OVERVIEW

Industrial-Grade Performance for Heavy Fabrication

The Walter 08B715 HP Grinding Wheel is a premium abrasive solution designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial metalworking. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, this 7-inch Type 27 wheel is formulated to deliver exceptional material removal rates on steel without sacrificing wheel longevity. In high-volume fabrication environments, the balance between cutting speed and abrasive life is critical to maintaining operational efficiency. The HP (High Performance) series addresses this by utilizing a proprietary grain blend and advanced resinoid bonding system that resists glazing and maintains a sharp cutting face throughout the life of the wheel.

One of the standout features of this specific SKU is the integrated 5/8-11 threaded arbor. This "spin-on" hub design eliminates the need for standard flange nuts and pin wrenches, drastically reducing the time required for wheel changeovers. In operations where downtime equates to lost revenue, the ability to swap abrasives in seconds rather than minutes provides a tangible productivity gain. Furthermore, the integrated hub ensures perfect centering on the angle grinder spindle, reducing run-out and vibration. Lower vibration levels not only improve the surface finish of the workpiece but also contribute to the reduction of Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS) risks for operators using tools for extended periods.

The 1/4-inch thickness provides the structural integrity necessary for heavy side-loading, making this wheel ideal for aggressive applications such as beveling structural steel, grinding down heavy weld seams, and shaping metal plates. The wheel is rated for a maximum speed of 8,600 RPM, making it compatible with standard 7-inch and 9-inch industrial angle grinders. By choosing the Walter HP series, procurement managers and facility supervisors invest in a consumable that lowers the total cost per grind through extended durability and consistent performance.

Key Industrial Benefits:

  • Cost Efficiency: Long life span reduces the frequency of inventory replenishment and wheel changes.
  • Operational Safety: High-integrity bonding and integrated hub enhance safety during high-speed operation.
  • Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of steel grades used in construction, shipbuilding, and general manufacturing.

FAQ

This wheel features a 5/8-11 threaded arbor (hub), allowing it to spin directly onto compatible angle grinder spindles without a flange nut.

While it can grind stainless steel, the Walter HP formulation is optimized for mild steel. For dedicated stainless steel applications, Walter offers specific wheels designed to prevent contamination and heat buildup.

The maximum safe operating speed is 8,600 RPM. Always ensure your grinder's no-load speed does not exceed this rating.

No, this is a Type 27 grinding wheel with a 1/4-inch thickness. It is designed for grinding and shaping, not for cutting. Use a Type 1 or Type 27 cut-off wheel for cutting applications.

HP stands for 'High Performance,' indicating that this wheel is formulated for a superior balance of fast removal rates and long wheel life compared to standard general-purpose wheels.

No, this is a bonded abrasive grinding wheel. Backing pads are typically used for resin fiber discs or flap discs. This wheel mounts directly to the grinder.

This is a 7-inch diameter wheel, designed for use on 7-inch or 9-inch angle grinders.

The threaded hub ensures the wheel is centered correctly and securely attached, reducing the risk of wheel imbalance or detachment during operation.
