63406 - Pferd 5-Inch Pipeline Grinding Wheel A24R Type 27

Professional Grade Pipeline Grinding Solutions

The Pferd 63406 Pipeline Grinding Wheel is a specialized abrasive tool engineered to meet the rigorous demands of the pipeline construction and industrial fabrication sectors. Measuring 5 inches in diameter with a 1/8-inch thickness and a standard 7/8-inch arbor, this wheel is designed for use on angle grinders to perform critical tasks such as root pass grinding, weld seam preparation, and general stock removal on carbon steel and other ferrous metals.

Part of Pferd's renowned Pipeline series, this wheel utilizes a high-performance Aluminum Oxide (A-SG) grain structure paired with a hard 'R' grade bond. This combination is specifically formulated to provide aggressive material removal rates while maintaining exceptional edge stability. In pipeline applications, where the integrity of the root pass is paramount, the ability of the wheel to hold its shape allows operators to grind deep into the groove without premature wheel wear. The Type 27 depressed center configuration further enhances versatility, allowing the operator to switch between cutting and light grinding techniques without the need to change tools, thereby increasing operational efficiency.

Industrial professionals rely on Pferd abrasives for their consistency and safety. The 63406 model delivers a long service life, reducing the frequency of wheel changes and lowering overall consumable costs. Whether used in the field for pipe joining or in the shop for structural steel fabrication, this wheel provides the durability required for heavy-duty industrial environments. Its composition ensures cool grinding action to minimize thermal impact on the workpiece, preserving the metallurgical properties of the steel.

Key Technical Benefits:

• Optimized Grain: A-SG Aluminum Oxide for maximum bite on steel.
• Hard Bond: R-grade hardness prevents rapid edge breakdown.
• Versatile Geometry: 1/8" thickness allows for both notching and facing.
