15L863 - Walter Flexcut Mill Scale Flexible Blending Disc 6-Inch 36 Grit

Effortless Mill Scale Removal with Walter Flexcut

Dealing with mill scale on hot-rolled steel can be a frustrating and time-consuming process for any fabricator. Traditional grinding wheels often glaze over quickly, losing their cutting ability and generating excessive heat. The Walter 15L863 Flexcut Mill Scale flexible grinding wheel is engineered specifically to solve this problem. With a 6-inch diameter and aggressive 36 grit, this disc is designed to bite into mill scale and remove it cleanly without the wheel loading up or clogging.

The secret lies in the unique Diamond-Cut pattern and the specialized abrasive formulation. Unlike rigid grinding wheels that can gouge the surface or bounce off hard scale, the Flexcut Mill Scale wheel offers a degree of flexibility. This allows the disc to conform to the metal surface, providing a larger contact area for smoother, more consistent removal. It is particularly effective on curved surfaces where rigid wheels struggle to maintain an even finish. The cool grinding action prevents the workpiece from overheating, which is critical when preparing materials for welding or painting.

Beyond just mill scale, this versatile abrasive is an excellent choice for working with aluminum and other non-ferrous metals. These soft metals are notorious for clogging standard abrasives, but the Walter Flexcut design clears debris efficiently, ensuring continuous cutting action. By combining the aggressiveness of a grinding wheel with the finishing capabilities of a blending disc, the Walter 15L863 allows you to achieve a clean, even surface in a single step. This eliminates the need for multiple wheel changes, saving you valuable time and reducing consumable costs in your shop.

Whether you are prepping structural steel, cleaning up aluminum welds, or removing rust, this flexible blending disc delivers superior performance. It transforms a typically difficult grinding task into a hassle-free operation, leaving you with a pristine surface ready for the next stage of fabrication.
