48A005 - Walter Line-Mate III Replacement Cover / Guard

Genuine Replacement Cover for Walter Line-Mate III

The Walter 48A005 Cover is a critical replacement component designed exclusively for the Line-Mate III linear finishing system. As a genuine OEM part from Walter Surface Technologies, this cover ensures that your industrial finishing tool maintains its original safety standards and operational efficiency. In high-demand industrial environments, the integrity of power tool housings and guards is paramount not only for the longevity of the machine but also for the safety of the operator. Using non-compliant or damaged guards can lead to significant safety hazards and reduced tool performance.

Restoring Tool Integrity and Performance

Over time, protective covers can become cracked, worn, or damaged due to the rigorous nature of metal finishing work, accidental drops, or heavy impact. A compromised cover can lead to unsafe working conditions and may allow contaminants to enter the motor housing, potentially shortening the lifespan of the tool. Replacing a damaged unit with the 48A005 restores the tool's structural integrity, ensuring it continues to perform at the high level expected of Walter equipment. It effectively seals the internal drive mechanisms from the ingress of heavy dust, metal particles, and abrasive debris generated during grinding, sanding, and polishing tasks.

Compatibility and Installation

This part is specifically engineered for the Line-Mate III (Model 30-A 268). Because it is a direct replacement, installation is straightforward, aligning perfectly with existing mounting points on the tool body. Using genuine Walter parts guarantees that there are no fitment issues, vibration, or loose components that could arise from using generic alternatives. Maintenance teams can quickly swap out the old cover and return the tool to service with minimal downtime, ensuring that production schedules are maintained.

About the Line-Mate III System

The Line-Mate III is a versatile tool used extensively for applying linear finishes to metal surfaces, particularly stainless steel. It is a staple in industries requiring food-grade finishes, architectural metalwork, and pharmaceutical equipment manufacturing. Keeping this tool in top repair with parts like the 48A005 cover ensures consistent finish quality and operator safety across all applications. By maintaining the proper guarding, you ensure that the airflow and cooling dynamics of the tool remain as designed, preventing overheating during prolonged use.
