STEELOX PFERD CC Grind Abrasive Disc

PFERD STEELOX CC Grind Abrasive Disc: performance and versatility for steel and stainless steel

The PFERD STEELOX CC Grind abrasive disc is tailored for demanding work on steel and stainless steel. Clean results, efficient material removal: it leaves nothing to chance.

Its dual-use design eliminates the need to change discs between different materials. One tool, two metals covered.

Manufactured by PFERD, a world leader in industrial abrasives, the CC Grind offers a longer service life than conventional discs.

What is the PFERD STEELOX CC Grind abrasive disc?

The PFERD STEELOX CC Grind abrasive disc is a grinding disc designed to work on steel and stainless steel with maximum efficiency and without metal contamination.

Manufactured by PFERD, a renowned German specialist in abrasive tools, it belongs to the CC Grind range, a line designed to combine cutting aggression, long service life, and low contact pressure.

Its composition is free of iron, sulfur, and chlorine. The result: no risk of corrosion on stainless steel parts after grinding.

CC Grind Robust vs. CC Grind View SGP: two complementary versions

The range comes in two versions with distinct profiles, adapted to different usage contexts.

• CC Grind Robust: designed for intensive grinding on steel and stainless steel. Dense abrasive structure, high material removal rate, ideal for demanding roughing work.
• CC Grind View SGP: its design incorporates viewing windows that allow for monitoring the work area in real time. Perfect for precision operations where visual control is essential.

Feature	CC Grind Robust	CC Grind View SGP	Standard PFERD PS-FORTE disc
Main use	Intensive steel / stainless steel grinding	Precision grinding with visibility	General steel grinding
Work area visibility	No	Yes (SGP windows)	No
Free of iron/sulfur/chlorine	Yes	Yes	No
Material removal rate	Very high	High	Medium
Stainless steel compatible	Yes	Yes	Not recommended

At Dagobert Industrie, we offer both versions to meet the needs of both intensive production and tasks requiring rigor and precision.

Technical specifications and abrasive composition of the CC Grind STEELOX

The PFERD STEELOX CC Grind abrasive disc is designed for grinding steel and stainless steel. Its abrasive composition relies on semi-precious corundum grains, chosen for their hardness and heat resistance.

The high-density synthetic binder keeps the grains active for longer. Result: less premature wear, a clean and consistent cut throughout the life of the disc.

The STEELOX formulation is free of iron, sulfur, and chlorine. These three elements are prohibited for stainless steel as they cause corrosion and contamination. This disc complies with EN 12413 standards and meets the metallurgical industry's standards.

It is compatible with standard angle grinders with a maximum peripheral speed of 80 m/s. The common diameter is 125 mm with a 22.23 mm bore, suitable for professional portable grinders.

Product	Abrasive grain	Compatible materials	Free of Fe/S/Cl	Main use
PFERD CC Grind STEELOX	Semi-precious corundum	Steel, Stainless steel	✓	Versatile steel/stainless steel grinding
PFERD CC Grind SOLID	Ceramic	Steel, Stainless steel, Titanium	✓	Aggressive material removal
Norton Vulcan	Alumina corundum	Steel only	✗	Standard steel grinding
Klingspor HF 100	Brown corundum	Steel	✗	Standard steel grinding

The CC Grind STEELOX stands out for its dual steel/stainless compatibility without risk of contamination, whereas most competing discs only cover one type of metal.

Areas of application: steel, stainless steel, and ferrous metals

The PFERD STEELOX CC Grind abrasive disc is designed to work on two demanding families of materials: ordinary steel and stainless steel. It thus covers almost all ferrous metals encountered in workshops, boilermaking, or on construction sites.

Its abrasive composition is free of iron, sulfur, and chlorine. Concretely, this prevents any contamination of the stainless steel surface and prevents corrosion after grinding. A non-negotiable point for parts intended for the food, medical, or shipbuilding industries.

Typical applications:

• Deburring steel parts after cutting or welding
• Grinding weld seams on stainless steel
• Surfacing and surface preparation before treatment
• Roughing of profiles, sheets, and black steel tubes

This disc fits standard angle grinders equipped with an M14 spindle. It is compatible with 115 mm, 125 mm, and 230 mm grinders depending on the chosen diameter.

You must adhere to the maximum peripheral speed indicated on the disc. PFERD certifies its discs according to the EN 12413 standard, ensuring mechanical integrity at high speeds.

A few best practices:

• Recommended angle of attack: 30° to 35° relative to the surface
• Moderate pressure: let the grain work without forcing
• Never use a damaged or cracked disc
• Wear appropriate PPE: glasses, gloves, hearing protection

Comparative table: PFERD CC Grind STEELOX vs. other abrasive discs on the market

The abrasive disc market is dense. To help you choose, here is how the PFERD CC Grind STEELOX positions itself against its main competitors.

Product	Manufacturer	Compatible materials	Abrasive grain	Sulfur/chlorine content	Main use
CC Grind STEELOX	PFERD	Steel, stainless steel	Zirconia alumina	< 0.1 % (none)	Universal steel/stainless grinding
Cubitron II 987C	3M	Steel, stainless steel	Triangular ceramic	< 0.1 %	Fast material removal
Klingspor HF 100	Klingspor	Steel primarily	Semi-precious corundum	Variable per ref.	Standard steel grinding
Norton Vulcan Inox	Norton	Stainless steel, steel	Zirconia alumina	< 0.1 %	Dedicated stainless grinding
Tyrolit Premium Inox	Tyrolit	Stainless steel	Special alumina	< 0.1 %	Stainless finishing

The CC Grind STEELOX stands out for its dual steel and stainless steel compatibility in a single disc. No need to juggle two references on the job site.

Compared to the 3M Cubitron II, the STEELOX offers a good compromise between service life and aggression, often with more controlled operating costs for standard jobs.

Unlike discs dedicated solely to stainless steel (Norton Vulcan Inox, Tyrolit Premium), the STEELOX is also suitable for standard steel. This is the key asset for workshops that work with both materials daily.

Benefits of the SGP STEELOX grain compared to conventional abrasives

The SGP (Special Grain Performance) grain developed by PFERD is not a conventional alumina grain. Its crystalline structure fractures in a controlled manner during abrasion, constantly exposing new sharp edges.

Concrete result: the disc remains aggressive for longer. Where a standard corundum grain dulls and starts to skid, the SGP keeps cutting.

On steel and stainless steel, this translates into faster material removal and less heat buildup. Stainless steel is particularly sensitive to overheating, the SGP limits this risk.

The STEELOX is guaranteed free of iron, sulfur, and chlorine (content < 0.1%). These three elements can contaminate stainless steel and trigger corrosion. A non-certified conventional abrasive does not provide this guarantee.
