OVERVIEW

Precision Engineered for Industrial Surface Finishing

The Walter Surface Technologies 13C125 Mounted Wire Brush is a premium abrasive tool designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial metalworking environments. Engineered with a focus on longevity and performance, this 3-inch diameter brush features high-grade, oil-hardened, and tempered steel wire. This specific metallurgical treatment ensures that the wire bristles maintain their stiffness and cutting ability over a longer service life compared to standard consumer-grade brushes. The crimped wire configuration offers a degree of flexibility, allowing the brush to conform to irregular surface contours, making it an excellent choice for general surface cleaning, deburring, and finishing applications where a knotted wire might be too aggressive.

One of the standout features of the Walter 13C125 is its impeccable balance. In high-speed rotary applications, such as those involving die grinders operating at up to 25,000 RPM, balance is critical. An unbalanced brush can cause excessive vibration, leading to premature wear on the power tool's bearings and increased risk of operator fatigue or injury (Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome). Walter's manufacturing process ensures that every brush is concentric and balanced, providing smooth, safe, and efficient operation. The integrated 1/4-inch shank is precision-ground to fit securely into standard collets, ensuring a true run and minimizing run-out.

This mounted brush is specifically categorized for use on carbon steel and other ferrous metals. It is an essential consumable for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) professionals requiring reliable tools for surface preparation. Whether utilized in automated equipment or handheld power tools, the 13C125 delivers consistent results in removing surface contaminants like rust, scale, and paint without altering the base material's geometry significantly.

FAQ

The maximum safe operating speed is 25,000 RPM.

It has a standard 1/4-inch shank, suitable for most die grinders and drills.

This brush uses carbon steel wire. Using it on stainless steel can cause contamination and rust issues (after-rust). For stainless steel, a stainless steel wire brush is recommended.

Crimped wire is flexible and better for light to medium cleaning and irregular surfaces. Knot wire is twisted for higher impact and aggressive material removal.

The brush has a diameter of 3 inches and a face width of approximately 1/4 inch.

No, this is a mounted brush, meaning the stem (shank) is permanently attached to the brush wheel.

Always wear eye protection (safety glasses and a face shield), gloves, and protective clothing, as wire bristles can occasionally detach during use.

Yes, as long as the drill has a chuck that accepts a 1/4-inch shank, though die grinders are typically more effective due to higher RPM.
