OVERVIEW

Precision Grinding with Walter W205 Mounted Points

The Walter W205 Mounted Point (SKU: 12D722) represents the pinnacle of abrasive engineering for precision metal removal. Designed specifically for industrial environments where accuracy and tool longevity are paramount, this mounted point is an essential consumable for metal fabrication, tool and die making, and general maintenance operations. Walter Surface Technologies has formulated this product using top-tier abrasive grains that are optimized for ferrous metals, ensuring that the point cuts cool and maintains its geometry even under demanding workloads.

One of the critical challenges in using mounted points is managing vibration. Poorly balanced points can lead to "chatter," which ruins the surface finish of the workpiece and accelerates wear on the pneumatic or electric die grinder's bearings. The Walter W205 addresses this head-on with impeccable manufacturing standards that guarantee concentricity. This balance allows operators to work with greater precision in tight spaces, such as inside castings, pipe fittings, or machined bores, without the fatigue associated with vibrating tools.

The W205 shape is a versatile profile, well-suited for enlarging holes, smoothing ridges, and cleaning up welds in hard-to-reach corners. The vitrified bond holds the abrasive grains firmly, allowing for controlled breakdown that exposes fresh cutting edges continuously. This self-sharpening action is crucial when working with tough materials like tool steel and high-tensile alloys. Whether you are deburring a freshly machined part or prepping a cast iron surface for coating, the Walter W205 delivers consistent, professional results.

Safety and durability are built into the design, featuring a high-strength steel shank that resists bending under load. This ensures that the point remains true during operation, providing a safe and reliable grinding experience. For professionals who demand quality and efficiency, the Walter W205 is the superior choice for small-scale material removal and finishing tasks.

FAQ

The Walter W205 is designed primarily for ferrous metals. It performs exceptionally well on mild steel, cast iron, tool steel, and high-tensile steel alloys.

A balanced mounted point prevents vibration during high-speed rotation. This reduces operator fatigue, prevents 'chatter' marks on the workpiece, and extends the life of your die grinder's bearings.

You will need a die grinder (pneumatic or electric) equipped with a collet that matches the shank size of the mounted point (typically 1/4 inch for this class of abrasive).

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

If the point becomes glazed or loses its shape, you can use a dressing stone or a diamond dresser to expose fresh abrasive grains and restore the original profile.

Yes, Walter mounted points are manufactured to high safety standards. However, always check the maximum RPM rating on the package and ensure your tool does not exceed that speed. Always wear eye and face protection.

A mounted point is made of bonded abrasive grains (like a small grinding wheel) and grinds material away. A carbide burr has metal teeth that chip or cut the material away. Mounted points generally leave a smoother finish.
