OVERVIEW

Maximize Industrial Efficiency with Walter HP XX Technology

In the demanding world of industrial metal fabrication, the cost of consumables is often measured not just by the price of the wheel, but by the total cost of operation. The Walter HP XX Grinding Wheel (08H502) is engineered specifically to address this metric, providing the lowest overall cost of grinding on steel and stainless steel. By incorporating the latest advancements in abrasive grain chemistry and bonding manufacturing technology, Walter has created a wheel that outlasts standard competitors while maintaining an aggressive cut rate throughout its lifespan.

The HP XX series is recognized as the longest-lasting grinding wheel in Walter’s extensive lineup. For facility managers and procurement specialists, this translates directly to reduced downtime. Fewer wheel changes mean your operators spend more time grinding and less time swapping out worn discs. The 5-inch diameter combined with a 1/8-inch thickness provides a robust platform for heavy stock removal, making it an ideal choice for structural steel fabrication, shipyard maintenance, and heavy equipment manufacturing.

Safety and consistency are paramount in industrial environments. The HP XX features a reinforced Type 27 depressed center design, optimized for grinding at angles between 15 and 30 degrees. The A-24-ASXX specification indicates a coarse, high-performance grain structure that resists glazing, ensuring that the wheel bites into the metal from the first spark to the hub. Whether you are deburring massive steel plates or preparing weld seams on stainless vessels, the Walter HP XX delivers the reliability and performance required for high-volume production environments.

Key Industrial Benefits

  • Extended Lifespan: Reduces frequency of wheel changes, optimizing labor hours.
  • Aggressive Removal: High material removal rate speeds up production cycles.
  • Versatility: Formulated to perform exceptionally on both mild steel and stainless steel.
  • Cost Efficiency: Delivers the lowest total grinding cost per unit of material removed.

FAQ

The Walter HP XX (08H502) is designed for use on both steel and stainless steel. It is formulated to prevent contamination on stainless while maintaining durability on mild steel.

This 5-inch wheel is typically rated for a maximum speed of 12,250 RPM. Always verify the RPM rating printed on the wheel matches or exceeds your grinder's no-load speed.

Type 27 refers to a depressed center wheel profile. This shape allows the locking nut to sit within the wheel's center, enabling grinding at flat angles (typically 15-30 degrees) without the nut interfering with the workpiece.

The HP XX series incorporates Walter's latest bonding technology to offer the longest life in their lineup. It is designed to provide the lowest total cost of grinding by balancing aggressive removal with extreme durability.

This wheel has a standard 7/8-inch arbor hole, which fits most standard 4.5-inch and 5-inch angle grinders.

No, this is a grinding wheel with a 1/8-inch thickness. It is designed for surface grinding and stock removal. For cutting, you should use a Type 1 or Type 27 cutting wheel (typically 0.045" thick).

No, this is a bonded abrasive grinding wheel and does not require a backing pad. It mounts directly to the angle grinder using the grinder's flange and lock nut.

The 'A24' in the spec indicates a 24-grit aluminum oxide grain, which is a coarse grit designed for rapid material removal.
