48M671 - Replacement Bevel Gear and Pinion Set for Walter 6560 Grinder

Precision Engineering for Industrial Tools

The Walter Surface Technologies 48-M-671 Bevel Gear with Pinion is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the heavy-duty 6560 series angle grinders. In high-torque industrial applications, the transmission system of an angle grinder endures immense stress. The bevel gear and pinion set is responsible for translating the motor's high-speed rotation into the high-torque, right-angle motion required for grinding and cutting. Over time, even the most robust gears can experience wear, leading to increased clearance, noise, and eventual loss of drive.

This OEM set is manufactured to the exact tolerances required by Walter's engineering standards. Using non-OEM gears in high-performance tools like the 6560 can lead to poor meshing, increased heat generation, and premature failure of bearings or the motor itself. The 48-M-671 kit includes both the large bevel gear and the matching pinion shaft, ensuring that the tooth profile meshes perfectly from the moment of installation. This simultaneous replacement is essential for maintaining the smooth operation and longevity of the tool.

Constructed from high-grade hardened steel, these components are treated to withstand the thermal and mechanical shock loads typical of metal fabrication environments. Whether used in foundries, pipeline construction, or heavy fabrication shops, restoring your grinder with genuine Walter parts ensures safety and reliability. This kit allows maintenance teams to extend the service life of their capital equipment rather than replacing the entire tool.

Installation Note: Proper greasing and shimming (if applicable to the specific wear level of the housing) are recommended during installation to ensure optimal performance and heat dissipation.
