Pferd aluminium oxide fan grinder, grit 180

The Pferd 30 x 5mm fan grinder is a shank-mounted flap wheel with a 30mm head diameter and a 5mm head width. Its flaps are aluminium oxide coated abrasive arranged radially around the shank in a fan-type structure.

The range has 12 options: grits 60, 80, 120, 150, 180, 240 and 320 on 3 and 6mm shanks. Optimum speed is 12,000rpm and maximum speed is 25,400rpm. The aluminium oxide version is suited to general applications from coarse to fine grinding. The flaps are highly flexible, so the tool adjusts to the contour, and the flat, moulded-core design lets you work face-down close to edges and in corners.

Key specifications
