48S178 - Walter M3x25 Replacement Burnished Machine Screw

Get Your Walter Tools Back in Action

When you are in the middle of a job, the last thing you want is a piece of equipment going down because of a lost or stripped screw. It sounds small, but we all know that one missing fastener can compromise the safety or function of a high-performance tool. The Walter 48S178 Burnished Screw M3X25 is the exact replacement part you need to get your Walter Surface Technologies equipment back up and running. Don't waste time digging through a coffee can of random bolts hoping to find a match; use the part designed specifically for the machine.

This isn't just any hardware store screw. It is a genuine OEM component from Walter, meaning it meets the specific tensile strength and dimensional tolerances required for their industrial tools. The M3 threading is precision-cut to ensure it seats perfectly without cross-threading or loosening under vibration. The 25mm length is critical for reaching the necessary depth in housing assemblies or internal components without protruding or bottoming out prematurely.

The burnished finish on this screw serves a dual purpose. First, it looks professional and matches the aesthetic of industrial tools. Second, and more importantly, the burnishing process (often a black oxide treatment) adds a layer of mild corrosion resistance and reduces friction during installation. This helps ensure that when you tighten it down, you get accurate torque application. Whether you are repairing a grinder, a magnetic drill, or a surface finishing tool, sticking with genuine parts like this M3x25 screw is the smart move for longevity and safety.

Maintenance is part of the game. Keeping a few of these specific spares on hand can save you hours of downtime later. If your parts diagram calls for part number 48S178, this is the guaranteed fit. Stop improvising with close-enoughs and fix it right the first time with Walter original parts.
