OVERVIEW

Walter 08E500 Concrete Grinding Wheel Overview

The Walter 08E500 is a specialized 5-inch grinding wheel formulated with C24 silicon carbide grain, specifically designed for working with non-ferrous materials such as concrete, masonry, stone, and cast iron. Unlike standard aluminum oxide wheels intended for steel, this abrasive composition prevents loading and glazing when grinding softer or abrasive masonry materials, ensuring consistent cutting action throughout the wheel's life.

Engineered with high-strength reinforcement, this 1/4-inch thick wheel provides exceptional safety and stability during heavy-duty grinding operations. The bonding matrix is optimized to balance wheel life with material removal rates, making it an economical choice for construction and foundry applications. Whether smoothing concrete surfaces, beveling stone, or cleaning cast iron castings, the 08E500 delivers reliable performance.

Operators will appreciate the smooth grinding feel and reduced vibration, which contributes to better control and less fatigue over extended periods of use. This wheel is compatible with standard 5-inch angle grinders and is built to withstand the rigors of aggressive material removal in demanding industrial environments. It represents a high-performance solution for masonry professionals requiring durability and speed.

FAQ

This wheel is designed for concrete, masonry, stone, and cast iron.

It features a C24 grit, which is a coarse silicon carbide grain ideal for aggressive material removal.

It is not recommended. Silicon carbide is best for non-ferrous materials. For steel, use an aluminum oxide wheel.

It fits standard 5-inch angle grinders.

This is a grinding wheel with a 1/4-inch thickness, designed for surface grinding, not cutting.

No, this is a bonded abrasive wheel (Type 27) and does not require a backing pad.

The wheel has a diameter of 5 inches.

Silicon Carbide is sharper and harder than aluminum oxide, allowing it to cut through masonry and stone without dulling or glazing over.
