63173 - Pferd 5-Inch Type 27 Cut-Off Wheel .045 SG-ELASTIC INOX

Premium Performance for Industrial Fabrication

The Pferd 63173 is a high-performance 5-inch cut-off wheel from the renowned SG-ELASTIC line, engineered to meet the rigorous demands of professional metalworking. Featuring a Type 27 depressed center design, this wheel offers enhanced rigidity and the ability to perform flush cuts in tight spaces where flat Type 1 wheels may be restricted. With a thickness of .045 inches, it strikes an optimal balance between structural stability and rapid material removal, ensuring precise cuts with minimal burr formation.

Manufactured with premium Aluminum Oxide grain and a specialized bond, this wheel is designated as Hardness Grade R. This specification ensures a long service life while maintaining aggressive cutting action. Crucially for fabrication involving high-grade alloys, the wheel is produced without the addition of ferrous, chlorinated, or sulfurous fillers (Fe, S, Cl < 0.1%). This "INOX" rating guarantees that the abrasive will not introduce contaminants that could lead to corrosion or pitting on stainless steel surfaces, making it an ideal choice for nuclear, food grade, and chemical processing equipment fabrication.

The SG-ELASTIC series is designed to reduce heat buildup during operation, preserving the metallurgical integrity of the workpiece. This wheel is compatible with standard 5-inch angle grinders featuring a 7/8-inch arbor and is rated for a maximum speed of 12,200 RPM. Whether cutting sheet metal, profiles, or solid materials, the Pferd 63173 delivers consistent, professional results.
