12C111 - Walter 1-1/2 Inch Type 16 Grinding Cone 5/8-11 Thread

Heavy-Duty Stock Removal for Industrial Applications

The Walter 12C111 is a premium-grade Type 16 grinding cone engineered for the rigorous demands of foundries, steel mills, and heavy fabrication environments. When standard grinding wheels cannot access the workpiece, this cone provides the necessary reach and geometry to effectively remove material from internal diameters, contours, and confined spaces. Measuring 1-1/2 inches in diameter and 3 inches in length, it offers a substantial abrasive surface area that maintains its shape even under heavy pressure.

Designed with an integrated 5/8"-11 internal metal thread, this abrasive cone mounts directly onto the spindle of compatible straight grinders and die grinders. This direct mounting system eliminates the need for separate collets or adapters, ensuring a rigid connection that maximizes power transfer from the tool to the work surface. The Type 16 geometry, characterized by its curved sides and rounded nose, is particularly effective for blending fillets, smoothing out casting flash, and deburring irregular holes where square-edged plugs (Type 18) might gouge the material.

Walter Surface Technologies is renowned for the consistency and balance of their bonded abrasives. The 12C111 is manufactured to strict tolerances to ensure concentricity. For the procurement specialist, this translates to a consumable that not only performs efficiently but also protects capital equipment; balanced abrasives reduce vibration, thereby extending the bearing life of pneumatic and electric grinders. This product is specifically formulated for use on steel and stainless steel, providing aggressive removal rates without glazing over, ensuring continuous productivity in high-volume operations.

Whether used for snagging castings or preparing heavy weldments, the 12C111 delivers a cost-effective solution for material removal in difficult-to-access areas. Its durability reduces the frequency of changeovers, keeping downtime to a minimum and throughput high.
