48S226 - Walter Replacement Tapping Screw 4.2mm x 50mm

Genuine Walter Surface Technologies Replacement Hardware

Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO) professionals understand that the integrity of industrial power tools relies on every single component, down to the smallest fastener. The Walter 48S226 Tapping Screw St 4.2X50 is a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) replacement part designed specifically for Walter Surface Technologies equipment. When servicing high-performance grinders, sanders, or finishing tools, using non-standard hardware can lead to compromised housing integrity, stripped threads, or safety hazards due to vibration loosening.

This tapping screw features a precise 4.2mm diameter and a 50mm length, dimensions that are critical for the correct assembly of tool casings or internal components. The "St" designation indicates a steel construction, ensuring the tensile strength required to hold components securely under the high-torque and high-vibration conditions typical of metalworking environments. Unlike generic hardware store screws, this part is engineered to the exact hardness and thread pitch specifications required by Walter's engineering team.

Proper tool maintenance extends the lifecycle of your capital equipment. Whether you are replacing a worn carbon brush assembly, securing a gear housing, or reassembling a tool after a cord replacement, having the correct 48S226 screw ensures the job is done right the first time. This part is often utilized in the assembly of Walter's ergonomic handles or motor housings, where a secure fit is paramount for operator safety and tool balance.

Investing in genuine Walter parts minimizes downtime. A mismatched screw can damage the plastic or metal receiving threads of an expensive tool, turning a five-minute repair into a costly replacement. Keep your inventory stocked with essential spares like the 48S226 to ensure your fabrication shop or production line remains operational without interruption.
