line SG, this tool is specifically formulated to meet the rigorous demands of professional metal fabrication and MRO environments. Unlike general-purpose abrasives, the "Steel Superior" designation indicates a specialized bonding agent and zirconia alumina grain structure optimized for carbon steel. This ensures that the disc does not glaze over prematurely, maintaining a high cut rate from the first spark to the last.

Measuring 5 inches in diameter with a standard 7/8-inch arbor, this disc is compatible with most industrial angle grinders. The Type 29 conical profile is a critical feature for heavy-duty applications; the angled flaps allow the operator to apply greater pressure for aggressive stock removal while maintaining a comfortable working posture. This shape is particularly effective for grinding fillet welds, chamfering edges, and contouring irregular surfaces where flat discs might struggle to maintain consistent contact.

Efficiency is key in production environments, and the Pferd 62226 delivers by combining rapid stock removal with an exceptionally long service life. The 60 grit abrasive provides a versatile middle ground, capable of leveling welds quickly while leaving a surface finish that is often sufficient for painting or coating without further refinement. The robust fiberglass backing plate offers structural integrity and safety, dampening vibrations to reduce the risk of hand-arm vibration syndrome during prolonged use.

For facility managers and procurement specialists, choosing the Pferd 62226 means investing in reduced downtime. Fewer disc changes translate to more arc-on time and higher throughput. Whether used in structural steel fabrication, pipeline construction, or heavy machinery repair, this flap disc provides the reliability and performance required to keep operations running smoothly.

FAQ

The Pferd 62226 is specifically designed for use on Steel (carbon steel) and ferrous metals, offering optimized performance and longevity on these materials.

Type 29 discs are conical (angled), which provides better surface contact for aggressive stock removal and edge work. Type 27 discs are flat and are better suited for blending and finishing on flat surfaces.

The maximum operating speed for this 5-inch disc is 12,200 RPM. Always ensure your angle grinder does not exceed this rating.

While it can grind stainless steel, Pferd offers specific 'INOX' lines that are better suited for stainless to prevent heat buildup and contamination. This 'Steel' line is best for carbon steel.

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

60 grit is a medium-coarse abrasive. It is aggressive enough to remove weld seams and heavy rust but leaves a smoother finish than 36 or 40 grit discs.

This disc has a 7/8" arbor hole, which is the industry standard for 4.5", 5", and 7" angle grinders.

Standard fiberglass-backed flap discs are generally not trimmable. You should use the disc until the abrasive is worn down, then replace it.
