12D023 - Walter A-5 Stainless Steel Grinding Point

Precision Grinding for Stainless Steel Applications

The Walter Surface Technologies 12D023 A-5 Mounted Point is a premium abrasive tool engineered specifically for the demanding requirements of stainless steel finishing. In industrial environments where precision and material integrity are paramount, this mounted point delivers exceptional performance. Unlike general-purpose grinding stones that may cause heat buildup or cross-contamination, the 12D023 is formulated with high-quality abrasive grains designed to cut cool and clean on stainless alloys.

One of the critical challenges in die grinding operations is vibration, which can lead to chatter marks on the workpiece, premature wear on the power tool, and operator fatigue (white finger syndrome). Walter addresses this by manufacturing these points with meticulous balance. This concentricity ensures a smooth, vibration-free rotation even at high RPMs, allowing for greater control and a superior surface finish. The A-5 shape is particularly versatile, featuring a cylindrical body with a rounded nose, making it ideal for accessing tight corners, blending contours, and working inside pipes or fittings.

Durability is a hallmark of Walter abrasives. The bonding matrix used in this mounted point holds the abrasive grains securely until they are worn, ensuring consistent cutting action throughout the life of the product. Whether you are enlarging a bore, deburring a machined part, or smoothing a weld in a confined space, this tool provides the reliability professional fabricators expect. It is an essential consumable for MRO workshops, aerospace fabrication, and food-grade stainless steel processing facilities.

Key Technical Benefits:

• Material Specificity: Optimized for stainless steel to prevent corrosion-inducing contamination.
• Vibration Control: Balanced construction protects expensive die grinders and improves user comfort.
• Consistent Finish: Uniform grain structure ensures predictable material removal and surface quality.
