15X482 - Walter Coolcut XX 4.5-Inch Quick-Change Sanding Disc, 120 Grit

High-Performance Blending with Walter Coolcut XX

The Walter 15X482 Coolcut XX Quick-Change Sanding Disc represents the pinnacle of efficiency in surface finishing and blending operations. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, this 4.5-inch disc features a fine 120 grit abrasive structure, making it an exceptional choice for the final stages of surface preparation where consistency and smoothness are paramount. The Coolcut XX series is renowned for its aggressive material removal capabilities, yet it maintains a cool grinding zone thanks to advanced active cooling agents embedded within the resin bond. This feature is critical when working with heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel, as it helps prevent thermal discoloration and warping.

The standout feature of this specific model is its Quick-Change mounting interface. Unlike traditional resin fiber discs that require a locking nut and a pin wrench to install, the Quick-Change system utilizes a spin-on center hub. This design allows operators to mount and dismount the disc by hand in seconds, drastically reducing downtime in high-production environments. Furthermore, the self-centering nature of the Quick-Change hub ensures that the disc remains perfectly balanced during rotation, minimizing vibration and operator fatigue. When paired with the recommended Quick-Change Turbo backing pads, the disc benefits from increased airflow behind the abrasive surface, further extending the life of the product.

Technically, the 15X482 is formulated to be a universal solution. It delivers consistent performance across a wide spectrum of materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and other non-ferrous alloys. The 120 grit composition is specifically tailored for light stock removal, blending weld seams, and preparing surfaces for painting or polishing. By integrating the highest quality Zirconia Alumina grains, Walter ensures that the disc self-sharpens as it wears, providing a consistent cut rate from the first pass to the last.
