OVERVIEW

Premium Performance for Industrial Fabrication

The PFERD 5" x .040" x 7/8" SGP STEELOX Cut-Off Wheel (SKU: 69846) is a top-tier abrasive solution designed for the most demanding industrial applications. Part of PFERD's Special Line SGP, this tool is engineered for specific tasks that require ultimate economic efficiency and superior performance. It is specifically formulated to handle both carbon steel and stainless steel (INOX) with equal proficiency, making it a versatile asset in any fabrication shop or manufacturing facility.

At the core of this wheel's performance is its ultra-thin .040-inch profile. This reduced thickness allows for significantly faster cutting speeds compared to standard wheels, resulting in lower thermal loads on the workpiece. For stainless steel applications, this is critical as it minimizes heat discoloration and reduces the risk of corrosion, thereby eliminating or reducing the need for time-consuming post-weld cleaning or finishing. The high-performance aluminum oxide grain is bonded with a wear-resistant system that ensures excellent service life, even when cutting thin sheet metal and hollow profiles.

PFERD's commitment to safety and quality is evident in the construction of the SGP STEELOX. Manufactured in state-of-the-art facilities, likely in Germany, these wheels undergo intensive research and development to maximize user comfort and productivity. The wheel provides a smooth cutting action with minimal vibration and burr formation. This precision reduces operator fatigue and ensures that cuts are clean and accurate right from the start. Whether you are working on structural steel components or delicate stainless facings, this Type 1 flat wheel delivers the consistency and reliability required for professional results.

Key Technical Benefits:

  • Versatile Bonding: Optimized for both ferrous metals and stainless steel without cross-contamination issues affecting performance.
  • Thermal Management: Thin kerf reduces friction and heat buildup, protecting sensitive alloys.
  • Economic Efficiency: Long service life reduces the frequency of wheel changes, lowering overall operational costs.

FAQ

This wheel is designed for universal use on both Steel and Stainless Steel (INOX).

The wheel has a thickness of .040 inches, which is considered an ultra-thin cut-off wheel for fast, precise cuts.

This is a Type 1 wheel, meaning it is flat. It is designed for cutting only, not grinding.

No, this is a thin cut-off wheel. Using it for grinding is dangerous and can cause the wheel to shatter. Only use the edge for cutting.

SGP stands for PFERD's Special Line, which indicates products engineered for specific tasks offering key advantages like higher performance and economic efficiency over conventional products.

This wheel features a standard 7/8" arbor hole, fitting most standard 4-1/2" and 5" angle grinders.

The .040" thin profile allows for very fast cutting with minimal friction, which significantly reduces heat buildup and thermal discoloration compared to thicker wheels.

Always wear proper PPE, including safety glasses, a face shield, gloves, and hearing protection. Ensure the grinder guard is in place.
