15F056 - Walter 1-Inch Mounted Flap Wheel 60 Grit

Precision Finishing with Industrial-Grade Durability

The Walter 15F056 Mounted Flap Wheel is engineered for professionals who demand consistency and longevity in their abrasive consumables. Designed with a compact 1-inch diameter and a 3/8-inch width, this tool is the optimal solution for accessing restricted areas, such as the inner diameters of pipes, small channels, and intricate metal contours. The wheel features a premium 60-grit aluminum oxide abrasive cloth that strikes a balance between material removal and surface refinement, making it suitable for both light deburring and blending applications.

Walter Surface Technologies utilizes a specialized manufacturing process to ensure that each flap wheel is perfectly balanced. This attention to concentricity significantly reduces vibration during operation, protecting both the workpiece from chatter marks and the operator from fatigue. The flaps are securely bonded to a central core, ensuring structural integrity even at rotational speeds up to 30,000 RPM. As the wheel is used, the abrasive cloth wears down uniformly, continuously exposing fresh, sharp grain. This self-sharpening action guarantees a consistent cut rate and a uniform surface profile from the first pass to the last.

This flap wheel is highly versatile and compatible with a wide range of materials, including stainless steel, mild steel, and aluminum. It is particularly effective for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) tasks where precision cleaning and shaping are required. Whether you are removing rust, blending weld seams in tight corners, or preparing a surface for painting, the Walter 15F056 delivers a reliable, industrial-grade performance that minimizes downtime and maximizes productivity.

Technical Excellence in Abrasives

The construction of the 15F056 highlights Walter's commitment to quality. The abrasive cloth is resin-bonded to resist heat buildup, which is critical when working on heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel. By maintaining a cooler cutting temperature, the wheel prevents discoloration and warping of the workpiece. The standard 1/4-inch shaft ensures universal compatibility with pneumatic and electric die grinders, making this an essential addition to any industrial tool crib.
