48K114 - Walter Line-Mate III Replacement Locking Bolt

Secure Your Linear Finishing System

The Walter Locking Bolt (48-K-114) is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the Walter Line-Mate III linear finishing system. In the demanding environment of industrial metal finishing, the integrity of your equipment is paramount. This locking bolt serves as the primary fastener that secures abrasive drums, flap wheels, and pneumatic drums to the tool's drive spindle. Over time, frequent tool changes and high-torque applications can lead to thread wear or head deformation on the original bolt. Replacing it with this genuine OEM part ensures that your expensive abrasive consumables remain firmly in place, preventing slippage that could damage the workpiece or the tool itself.

Manufactured from high-grade steel, this bolt is engineered to withstand the centrifugal forces generated during high-RPM operation. It features precise threading that matches the Line-Mate III arbor perfectly, ensuring a tight fit without cross-threading. For maintenance professionals and tool crib managers, keeping a spare 48-K-114 on hand is a proactive measure to eliminate downtime. When a bolt is lost or stripped during a shift, production on critical finishing tasks—such as stainless steel graining—stops. This simple yet essential part restores your tool to full functionality immediately.

Using non-standard hardware on precision finishing tools can lead to imbalance, excessive vibration, and poor finish consistency. The Walter 48-K-114 is balanced and sized to sit flush within the drum assembly, ensuring that the tool remains ergonomic and safe for the operator. Whether you are refurbishing an older Line-Mate unit or simply performing routine maintenance, this locking bolt is the exact specification required for optimal performance.
