15W462 - Walter ALLSTEEL 4.5-Inch Flap Disc 120 Grit with Trimmable Backing

Industrial Grade Finishing for Steel Applications

The Walter 15W462 ALLSTEEL™ Flap Disc is a high-performance abrasive solution engineered specifically for industrial environments where efficiency and longevity are paramount. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of steel fabrication, maintenance, and repair operations, this 4-1/2 inch disc features a 120 grit configuration, making it the ideal choice for the final stages of surface preparation, blending, and finishing. Unlike standard consumer-grade abrasives, the ALLSTEEL™ line utilizes a sophisticated blend of zirconia alumina grains. This material is renowned for its toughness and ability to self-sharpen under pressure, ensuring that the disc maintains a consistent cutting rate from the first spark to the last.

For supply chain managers and shop foremen, the value proposition of the 15W462 lies in its innovative construction. The disc features a trimmable backing pad, a hallmark of Walter's commitment to sustainability and cost-effectiveness. As the abrasive flaps wear down, the backing can be trimmed back to expose unused abrasive material near the center of the disc. This feature alone can extend the life of the product significantly, reducing the frequency of disc changes and lowering overall consumable costs. Compatible with standard angle grinders featuring a 7/8" arbor, this disc is a versatile staple for any tool crib stocking abrasives for mild steel and structural steel applications.

Reliability is key in MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations). The Walter ALLSTEEL™ disc delivers vibration-free performance, which not only improves the quality of the finish but also reduces wear on the power tool and fatigue for the operator. Whether used for removing light rust, blending weld seams, or preparing surfaces for painting, this flap disc provides a consistent, high-quality result that professionals trust.
