Pferd 47801656 Mounted Flap Wheel 80 Grit Zirconia Alumina

Product Description

The PFERD 47801656 is a mounted flap wheel designed for use with straight grinders in metalworking and fabrication applications. The wheel measures 1 inch in diameter with a 1-inch face width and mounts via a 1/4-inch shank with a shank length of 1.5 inches. Constructed with a zirconia alumina abrasive on a cloth backing, it delivers consistent stock removal and blending performance at an 80 grit medium grade. Maximum rated speed is 25,000 RPM. Licensed tradespeople and fabricators rely on this style of wheel for contour finishing and surface prep on a wide range of metals.

This mounted flap wheel is suited for use on aluminum, stainless steel, carbon steel, cast steel, brass, bronze, copper, titanium, cobalt-based alloys, nickel base alloys, nodular and annealed cast iron, non-ferrous metals, and heat treatable steels. It is intended for use with straight die grinders and similar shank-driven rotary tools. The 80-grit medium grade makes it appropriate for intermediate stock removal, weld blending, and surface conditioning before final finishing steps.

Key Features

• Zirconia alumina abrasive on cloth backing for durability and consistent cut rate
• 80 grit medium grade — suitable for weld blending, deburring, and surface prep
• 1/4-inch shank diameter with 1.5-inch shank length fits standard straight grinder collets
• 25,000 RPM maximum rated speed
• 1-inch diameter by 1-inch face width — compact profile for access to tight workpiece areas
• Compatible with a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals including titanium and nickel base alloys

Compatibility

Designed for use with straight grinders accepting a 1/4-inch shank. Rated for material applications including aluminum, annealed cast iron, brass, bronze, cast steel, cobalt-based alloys, copper, heat treatable steel, nickel base alloys, nodular cast iron, non-ferrous metals, stainless steel, steel, and titanium.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a metalworking fabricator or machinist using a straight die grinder with a compatible 1/4-inch collet. Before mounting, confirm the grinder is rated at or above the 25,000 RPM maximum speed of the wheel — never exceed the wheel's rated RPM. Disconnect power to the grinder before inserting or removing the shank. Inspect the wheel for damage before each use and discard if the flaps are worn unevenly or the shank shows deformation.
