The Walter 12E545 Bench Grinding Wheel is a high-performance abrasive solution designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial workshops and maintenance facilities. Measuring 8 inches in diameter with a 1-inch thickness, this Type 1 straight wheel is engineered for stability, durability, and consistent cutting action. Whether you are reshaping metal stock, deburring machined parts, or sharpening workshop tools, this wheel delivers the reliability professionals expect from the Walter brand.
One of the standout features of this product is its universal compatibility. While the wheel features a standard 1-inch arbor, it comes complete with a set of nested reducer bushings. These high-quality bushings allow the wheel to be securely mounted on shafts measuring 3/4", 5/8", and 1/2", ensuring it fits virtually any bench or pedestal grinder in your shop. This eliminates the frustration of sourcing separate adapters and ensures a safe, balanced fit right out of the box.
Constructed with a medium 46 grit abrasive, this wheel strikes an optimal balance between aggressive stock removal and surface finish quality. It is particularly effective on steel and carbide, making it a versatile addition to any tool crib. The vitrified bond structure ensures the wheel holds its shape well over time, reducing the frequency of dressing required and extending the overall service life of the abrasive. For general-purpose grinding tasks where precision and longevity are paramount, the Walter 12E545 is an excellent choice.
Safety and performance go hand in hand with Walter Surface Technologies. This wheel is balanced to minimize vibration, which not only improves the quality of the grind but also reduces wear on your grinder's bearings and reduces operator fatigue. When installed correctly with the appropriate guards and safety gear, this bench grinding wheel becomes an indispensable asset for metalworking professionals looking to maintain their tools and finish their workpieces with efficiency.
