OVERVIEW

Advanced Abrasive Technology for Industrial Finishing

The Walter COOLCUT XX™ 15X462 is a premium 4-1/2 inch sanding disc designed to redefine productivity in metal fabrication and finishing. Engineered with Walter's proprietary Cyclone Technology™, this 120-grit abrasive disc features a unique geometric grain arrangement that creates specialized cooling channels. These channels actively direct air across the workpiece surface during rotation, significantly reducing heat generation. This is critical when working with heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel and aluminum, where thermal discoloration and warping can compromise the integrity of the part.

Industrial testing has shown that COOLCUT XX™ discs can deliver up to six times more stock removal than conventional sanding discs, while maintaining a cutting speed that is twice as fast. For fabrication shops, this translates to reduced downtime for disc changes and lower overall abrasive costs. The 120-grit composition of the 15X462 model is specifically tailored for fine finishing, blending welds, and preparing surfaces for painting or polishing. It provides a consistent scratch pattern that makes subsequent finishing steps easier and more predictable.

Durability is a hallmark of the COOLCUT XX™ series. The advanced bonding agents and premium grain structure ensure that the disc maintains its aggressive cutting action for a longer period, rather than glazing over or shedding grain prematurely. Whether you are removing light welds, blending surfaces on an alloy tank, or cleaning up carbon steel components, this disc offers the reliability required for high-volume industrial environments. It is designed to be used with a backing pad, preferably Walter's Turbo backing pads, to maximize the cooling effect and support the disc under pressure.

Key Industrial Benefits

By integrating the COOLCUT XX™ into your abrasive inventory, you gain access to a tool that balances aggression with finesse. The reduction in heat not only protects the workpiece but also extends the life of the abrasive grains themselves. This efficiency makes the 15X462 an excellent choice for MRO operations, custom fabrication, and manufacturing lines where consistent quality and speed are paramount.

FAQ

Cyclone Technology refers to the unique geometric spiral pattern of the abrasive grains. This design creates cooling channels that circulate air during rotation, significantly reducing heat buildup and extending disc life.

Yes, the 15X462 is a sanding disc (resin fiber style) and requires a backing pad for support. Walter recommends using their Turbo backing pads to maximize the cooling effect.

This disc is versatile and effective on stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminum, and various alloys. It is particularly good for heat-sensitive metals due to its cooling properties.

120 grit is a fine abrasive used for finishing, light blending, and surface conditioning. It removes scratches left by coarser grits and prepares the surface for polishing or painting.

Walter states that Coolcut XX discs can remove stock up to 6 times faster and cut 2 times faster than conventional sanding discs.

Yes, the cooling technology helps prevent the aluminum from melting and clogging (loading) the disc, making it a great choice for aluminum fabrication.

The 15X462 has a standard 7/8" arbor hole, making it compatible with most 4-1/2" and 5" angle grinders equipped with a suitable backing pad.

While it can perform similar tasks, sanding discs like the Coolcut XX are often more aggressive for their grit and flexible. However, flap discs generally last longer. The choice depends on user preference and the specific finish required.
