OVERVIEW

Technical Overview: Pferd POLIFAN Type 29 Flap Disc

The Pferd 60633 is a high-performance POLIFAN flap disc designed for demanding industrial grinding applications. Engineered with premium Zirconia Alumina abrasive grain, this 5-inch disc delivers aggressive stock removal rates while maintaining a long service life. The 40 grit specification makes it ideal for heavy-duty tasks such as weld seam removal, chamfering, and surface grinding on coarse materials.

This disc features a Type 29 conical shape, which provides an angled grinding surface. This geometry allows for greater surface contact area when held at the standard 15-25 degree angle used during grinding, making it superior for contour work and edge grinding compared to flat (Type 27) discs. The robust fiberglass backing plate ensures stability and safety during high-speed operation, rated for up to 12,200 RPM.

Optimized for versatility, the Pferd 60633 is formulated to perform exceptionally well on both Carbon Steel and Stainless Steel (INOX). Its cool-grinding properties help prevent thermal damage and discoloration on heat-sensitive materials. This "Thick" variant implies a high density of flaps, offering extended durability and consistent performance throughout the life of the tool.

FAQ

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

While it can grind aluminum, Zirconia Alumina is optimized for steel and stainless. For aluminum, a specialized disc with a coating to prevent loading (clogging) is recommended.

The maximum operating speed is typically 12,200 RPM. Always check the label on the disc to ensure your grinder does not exceed this speed.

No, 40 grit is a coarse abrasive designed for heavy stock removal. For finishing, you would typically step up to 60, 80, or 120 grit.

No, this is a 5-inch disc. It requires a grinder with a 5-inch guard and rating. It will not fit safely inside a standard 4.5-inch guard.

Zirconia Alumina is a tough, self-sharpening grain that holds up better under high pressure and heat than standard aluminum oxide, making it perfect for metal fabrication.

Pferd typically packages these flap discs in boxes of 10.
