48A035 - Walter COOLCUT XX 4-1/2 Inch Resin Fiber Disc 36 Grit

High-Performance Material Removal with Walter COOLCUT XX

The Walter 48A035 COOLCUT™ XX Sanding Disc represents the pinnacle of resin fiber disc technology, designed specifically for industrial environments where material removal rate (MRR) and cycle time are critical performance metrics. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, this 4-1/2 inch disc utilizes a proprietary blend of premium abrasive grains that fracture dynamically to maintain a sharp cutting edge throughout the lifespan of the product. With a coarse 36 grit rating, this disc is optimized for heavy stock removal applications, including weld leveling, beveling, and aggressive surface preparation on ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

Thermal management is a key challenge in high-speed grinding, particularly when working with heat-sensitive alloys like stainless steel. The COOLCUT XX formulation incorporates active grinding agents that significantly reduce friction at the point of contact. This "cool cutting" capability minimizes the heat affected zone (HAZ), thereby reducing the risk of thermal discoloration (blueing) and warping. For fabrication shops adhering to strict quality control standards regarding surface integrity, the 48A035 offers a reliable solution that balances aggression with thermal stability.

Durability is central to the value proposition of the COOLCUT XX series. The reinforced fiber backing provides the necessary rigidity to withstand high contact pressures without tearing or premature edge degradation. When paired with Walter’s Turbo™ or standard backing pads, the disc maintains optimal rigidity for flat grinding while allowing enough flexibility to contour slightly to the workpiece. Rated for a maximum speed of 13,300 RPM, this abrasive tool is compatible with standard industrial angle grinders, making it a versatile addition to any MRO or fabrication inventory. By reducing the frequency of disc changes and accelerating the grinding process, the 48A035 directly contributes to lower operational costs and increased throughput.

In summary, the Walter 48A035 is not merely a consumable; it is a productivity tool engineered for professionals who demand efficiency. Whether processing structural steel, carbon steel, or stainless steel, this sanding disc delivers consistent, aggressive performance that reduces operator fatigue and enhances overall workflow efficiency.
