The Pferd 69947 Cut-Off Wheel represents the pinnacle of German engineering in abrasive technology, designed specifically for industrial professionals who demand precision and efficiency. This 4.5-inch wheel features an ultra-thin .040-inch thickness, which is critical for minimizing material loss during the cutting process. By removing less material, the wheel encounters less resistance, resulting in significantly faster cut times and reduced thermal load on both the workpiece and the power tool. This makes it an ideal choice for high-volume fabrication environments where cycle time and tool longevity are paramount.
Constructed with premium Aluminum Oxide grain, this wheel is formulated specifically for use on steel. The abrasive bond is engineered to break down at a controlled rate, constantly exposing fresh, sharp grain edges to the work surface. This self-sharpening action ensures consistent cutting performance from the first cut to the last, preventing the glazing that often plagues inferior abrasives. The Type 1 (flat) profile allows for deep, perpendicular cuts, making it excellent for sectioning bars, cutting sheet metal, or trimming structural steel components.
Safety and durability are core to the Pferd brand. The 69947 is reinforced to withstand the lateral forces and high RPMs of modern angle grinders, although it is strictly designed for cutting, not grinding. The standard 7/8-inch arbor ensures compatibility with the vast majority of 4-1/2" angle grinders on the market. For MRO departments and fabrication shops looking to optimize their consumable usage, this Pferd cut-off wheel offers an excellent balance of speed, life, and cost-effectiveness.
