OVERVIEW

Extreme Material Removal with Walter Xcavator XX

The Walter Xcavator XX™ (SKU: 08X602) represents the pinnacle of heavy-duty grinding performance. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, this 6-inch grinding wheel is specifically designed for industrial professionals who demand the highest material removal rates (MRR) possible without sacrificing safety or comfort. At the core of the Xcavator XX is a proprietary blend of advanced ceramic grains. Unlike standard abrasive grains that dull quickly, these ceramic particles are engineered to micro-fracture under pressure, continuously revealing sharp, fresh cutting edges. This self-sharpening action ensures that the wheel maintains its aggressive bite from the first spark to the very last inch of the disc.

Measuring 6 inches in diameter with a 1/8-inch thickness and a standard 7/8-inch arbor, this wheel is optimized for aggressive stock removal on the toughest metals. It excels in applications involving steel, stainless steel, and hard metal alloys. One of the critical advantages of the Xcavator XX is its purity; it is manufactured to be ferrous-free, making it an ideal choice for stainless steel fabrication where cross-contamination must be avoided to prevent rust and corrosion issues down the line.

Despite its aggressive nature, Walter has designed the Xcavator XX to be surprisingly comfortable for the operator. The wheel composition helps dampen vibration, reducing operator fatigue during extended grinding sessions. Whether you are beveling thick plates, grinding down heavy welds, or shaping hard alloys, the 08X602 delivers consistent, powerful performance that reduces cycle times and increases overall shop productivity. It is the ultimate tool for the most challenging grinding environments found in mining, oil and gas, and heavy construction industries.

FAQ

The Xcavator XX is designed for steel, stainless steel, and hard metal alloys. It is particularly effective on hard metals where other wheels might glaze.

Yes, the 08X602 is manufactured to be ferrous-free (free of iron, sulfur, and chlorine), ensuring it will not contaminate stainless steel surfaces.

This wheel has a standard 7/8" arbor, making it compatible with most 6-inch angle grinders.

Ceramic grains are harder and designed to micro-fracture, creating new sharp edges as they wear. This results in a faster cut, longer life, and cooler grinding temperatures compared to aluminum oxide.

The Walter 08X602 is 1/8" thick, which allows for aggressive material removal.

No, this is a Type 27 depressed center grinding wheel designed to be used with the standard flange and nut provided with your angle grinder.

While 1/8" is thinner than some grinding wheels, the Xcavator XX is primarily designed for grinding and stock removal. For pure cutting, a dedicated cut-off wheel (typically .045" thick) is recommended.
