10A986 - Walter 1-Inch to 5/8-Inch Arbor Adapter Bushing

Precision Arbor Adaptation for Abrasive Wheels

The Walter 10A986 Reducer Bushing is an essential accessory designed to bridge the gap between abrasive wheel arbor sizes and machine spindle dimensions. Specifically engineered to reduce a 1-inch arbor hole to fit a 5/8-inch shaft, this bushing enables the safe and effective use of larger-arbor wheels on equipment with smaller spindles, such as stationary cut-off machines and bench grinders.

Manufactured by Walter Surface Technologies, a leader in industrial abrasive solutions, this bushing is crafted to high tolerances to ensure perfect concentricity. A loose or ill-fitting wheel can cause dangerous vibrations, poor cut quality, and premature bearing wear. The 10A986 eliminates these risks by providing a snug, secure interface between the wheel and the machine. Whether you are adapting a new stock of wheels or utilizing existing inventory on different machines, this reducer bushing ensures that your operations continue smoothly without compromising safety or performance.

This component is particularly useful in MRO environments where machine versatility is key. It allows for greater flexibility in procurement, as users are not restricted to purchasing wheels with a specific arbor size if a simple adapter can expand compatibility. Easy to install, the bushing simply presses into the center hole of the abrasive wheel before mounting.
