10A988 - Walter 1-Inch to 7/8-Inch Arbor Adapter Bushing

Secure and Precise Wheel Mounting

The Walter 1 To 7/8 Reducer Bushing (SKU: 10A988) is an essential accessory for metalworkers and fabricators who utilize a variety of abrasive wheels. In the industrial environment, it is common to encounter grinding wheels, cutting discs, or flap wheels with a 1-inch arbor hole, while the angle grinder or power tool at hand features a standard 7/8-inch spindle. This reducer bushing bridges that gap, allowing you to safely and effectively mount larger-arbor accessories onto your existing tools without the need for specialized equipment.

Safety is paramount when operating high-speed rotational tools. A loose-fitting wheel can cause severe vibration, poor finish quality, and dangerous operating conditions. This Walter reducer bushing is engineered to fit snugly into the 1-inch opening of your abrasive wheel, reducing the diameter to a precise 7/8 inch. This ensures that the wheel remains perfectly centered on the spindle, maintaining balance and concentricity throughout the grinding or cutting process. By eliminating play between the wheel and the shaft, you significantly reduce the risk of wheel chatter and potential accidents.

Manufactured by Walter Surface Technologies, a leader in surface treatment solutions, this bushing is designed for durability and ease of use. It is a simple yet critical component for any workshop that stocks various sizes of abrasives. Whether you are adapting a bench grinder wheel or a portable angle grinder disc, this bushing provides the secure fit required for professional results. It is lightweight, easy to insert, and reusable, making it a staple item for tool cribs and maintenance departments.

Don't let mismatched equipment sizes slow down your production. With the Walter 10-A-988 reducer bushing, you can maximize the versatility of your abrasive inventory, ensuring that the right wheel can always be used on the right tool, regardless of the original arbor size.
