Abrasives and Brushes now Available with X-LOCK Quick-Change System



A variety of PFERD products are now available with the Bosch X-LOCK quick-change system.

PFERD has announced that the BOSCH X-LOCK quick-change system for angle grinders is now available for a wide variety of PFERD cut-off wheels, flap discs, grinding wheels and brushes. This time and labor saving system is designed to let users change applicable X-LOCK products quickly and comfortably.

Instead of a round center hole, the X-LOCK system features an X-shaped contour that allows the product to be fixed on the angle grinder in a quick and form-fitting manner. "For example, when using a flap disc, users know that the discs are fixed securely when they audibly click into place," said a company spokesperson. "This ensures that different discs can be mounted securely and easily in the shortest possible time. The unique X-LOCK system meets the highest quality and safety standards and is proven to withstand tough and challenging operating conditions."

The X-LOCK system includes a variety of knot wheel brushes such as the standard twist, full cable twist and stringer bead twist that can be used for different applications and, according to the company, exhibit a good balance between aggressiveness and flexibility. The standard twist brushes are designed for heavy-duty cleaning and surface conditioning. The full cable twist brush is for tough brushing applications and the stringer bead twist brushes provide the most aggressive brushing action.

Cut-off wheels with X-LOCK include PSF STEELOX, a fast cutting cut-off wheel for steel and stainless steel (INOX) with a long service life and SG STEELOX cut-off wheels.

For flap discs with X-LOCK, PFERD offers a number of options, including Z PSF STEELOX and Z PSF EXTRA STEELOX zirconia alumina flap and the POLIFAN Z SG POWER flap disc that features an aggressive stock removal rate.

POLIFAN-STRONG STEEL flap discs are available with X-LOCK. "They achieve an unsurpassed stock removal rate and a service life that far exceeds that of conventional flap discs," said the spokesperson. "As is the POLIFAN-CURVE flap disc that delivers optimum grinding of fillet weld geometry and the POLIFAN Z SGP CURVE STEELOX for stock removal on steel and stainless steel (INOX)."

PFERD also offers grinding wheels with the X-LOCK quick-change system, including the PSF STEEL and the SG STEEL grinding wheels. In addition, PFERD cup brushes for low flex, high impact grinding are also available with the new X-LOCK quick-change system.
