OVERVIEW

Precision Grinding with Walter W196 Mounted Points

When it comes to metal fabrication and finishing, precision is paramount. The Walter W196 Mounted Point (SKU: 12D677) is expertly crafted to meet the rigorous demands of industrial grinding, specifically designed for mild steel and other ferrous metals. Unlike generic grinding stones that may wobble or wear unevenly, Walter Surface Technologies has engineered this product with a focus on perfect balance. Each point is meticulously tested to ensure concentricity, resulting in a vibration-free experience that not only improves the quality of the finish but also protects your valuable power tools from the wear and tear associated with unbalanced accessories.

The W196 shape is a staple in the toolbox of metalworkers, offering a cylindrical profile that is ideal for a variety of tasks. Whether you are enlarging a drilled hole to a precise diameter, fitting mechanical parts, or smoothing out rough edges in hard-to-reach areas, this mounted point delivers consistent performance. The high-quality abrasive grains are bonded securely, allowing for aggressive stock removal without sacrificing control. This makes it an excellent choice for working with cast iron, tool steel, and high-tensile steel, where maintaining the integrity of the workpiece is critical.

Operator comfort and safety are at the forefront of this product's design. The reduction in vibration means less hand fatigue during extended use, allowing for greater accuracy and productivity. Furthermore, the durability of the abrasive matrix ensures that the point retains its shape longer, reducing the frequency of replacements and downtime. For professionals seeking a reliable, high-performance solution for internal grinding and deburring, the Walter W196 is the superior choice.

Key Applications

  • Fitting and Enlarging: Perfect for adjusting bore sizes and fitting metal components together.
  • Deburring: efficiently removes burrs from drilled holes and machined edges.
  • Surface Finishing: Smooths out weld splatter and casting imperfections in confined spaces.

FAQ

This mounted point is designed for use on mild steel, cast iron, tool steel, and high tensile steel.

The Walter W196 is designed to be used with a die grinder (pneumatic or electric) that accepts the point's shank size.

A vibration-free point protects the bearings of your power tool from damage, reduces operator fatigue (hand-arm vibration), and ensures a smoother, more precise finish on the workpiece.

The W196 is a cylindrical shape, typically measuring 5/8 inch in diameter and 1 inch in length, ideal for internal grinding and contouring.

While it can physically grind aluminum, it is not recommended as the soft metal will likely clog (load) the abrasive pores quickly. A wax or lubricant, or a point specifically for non-ferrous metals, would be better.

Always wear ANSI-approved safety glasses or a face shield, hearing protection, and appropriate gloves. Ensure the tool's RPM does not exceed the maximum RPM rating of the mounted point.

Yes, mounted points come permanently bonded to a steel mandrel (shank), typically 1/4 inch for this size stone, ready for insertion into a collet.
