The Pferd 62576 POLIFAN Flap Disc is a premium abrasive tool engineered for the demanding requirements of industrial metalworking. Part of the renowned POLIFAN Superior line, this disc is specifically formulated to excel in applications involving steel. It features high-quality Zirconia Alumina (Z) grain, a tough and durable abrasive material known for its self-sharpening characteristics and ability to withstand high heat and pressure. This ensures that the disc maintains a consistent cut rate throughout its lifespan, providing excellent value for professional fabricators.
Measuring 7 inches in diameter with a standard 7/8-inch arbor, this disc is designed for use with larger, high-output angle grinders. The larger surface area allows for faster coverage on extensive workpieces, making it an efficient choice for structural steel fabrication, tank construction, and heavy equipment repair. The 120 grit rating places this disc in the fine finishing category, making it ideal for the final stages of surface preparation, blending welds to a smooth finish, or removing light imperfections before painting or coating.
The Type 29 conical profile is a critical feature of this product. Unlike flat (Type 27) discs, the Type 29 shape features angled flaps that provide greater surface contact when the grinder is held at a natural working angle (typically 15 to 25 degrees). This ergonomic design allows for more aggressive stock removal when needed and improves control when contouring or working on edges. The conical shape also helps to utilize the abrasive flaps more evenly, preventing premature wear on the outer edges and extending the overall life of the disc.
Pferd has constructed the 62576 with a durable backing that supports the flaps under heavy loads. This structural integrity is essential when applying the high contact pressure often required to remove material efficiently from hard steel surfaces. By combining advanced abrasive technology with robust construction, the Pferd POLIFAN Superior flap disc reduces the frequency of disc changes, thereby lowering overall process costs and increasing shop productivity.
