OVERVIEW

High-Performance Abrasive for Industrial Steel Applications

The Walter HP Grinding Wheel (SKU: 08B400) is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industrial metalworking. Designed with a proprietary bond formulation, this 4-inch abrasive wheel delivers a superior combination of safety, speed, and longevity. In high-volume production environments, downtime associated with frequent wheel changes can significantly impact throughput. The HP series addresses this by offering an extra-long wheel life, ensuring that operators can maintain continuous workflow for longer periods compared to standard general-purpose wheels.

Measuring 4 inches in diameter with a 1/4-inch thickness and a 5/8-inch arbor, this wheel is compatible with standard angle grinders used in fabrication shops, maintenance departments, and construction sites. The wheel is specifically optimized for use on steel, providing aggressive material removal rates without sacrificing control. Its wear-resistant composition ensures that the wheel retains its shape and cutting ability even under heavy load, making it an economical choice for cost-conscious operations that refuse to compromise on quality.

Safety is paramount in abrasive manufacturing, and Walter Surface Technologies has formulated the HP wheel to adhere to strict safety standards. The reinforced structure withstands the centrifugal forces and lateral pressures often encountered during heavy grinding tasks. Whether used for beveling, stock removal, or smoothing rough surfaces, the HP wheel provides a consistent and stable grinding experience. By reducing the physical effort required to penetrate the metal surface, it also helps mitigate operator fatigue, leading to safer and more productive work shifts.

This product is supplied in a package of 25, making it convenient for inventory management in busy workshops. For professionals seeking a reliable, high-performance solution for everyday steel grinding tasks, the Walter HP wheel stands out as a market leader in durability and efficiency.

FAQ

The Walter HP grinding wheel is specifically formulated for use on steel. It provides optimal performance and life when grinding mild steel and structural steel.

This wheel has a diameter of 4 inches, a thickness of 1/4 inch, and an arbor size of 5/8 inch.

The product is sold in a package containing 25 grinding wheels.

No, this is a Type 27 depressed center grinding wheel with a 1/4-inch thickness, designed for grinding and stock removal, not for cutting.

No, this is a bonded abrasive wheel that mounts directly to the angle grinder using the grinder's flange and nut system; no backing pad is required.

While it may physically grind stainless, it is formulated for steel. For stainless steel, Walter recommends wheels specifically designed to prevent contamination and heat buildup, such as their HP Stainless or Allsteel lines.

This wheel fits standard 4-inch angle grinders that have a 5/8-inch arbor shaft.

The HP (High Performance) series is engineered to offer a better ratio of removal rate to wheel life, grinding faster with less effort and lasting longer than standard general-purpose wheels.
