The Walter 48-R 296 Pneumatic Drum is a specialized accessory designed for the Line-Mate III linear finishing system. Engineered to provide superior adaptability during surface conditioning tasks, this drum features a durable rubber construction that can be inflated or deflated to achieve the desired level of hardness. By adjusting the air pressure, operators can customize the contact wheel's compliance, making it an ideal solution for finishing curved surfaces, rounded profiles, and irregular shapes where a rigid drum might cause flat spots or gouging.
Measuring 3-1/2 inches in diameter and 4 inches in width, this drum is sized to accept a wide range of Walter abrasive belts, including Topcut, Blendex, and felt polishing belts. The 5/8"-11 threaded arbor ensures a secure and direct connection to the Line-Mate spindle, facilitating quick changeovers and stable operation at speeds up to 3,800 RPM. Whether you are graining stainless steel tanks or blending welds on tubular structures, the pneumatic cushion helps distribute pressure evenly across the abrasive surface.
This drum is an essential component for professionals requiring high-quality linear finishes. Its ability to absorb vibration and conform to the workpiece reduces operator fatigue and eliminates chatter marks, resulting in a consistent, professional-grade aesthetic. The unit comes equipped with a standard valve for easy inflation using a manual pump.
