OVERVIEW

High-Performance Abrasive Solutions for Industrial Steel Applications

The Pferd 61026 Grinding Wheel is a premium abrasive tool designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial metalworking. Part of Pferd's Performance line, this wheel is engineered to deliver superior stock removal rates while maintaining a long service life, effectively reducing downtime associated with frequent wheel changes. Measuring 4-1/2 inches in diameter with a 1/4-inch thickness and a 7/8-inch arbor, it is compatible with standard angle grinders found in fabrication shops, maintenance departments, and construction sites.

This Type 27 depressed center wheel is specifically formulated for use on steel and other ferrous metals. Its robust construction allows it to withstand high contact pressure, making it an ideal choice for severe grinding applications. Whether the task involves heavy edge grinding, beveling for weld preparation, or general surface smoothing, the Pferd 61026 provides the lateral stability and durability required for safe and efficient operation. The wheel's composition ensures consistent performance throughout its life, providing operators with a reliable tool that maintains its cutting aggression until the abrasive is fully consumed.

In industrial environments where efficiency is paramount, the balance between removal rate and wheel longevity is critical. Pferd has optimized this grinding wheel to excel in both areas, offering a solution that helps lower overall production costs. By minimizing the time spent replacing worn abrasives and maximizing the material removed per minute, this grinding wheel supports high-throughput operations. It is particularly effective for chamfering and deburring flame-cut parts, ensuring clean surfaces ready for subsequent processing or finishing.

Safety and performance go hand in hand with Pferd abrasives. The 61026 is manufactured to strict quality standards, ensuring structural integrity even under the stress of heavy mechanical loads. For facility managers and procurement specialists looking for a dependable, general-purpose steel grinding wheel that does not compromise on quality, this Pferd abrasive offers a proven track record of success in challenging MRO and fabrication environments.

FAQ

The Pferd 61026 is specifically designed for use on steel and ferrous metals.

No, this is a 1/4-inch thick grinding wheel. It is too thick for cutting. For cutting applications, you should use a cutoff wheel (typically .045" or 1/16" thick).

This wheel features a standard 7/8-inch arbor hole.

It fits standard 4-1/2 inch angle grinders that accept a 7/8-inch arbor.

Type 27 refers to a depressed center grinding wheel, which allows the locking nut to sit flush or recessed, permitting grinding at a 30-45 degree angle without interference.

While it can grind stainless steel, it is optimized for mild steel. For best results and to avoid contamination on stainless steel, a dedicated stainless-grade wheel is recommended.

The wheel is 1/4 inch thick, which provides the necessary strength for side-loading during grinding.

Yes, the Pferd 61026 is particularly recommended for severe, high-pressure applications like edge grinding and beveling.
