OVERVIEW

Long-Lasting Surface Preparation with Walter Technology

The Walter 13D302 3" Crimped Wire Cup Brush represents a significant advancement in surface cleaning and preparation technology. Designed for industrial environments where efficiency and tool longevity are paramount, this brush features Walter's signature safety supporting ring. This innovative mechanism tightly encircles the wire filaments, preventing them from flaring outwards prematurely during high-speed operation. By controlling the flare, the brush maintains a more aggressive cutting angle for longer periods and prevents wire fatigue that leads to breakage.

Fabricators and maintenance professionals appreciate the dual-stage life of this tool. Once the exposed wire wears down to the level of the supporting ring, the ring can be easily detached, revealing a fresh length of wire underneath. This effectively extends the usable life of the brush, reducing the frequency of replacements and lowering overall consumable costs. The crimped wire configuration is specifically engineered for flexibility, making it the ideal choice for light to medium duty cleaning applications on steel surfaces, such as removing rust, paint, scale, and corrosion without gouging the base material.

Compatibility is key with the 13D302, which features an M14 x 2.0 threaded nut. This specific thread size is designed for angle grinders that utilize the metric M14 spindle standard, ensuring a secure and safe fit. The brush is constructed using premium oil-hardened and tempered carbon steel wire, ensuring that each filament retains its stiffness and cutting ability even under thermal stress. Furthermore, every Walter cup brush is precision-balanced to run smoothly, minimizing vibration. This reduction in vibration not only protects the power tool's bearings but also significantly reduces operator fatigue during extended use.

Whether used for general shop cleanup, preparing surfaces for painting, or cleaning up after fabrication, the Walter 13D302 delivers consistent, high-quality results. Its robust construction and smart design features make it a staple in metalworking shops that demand reliability and safety from their abrasives.

FAQ

This brush features an M14 x 2.0 metric thread. Please verify your angle grinder spindle size before purchasing, as it is different from the standard 5/8"-11 thread.

The safety supporting ring prevents the wires from flaring out too quickly, which keeps the brushing action aggressive and safe. Once the wire wears down to the ring, the ring can be removed to expose more wire, extending the brush's life.

This brush uses carbon steel wire and is recommended for use on steel. Using it on stainless steel or aluminum can cause cross-contamination and rust issues (after-rust). For stainless or aluminum, look for a stainless steel (304/316) wire brush.

The maximum rated speed for this 3-inch cup brush is 12,000 RPM. Always ensure your grinder's speed does not exceed this rating.

Crimped wire is more flexible and less aggressive than knotted wire. It is ideal for light to medium cleaning, surface finishing, and paint removal where you want to avoid removing base material. Knotted wire is better for heavy-duty slag and scale removal.

Once the wires have worn down flush with the ring, the ring can typically be knocked off using a hammer and a punch or a similar tool to dislodge it from the cup base, exposing the remaining wire.

This is a 3-inch (75mm) diameter cup brush.

Walter balances their brushes to ensure smooth operation. An unbalanced brush causes vibration, which leads to operator fatigue, poor finish quality, and premature wear on the grinder's bearings.
