13B180 - Walter 8-Inch Stainless Steel Crimped Wire Wheel for Bench Grinders

Premium Stainless Steel Cleaning for Bench Grinders

The Walter 13-B 180 8" Stainless Steel Bench Grinder Brush is an essential tool for professional workshops and fabrication facilities that demand precision and cleanliness. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, a leader in surface treatment solutions, this wire wheel is designed to deliver consistent performance and exceptional durability. Unlike standard carbon steel brushes, this unit features high-quality stainless steel bristles, making it the mandatory choice for working on stainless steel and aluminum parts where preventing cross-contamination and subsequent rust bloom is critical.

One of the standout features of this brush is its precision balance. Poorly balanced wire wheels can cause dangerous vibrations, leading to premature wear on the bench grinder bearings and operator fatigue. Walter ensures that every 13-B 180 wheel runs smooth and true, providing a safer and more comfortable working environment. The crimped wire design offers the perfect flexibility for general surface conditioning, allowing the bristles to conform slightly to the workpiece for effective cleaning without gouging the base material.

Versatility is built into the product with its universal mounting system. Each brush comes equipped with a set of nested reducer bushings, allowing it to fit securely on bench grinders with 1-inch, 3/4-inch, 5/8-inch, or 1/2-inch shafts. This eliminates the guesswork of sizing and ensures compatibility with almost any standard machine in your shop. Whether you are removing heat discoloration from TIG welds, stripping paint, or performing light deburring on machined stainless parts, this Walter brush delivers professional results every time.
