OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade 5-Inch Grinding Wheel for Steel

The Pferd 60007 is a high-performance 5-inch grinding wheel from the renowned PSF Universal line, designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial fabrication and MRO environments. Engineered with a premium aluminum oxide grain and a reinforced resinoid bond, this wheel provides a reliable solution for general-purpose grinding on steel and ferrous metals. Its Type 27 depressed center configuration allows for optimal approach angles during surface grinding and weld removal, ensuring operator comfort and efficiency.

One of the distinguishing features of this specific SKU is its optimization for 5-7 Amp angle grinders. Many industrial wheels are bonded specifically for high-torque, high-amperage tools; however, the 60007 utilizes a bond matrix that breaks down effectively even under the lighter pressure typical of lower-amperage tools. This prevents glazing and ensures the wheel continues to cut aggressively without bogging down the machine, maximizing both tool life and abrasive performance. This makes it an excellent inventory choice for facilities utilizing a mix of heavy-duty and standard portable power tools.

Safety and consistency are hallmarks of the Pferd brand. The 60007 is manufactured to strict safety standards, providing peace of mind in high-speed grinding applications up to 12,200 RPM. With a standard 7/8-inch arbor, it is compatible with the vast majority of 5-inch angle grinders on the market. Whether for structural steel work, equipment repair, or general metal fabrication, this wheel delivers the cost-to-performance ratio required by procurement specialists and shop managers alike.

FAQ

This wheel is designed specifically for use on steel and other ferrous metals. It uses aluminum oxide grain which is ideal for carbon steel.

While it can physically grind stainless, it is not recommended. It may cause contamination (rust) on the stainless surface and will likely wear faster. For stainless steel, look for a wheel marked 'INOX' or 'Stainless'.

The arbor size is 7/8 inch, which is the industry standard for 4-1/2, 5, 7, and 9-inch angle grinders.

Type 27 refers to the shape of the wheel. It has a depressed center, which allows the mounting nut to sit recessed, enabling the operator to grind on the face of the wheel at a 15-30 degree angle without interference.

No, this is a 1/4-inch thick grinding wheel. It is designed for surface grinding and stock removal. For cutting, you should use a Type 1 or Type 27 cutting wheel (usually .045" or 1/8" thick).

The maximum safe operating speed is typically 12,200 RPM for 5-inch bonded abrasive wheels. Always check the label on the wheel itself to confirm before use.

This indicates the bond hardness is optimized for lower-power grinders. It ensures the wheel cuts freely without requiring the high torque that larger, industrial grinders provide, preventing the tool from stalling.

Packaging quantities can vary, but industrial grinding wheels are typically sold in boxes of 10 or 25. Please check the specific listing quantity.
