07T453 - Walter Ultimate Shine Flap Disc 4.5 Inch with Hub

Walter Surface Technologies Ultimate Shine™ Flap Disc

The Walter Ultimate Shine™ (07T453) is a specialized abrasive solution engineered to deliver exceptional surface finishing results with the convenience of a standard angle grinder. Designed for fabricators and metalworkers who demand precision, this 4-1/2" disc utilizes a unique flap construction that bridges the gap between traditional sanding and final polishing. It is capable of achieving a #8 mirror finish on stainless steel, a requirement often seen in the food processing, pharmaceutical, and architectural industries.

One of the standout technical features of the Ultimate Shine disc is its ability to polish without the use of auxiliary compounds. Traditional methods often require felt pads and messy polishing pastes, which add time to the process and require cleanup. The 07T453 integrates the polishing agent directly into the flap material, ensuring a consistent finish throughout the disc's lifespan. This self-contained design not only improves workflow efficiency but also reduces the risk of cross-contamination on sensitive alloys.

The disc features a 5/8"-11 threaded arbor, allowing for rapid mounting and dismounting on standard angle grinders without the need for locking nuts. It is rated for a maximum speed of 13,300 RPM, providing the rotational velocity needed for effective material blending and shining. Whether working on mild steel, stainless steel, or non-ferrous metals like aluminum, the Ultimate Shine disc offers a controlled removal rate that smooths out surface imperfections while simultaneously generating a high-gloss appearance.

By consolidating the finishing steps, Walter helps industrial professionals reduce labor costs and consumable inventory. The disc is free of iron, sulfur, and chlorine, ensuring it will not induce corrosion or rust on stainless steel surfaces. It is an essential tool for MRO applications where restoring a polished finish is required quickly and effectively.
