15L303 - Walter FLEXCUT 3" Flexible Grinding Wheel, Grit 36 (Pack of 25)

High-Performance Flexible Grinding for All Metals

The Walter 15L303 FLEXCUT™ Flexible Grinding Wheel represents over 25 years of innovation in abrasive technology. Designed as a superior alternative to standard rigid grinding wheels, the FLEXCUT series is engineered to deliver a unique combination of aggressive material removal and smooth surface blending. This 3-inch wheel features a coarse 36 grit, making it ideal for heavy stock removal while maintaining enough flexibility to conform to the workpiece.

One of the standout features of this abrasive is its proprietary Diamond-Cut pattern. This surface design promotes high removal rates by providing sharp cutting edges that actively engage with the metal. Simultaneously, the pattern facilitates airflow and debris evacuation, resulting in a "cool grinding" experience. This is critical when working on heat-sensitive materials or thin-walled components where warping or discoloration could occur. The wheel is manufactured in Italy to strict quality standards, ensuring consistent performance across every unit in the 25-pack.

Versatility is at the core of the FLEXCUT's design. It is specially formulated to work effectively on both ferrous metals, such as carbon steel and stainless steel, and non-ferrous metals like aluminum. Traditional grinding wheels often suffer from "loading" or clogging when used on soft metals like aluminum, rendering them useless quickly. The FLEXCUT 15L303 resists this loading, maintaining its cutting efficiency throughout its lifespan. This makes it an essential consumable for fabrication shops that handle a diverse range of materials.

By combining the capabilities of a grinding wheel and a finishing disc, the FLEXCUT allows operators to reduce process steps. Instead of switching between a hard wheel for stock removal and a fiber disc for blending, users can often achieve a paint-ready finish in a single operation. This efficiency translates to lower labor costs and reduced consumable inventory.
