11L221 - Walter ZIP 2-Inch Die Grinder Cut-Off Wheel

Precision Cutting for Die Grinders

The Walter ZIP 2" x 1/8" x 5/16" Cut-Off Wheel (11L221) brings the industrial-grade performance of the renowned ZIP family to your handheld die grinders and straight shaft tools. Designed specifically for metalworkers who require precision in tight spaces, this abrasive wheel is engineered to handle the high RPMs of pneumatic and electric die grinders while delivering a smooth, controlled cut.

Unlike standard abrasive wheels that may wear down rapidly or generate excessive heat, the Walter ZIP series is crafted with a proprietary bond that dissipates heat effectively. This feature is critical when working with heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel, as it helps prevent bluing and discoloration, reducing the need for post-weld cleanup. The 1/8-inch thickness is the manufacturer's recommended specification for notching applications, providing enough structural integrity to handle side pressure that thinner wheels cannot, while still maintaining a fast cutting speed.

Whether you are modifying custom parts, cutting out welds in hard-to-reach areas, or performing detailed fabrication work, this wheel offers superior longevity. Its reinforced construction ensures safety and stability, giving operators confidence during demanding tasks. Compatible with standard 5/16" arbors found on many industrial die grinder mandrels, this wheel is a versatile addition to any professional abrasive inventory.

Key Applications

• Notching structural steel and tubing
