Pferd 47801651 Mounted Flap Wheel 60 Grit Aluminum Oxide

Product Description

The PFERD 47801651 is a mounted flap wheel designed for surface finishing, blending, and deburring on a wide range of metals. It measures 2.5 inches in diameter with a 1-inch face width and uses a 0.25-inch diameter shank for secure mounting in a straight grinder. The abrasive is aluminum oxide on a cloth backing, rated at 60 grit for medium material removal. Maximum operating speed is 23,000 RPM. This type of tooling is installed and operated by machinists, fabricators, and metalworking technicians performing grinding, blending, and finishing operations.

The 47801651 is suited for work on a broad spectrum of materials including aluminum, stainless steel, steel, cast steel, heat treatable steel, cobalt-based alloys, nickel base alloys, titanium, copper, brass, bronze, annealed cast iron, nodular cast iron, and non-ferrous metals. It is used with a straight grinder in fabrication shops, welding operations, aerospace component finishing, and general metalworking environments where controlled surface conditioning is required.

Installation Notes

Install the shank into the straight grinder collet and tighten securely before operation. Always verify the grinder speed rating does not exceed the 23,000 RPM maximum marked on this wheel. Wear appropriate eye protection and gloves during mounting and operation. Inspect the flap wheel for damage before each use and discard any wheel showing torn abrasive cloth or shank deformation.
