15G208 - Walter Coolcut 6-1/2-Inch x 1-Inch 80 Grit Bench Grinder Flap Wheel

Industrial-Grade Finishing with Walter Coolcut™ Technology

The Walter 15G208 Coolcut™ Flap Wheel is a premium abrasive solution designed to enhance the versatility of standard bench grinders in industrial and MRO environments. Measuring 6-1/2 inches in diameter with a 1-inch width, this wheel is engineered to bridge the gap between heavy stock removal and final surface polishing. Unlike traditional bonded abrasive wheels that are rigid and aggressive, the Coolcut™ flap wheel utilizes a radial arrangement of high-quality abrasive cloth flaps. This design allows the wheel to conform slightly to the workpiece, providing a smoother, more controlled action that is ideal for blending, shaping, and deburring complex parts.

One of the primary challenges in metal finishing is heat management, particularly when working with heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel or aluminum. The Coolcut™ series addresses this with its specialized abrasive composition and flap configuration, which promotes airflow and dissipates heat effectively. This ensures that the workpiece remains cool, significantly reducing the risk of heat discoloration, warping, or blueing. The 80 Grit texture of the 15G208 model offers a versatile medium-coarse finish, making it aggressive enough to remove light burrs and tool marks while leaving a uniform satin surface that is often the final step in many fabrication processes.

Installation is straightforward and universal; the package includes a set of flanges designed to adapt the wheel to various bench grinder shaft sizes. This eliminates compatibility guesswork and allows facility managers to deploy these wheels across different machines in the shop. Whether used for cleaning up machined components, preparing surfaces for welding, or restoring maintenance parts, the Walter Coolcut™ Flap Wheel delivers consistent, reliable performance that professionals trust. It is a safe, durable, and efficient alternative to wire brushes and solid stones for all general-purpose finishing tasks on steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.
