69955 - Pferd 7-Inch Steel Cut-Off Wheel .040 Type 1

Precision Cutting for Steel Applications

The Pferd 69955 Cut-Off Wheel is a premium abrasive tool engineered for the professional metalworker who demands efficiency and precision. Measuring 7 inches in diameter with a standard 7/8-inch arbor, this wheel is compatible with a wide range of industrial angle grinders. The defining feature of this wheel is its ultra-thin .040-inch profile, which places it in the high-performance category for cutting wheels. A thinner wheel removes less material (kerf), which translates directly into faster cuts and significantly less heat generation. This is particularly critical when working with structural steel or sheet metal where thermal distortion must be minimized.

Constructed with high-quality aluminum oxide grain, the Pferd 69955 is optimized specifically for steel applications. The grain structure fractures cleanly to self-sharpen, ensuring that the cutting action remains aggressive throughout the life of the wheel. As a Type 1 (flat) wheel, it is designed for perpendicular cutting, allowing for maximum depth and stability during operation. Whether you are slicing through solid stock, tubing, or plate, this wheel delivers consistent performance that reduces operator fatigue and machine load.

Pferd is renowned for manufacturing abrasives that prioritize safety and longevity. This wheel is bonded to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty use while maintaining structural integrity. By choosing the Pferd 69955, you are investing in a consumable that reduces downtime associated with frequent wheel changes, ultimately lowering your total cost of operation. It is an essential addition to any fabrication shop's inventory for tasks requiring speed, accuracy, and a clean finish on steel components.
