OVERVIEW

Professional Grade Aluminum Grinding Solutions

The Pferd 61301 is a premium 4.5-inch grinding wheel from the Performance Line SG, engineered specifically for the unique challenges of working with aluminum and other non-ferrous metals. In industrial fabrication, standard abrasives often fail when applied to soft metals because the material melts and clogs the grain—a process known as loading. This wheel utilizes a specialized N-ALU bond and grain structure that actively resists loading, ensuring that the wheel remains aggressive and effective throughout its service life.

Measuring 4.5 inches in diameter with a 1/4-inch thickness and a standard 7/8-inch arbor, this Type 27 depressed center wheel is compatible with standard industrial angle grinders. It is an essential consumable for fabrication shops dealing with aluminum structures, tanks, or architectural components. The wheel is formulated to deliver high stock removal rates without introducing contaminants that could compromise subsequent welding processes. By maintaining a cool cut and preventing glazing, the Pferd 61301 reduces downtime associated with wheel changes and surface rework.

Josef Gas supplies these high-performance abrasives to ensure your facility maintains peak productivity. Whether for heavy weld seam removal or surface leveling, the Pferd SG Aluminum series offers the reliability and consistency required by professional fabricators. The wheel is suitable for use on soft, tough, and hard aluminum alloys, providing a versatile solution for diverse inventory requirements.

FAQ

This wheel is specifically formulated with a bond and fillers that prevent soft metals like aluminum from clogging (loading) the abrasive surface, which is a common issue with standard wheels.

While it physically can grind steel, it is not recommended. The soft bond designed for aluminum will wear away very quickly on harder metals like steel, making it uneconomical.

The wheel has a standard 7/8-inch arbor, which fits most 4.5-inch and larger angle grinders.

No, the Pferd SG Aluminum wheel is designed to grind without leaving paraffin or wax residues that could cause porosity or defects in subsequent welds.

Always check the label on the specific wheel, but standard 4.5-inch Type 27 grinding wheels are typically rated for a maximum of 13,300 RPM.

Type 27 refers to the shape of the wheel. It is a depressed center wheel, which allows the locking nut to sit flush or recessed, permitting grinding at a 30 to 45-degree angle.

Yes, the Grade N-ALU is designed to offer excellent performance on soft, tough, and hard aluminum alloys.
