The Pferd 61003 is a high-performance 5-inch grinding wheel from the renowned Universal Line PSF series. Engineered for versatility and efficiency, this abrasive wheel is designed to handle the rigorous demands of industrial metalworking while remaining accessible for general-purpose applications. The wheel features a standard Type 27 depressed center configuration, making it compatible with a wide range of 5-inch angle grinders commonly used in fabrication shops, maintenance departments, and construction sites.
Constructed with a specialized Aluminum Oxide (A) grain and a resinoid bond, the A 24 L PSF specification indicates a coarse 24 grit for rapid stock removal and an 'L' hardness rating. This relatively soft bond is crucial for its performance characteristics; it allows the wheel to break down at a controlled rate, constantly exposing fresh, sharp grain. This self-sharpening action is particularly beneficial when using lower-powered angle grinders (in the 5-7 Amp range), as it prevents the wheel from glazing over or burning the workpiece due to lack of torque. It ensures a smooth, aggressive bite without requiring excessive operator pressure.
One of the key advantages of this specific wheel is its dual compatibility with both Carbon Steel and Stainless Steel (INOX). In mixed-material shops, having a single wheel that performs admirably on both materials reduces inventory complexity and changeover time. The INOX rating signifies that the wheel is manufactured without iron, sulfur, or chlorinated fillers that could otherwise contaminate stainless steel surfaces and lead to corrosion issues later. Whether you are grinding down heavy welds, chamfering edges, or deburring cut metal, the Pferd 61003 delivers consistent results.
