OVERVIEW

Premium Stainless Steel Surface Preparation

The Walter 13J614 6" x 5/8" Wire Wheel Brush is a top-tier abrasive tool designed specifically for professionals working with stainless steel. In the world of industrial fabrication, cross-contamination is a critical concern; using a standard carbon steel brush on stainless steel can embed iron particles, leading to "after-rust" and compromised corrosion resistance. This Walter brush addresses that challenge with high-grade stainless steel wires, ensuring your workpieces remain pure and compliant with strict industry standards.

Engineered for Balance and Safety

One of the defining characteristics of Walter surface technologies is their commitment to tool balance. This wire wheel is meticulously crafted and balanced to run smoothly even at high RPMs. Poorly balanced brushes can cause excessive vibration, which not only fatigues the operator but can also damage the bearings of the power tool over time. By choosing the 13J614, you are investing in a tool that promotes safer, more comfortable operation while extending the lifespan of your grinding equipment.

Aggressive Cleaning Power

The knotted wire construction of this wheel provides aggressive cleaning action, making it ideal for heavy-duty applications. Whether you are removing stubborn weld slag, heavy scale, or preparing a surface for a subsequent coating, the stiff knots penetrate deep into surface irregularities to strip away unwanted material efficiently. Despite its aggressive nature, the brush is designed to wear evenly, providing consistent performance throughout its service life. It is an essential accessory for MRO workshops, metal fabrication plants, and any environment where stainless steel maintenance is routine.

Technical Excellence

With a 6-inch diameter and a standard 5/8-inch arbor, this brush is compatible with a variety of bench and pedestal grinders, as well as appropriate angle grinders. The stainless steel composition is specifically selected to withstand the heat and stress of heavy grinding without premature breakage, ensuring that you get the most value out of every wheel.

FAQ

This wire wheel features a 5/8-inch arbor hole.

Yes, you can, but it is not recommended if you plan to use the same brush on stainless steel later. Using it on carbon steel will contaminate the brush with iron particles, which can then be transferred to stainless steel, causing rust.

Stainless steel wire is crucial when working on stainless steel parts to prevent 'after-rust' caused by carbon contamination from standard steel brushes.

This is a knotted wire brush, designed for more aggressive cleaning and heavy-duty applications compared to crimped wire brushes.

The wheel has a diameter of 6 inches.

Always wear ANSI-approved safety glasses or a face shield, protective gloves, and appropriate clothing to protect against flying debris and wire filaments.

No, Walter wire brushes are specifically engineered and balanced to minimize vibration, ensuring smoother operation and reduced operator fatigue.

It is compatible with bench grinders, pedestal grinders, or large angle grinders that accept a 6-inch wheel with a 5/8-inch arbor.
