OVERVIEW

High-Performance Finishing for Stainless and Aluminum

The Walter 06F604 Enduro-Flex Stainless Flap Disc is a premium abrasive tool engineered specifically to address the challenges of grinding and finishing non-ferrous metals and stainless steel. Standard flap discs often glaze over or clog when used on softer or heat-sensitive materials like aluminum and stainless alloys. The Enduro-Flex Stainless features a specialized top coating and abrasive formulation that resists loading, ensuring consistent cutting action throughout the life of the disc. With a coarse 40 grit, this 6-inch disc is ideal for rapid stock removal, heavy weld blending, and edge chamfering, providing a superior finish in a single step.

Sustainable and Economical Design

One of the standout features of the Enduro-Flex series is the patented Eco-Trim backing. Unlike traditional fiberglass or plastic backings that must be discarded once the abrasive overhang is worn down, the Eco-Trim backing is made from natural, sustainable plant fibers. This backing can be easily trimmed away using a hard metal edge, exposing fresh abrasive grain that would otherwise go unused. This innovative design can extend the usable life of the disc by up to three times, significantly reducing consumable costs and waste in high-production environments. The backing also absorbs vibration, leading to a smoother, quieter grinding experience that reduces operator fatigue.

Convenience and Compatibility

Equipped with Walter's Spin-On 5/8"-11 hub, the 06F604 allows for lightning-fast disc changes without the need for pin wrenches or flange nuts. This integrated mounting system ensures the disc is perfectly centered every time, reducing vibration and improving safety. The 6-inch diameter offers a larger contact area than standard 4.5-inch or 5-inch discs, making it highly efficient for processing larger surface areas or long weld seams. Whether you are working in food processing equipment fabrication, architectural metalwork, or marine aluminum repair, this flap disc delivers the cool-cutting performance required to maintain the integrity of the base material.

FAQ

This disc is specifically designed for stainless steel, aluminum, and copper alloys. It is formulated to prevent glazing and loading on these materials.

You can trim the backing by running the edge of the backing against a sharp metal edge or a piece of scrap metal while the grinder is spinning. This exposes fresh abrasive flaps.

The Spin-On hub allows for tool-free installation and removal. It has a built-in 5/8"-11 thread that screws directly onto the grinder spindle, ensuring perfect centering and reduced vibration.

The maximum safe operating speed for the Walter 06F604 6" flap disc is typically 10,200 RPM. Always verify the RPM rating printed on the disc before use.

No, the Enduro-Flex Stainless is iron, sulfur, and chlorine-free, making it safe for use on stainless steel without causing contamination or rust issues.

Yes, for many applications. The 40 grit abrasive is aggressive enough for weld removal, while the flap construction provides a smoother finish than a hard rock wheel, effectively combining two steps into one.

Standard discs often clog (load up) with soft aluminum, rendering them useless quickly. The Enduro-Flex Stainless has a special coating that prevents the aluminum from sticking to the abrasive grains.

The 06F604 is a 40 Grit disc, which is a coarse grit suitable for heavy stock removal and initial weld blending.
