OVERVIEW

Premium Abrasive Performance for Stainless Steel

The Walter 14B053 Inox+ File Belt is a high-performance abrasive solution engineered specifically for the demanding requirements of industrial metal finishing. Measuring 1/2 inch by 24 inches with a coarse 36 grit, this belt is designed to deliver rapid stock removal while maintaining the integrity of the workpiece. It is part of Walter's renowned Inox+ series, which utilizes advanced abrasive technology to ensure consistent cutting action throughout the life of the belt.

One of the critical challenges in finishing stainless steel and high-nickel alloys is heat generation, which can lead to discoloration and warping. The Inox+ file belt addresses this with specialized cooling additives incorporated directly into the abrasive matrix. These additives actively reduce friction and heat buildup at the contact point, ensuring a cool cut that preserves the surface finish and metallurgical properties of the substrate. This makes it an ideal choice for industries requiring precise aesthetic and structural standards, such as food processing equipment manufacturing and pharmaceutical vessel fabrication.

Durability is paramount in portable file belt applications where stress on the abrasive is high. This belt features a robust Y-polyester backing that resists stretching and tearing, even under significant pressure. The construction includes a precision butt-joint reinforced with high-strength adhesive, eliminating the "bump" often found in lap-joint belts. This ensures smooth, vibration-free operation, extending the life of both the belt and the power tool while reducing operator fatigue.

Key Industrial Applications

  • Heavy Stock Removal: The 36 grit composition is aggressive enough to level welds and remove heavy burrs quickly.
  • Profile Finishing: The flexible yet strong backing allows the belt to conform to intricate shapes and tight radii without failure.
  • Heat-Sensitive Metals: Specifically formulated for stainless steel, aluminum, and exotic alloys where thermal management is critical.
