OVERVIEW

Restore Optimal Performance with Genuine Walter Parts

The Walter 48H495 Motor Housing is a critical replacement component designed specifically for compatible Walter Surface Technologies power tools. In the demanding environments of industrial metalworking and fabrication, power tools are subjected to extreme conditions, including heat, vibration, and physical impact. Over time, the external housing of a tool can become compromised, leading to cracks or structural failures that jeopardize both the functionality of the machine and the safety of the operator. This OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) motor housing is engineered to exact specifications, ensuring that your Walter tool continues to operate at the peak performance levels for which it was designed.

Constructed from high-grade, impact-resistant composite materials, the 48H495 housing provides a robust shield for the sensitive internal components of the motor, such as the armature, field coil, and brushes. Beyond simple physical protection, the housing plays a vital role in the tool's thermal management system. Walter tools are renowned for their endurance, and this is partly due to sophisticated airflow designs that dissipate heat effectively. Using a genuine replacement housing ensures that these ventilation channels are perfectly aligned, preventing overheating and extending the lifespan of the motor. Furthermore, the housing serves as the primary interface between the user and the machine; its ergonomic contours are essential for reducing operator fatigue during extended use.

Safety is paramount in any industrial setting. A compromised motor housing can expose live electrical parts or fail to contain internal fragments in the rare event of a component failure. By installing the Walter 48H495, you restore the double-insulation properties of the tool and ensure compliance with safety standards. This part is not merely a cosmetic fix; it is a functional necessity for maintaining the integrity of your equipment. Whether you are a maintenance technician responsible for a fleet of tools or a fabricator relying on a single grinder, choosing genuine Walter parts is the only way to guarantee fit, form, and function.

Key Technical Benefits

  • Precision Fitment: Eliminates gaps and misalignment often found with aftermarket parts.

FAQ

The 48H495 is a specific part number for certain Walter Surface Technologies power tools. We recommend checking the exploded parts diagram or the owner's manual of your specific tool model to confirm the part number matches before ordering.

Typically, the 48H495 part number refers to the motor housing shell itself. Screws, brushes, and internal motor components are usually sold separately unless otherwise specified. You may need to reuse existing hardware or order a hardware kit.

Yes, this is a genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) replacement part from Walter Surface Technologies, ensuring the highest quality and exact fitment for your equipment.

We strongly advise against gluing cracked motor housings. Structural integrity is crucial for safety and vibration control. A glued housing may fail under load or vibration, posing a safety risk. Replacement is the only safe option.

The housing is manufactured from a high-impact, industrial-grade composite polymer designed to provide electrical insulation, thermal resistance, and durability against mechanical stress.

Using genuine OEM parts like the 48H495 generally preserves your tool's integrity. However, if the tool is still under warranty, we recommend having repairs performed by an authorized service center to avoid any potential warranty issues.

A cracked housing compromises the tool's double insulation, potentially exposing the operator to electrical shock. It also allows abrasive dust to enter the motor, which can cause short circuits and premature motor failure.

Installation difficulty depends on the specific tool model. Generally, it involves removing the screws holding the case halves together and transferring the internal components. If you are comfortable with basic tool repair, it is straightforward; otherwise, consult a professional.
