61114 - PFERD 4-1/2 Inch SG INOX Grinding Wheel with 5/8-11 Hub

High-Performance Grinding for Industrial Applications

The PFERD Performance Line SG Grinding Wheel represents a premium solution for industrial metalworking, specifically engineered to meet the rigorous demands of grinding stainless steel (INOX). This 4-1/2 inch Type 27 wheel is constructed with high-quality Aluminum Oxide grain, optimized to deliver a superior balance between aggressive stock removal and long service life. In professional fabrication environments where time and finish quality are paramount, the SG INOX line stands out by reducing process time and tool changes.

One of the critical technical advantages of this wheel is its formulation. It is manufactured without the addition of ferrous, sulphurous, or chlorinated fillers. This purity is essential when working with stainless steel, as it eliminates the risk of cross-contamination that can lead to corrosion or pitting after the job is done. The bond system is tuned to a 'soft' hardness (Grade N), which allows the abrasive grains to fracture and renew continuously. This self-sharpening action ensures that the wheel cuts cool and fast, rather than glazing over and generating friction heat, which is a common issue with harder, general-purpose wheels on stainless alloys.

Designed for heavy-duty use, this wheel features a 1/4-inch thickness and a depressed center (Type 27) profile, making it ideal for grinding welds, chamfering edges, and surface preparation. The integrated 5/8-11 threaded hub significantly enhances operational efficiency by allowing for tool-free mounting and dismounting, reducing downtime between wheel changes. Whether utilized in tank fabrication, pipeline construction, or general MRO tasks, the PFERD SG INOX wheel delivers consistent, reliable performance that professionals trust to maintain productivity and safety standards.

PFERD's commitment to quality is evident in the rigorous testing and development of the Performance Line SG. By choosing this abrasive, facility managers and procurement specialists ensure their teams are equipped with tools that maximize economic efficiency through extended durability and reduced labor costs associated with grinding operations.
