62452 - Pferd 4-1/2 Inch 24 Grit Aluminum Oxide Fiber Disc

Versatile Industrial Grinding Solution

The Pferd 62452 Fiber Disc is a premium abrasive tool designed for general-purpose grinding applications across a wide range of industries. Engineered with high-quality Aluminum Oxide (A) grain, this 4-1/2 inch disc delivers consistent performance and durability. It is specifically formulated to handle the demands of industrial fabrication, maintenance operations, and professional trades, offering a reliable solution for stock removal and surface preparation.

This specific disc features a coarse 24 grit, making it an excellent choice for aggressive material removal. Whether you are leveling welds, removing heavy rust, or shaping metal components, the large grain size ensures rapid progress. The 7/8-inch arbor hole is the industry standard, ensuring compatibility with most angle grinders equipped with the appropriate backing pad. Pferd’s manufacturing process ensures that the grain adheres strongly to the fiber backing, reducing shedding and extending the working life of the disc.

Optimized for Diverse Materials

One of the key advantages of the Pferd Aluminum Oxide A series is its versatility. It is suitable for use on a variety of materials, including:

• Carbon steel
• Non-ferrous metals (aluminum, copper, brass)
• Cast iron
• Wood and plastics

This universality allows workshops to consolidate their abrasive inventory, using a single disc type for multiple substrates without compromising on performance. The fiber backing provides a sturdy foundation for the abrasive grain, allowing for high contact pressure which is essential for effective grinding with coarse grits.

Industrial Application & Safety

In heavy industrial settings, efficiency is paramount. The Pferd 62452 minimizes downtime by maintaining its cutting ability longer than standard economy discs. It is ideal for surface grinding, working on weld seams, and chamfering edges. Operators should always ensure they are using a matching backing pad that supports the entire surface of the disc to prevent tearing and ensure safety. Proper personal protective equipment (PPE), including eye and face protection, is mandatory when operating high-speed grinding equipment.
