11L001 - Walter Flush Mandrel for 2-Inch Wheels - 1/4 Shank

Precision Mounting for Small Diameter Abrasives

The Walter Surface Technologies 11L001 Flush Mandrel is a specialized accessory designed to maximize the utility of your die grinder operations. Engineered with a standard 1/4-inch shank, this mandrel seamlessly integrates with most pneumatic and electric die grinders found in industrial environments. Its primary function is to securely mount 2-inch abrasive wheels that utilize a 5/16-inch arbor hole, providing a stable and balanced platform for high-speed grinding and finishing tasks.

What sets this mandrel apart is its flush mounting design. In standard mandrel assemblies, the retaining nut or screw often protrudes above the surface of the abrasive wheel. This protrusion limits the operator's ability to work in tight spaces, such as corners or fillets, as the hardware can strike the workpiece, causing damage or preventing the abrasive from reaching the apex of the joint. The 11L001 utilizes a countersunk or flush-sitting screw mechanism that eliminates this obstruction. This feature is critical for precision metal fabrication where surface integrity in hard-to-reach areas is paramount.

Constructed from high-grade steel, the mandrel is built to withstand the torque and vibration associated with industrial grinding. It ensures that the abrasive wheel remains concentric during rotation, reducing run-out and vibration which can lead to premature tool wear and operator fatigue. Whether used with flap wheels, conditioning discs, or small grinding wheels, the Walter 11L001 ensures a safe, secure, and efficient connection between your power tool and the abrasive media.
