OVERVIEW

Experience Clog-Free Cutting with Walter ZIP ALU™

Cutting aluminum and other non-ferrous metals has traditionally been a frustrating task for fabricators and maintenance professionals. Standard abrasive wheels often overheat and "load up" or clog with soft metal shavings almost immediately. This not only destroys the wheel but also slows down your work and creates dangerous heat buildup. The Walter ZIP ALU™ 3" Cut-Off Wheel (11U303) is the ultimate solution to this common problem, designed specifically to provide smooth, fast, and clog-free cuts every time.

Sold in a convenient pack of 25, these wheels are an essential addition to any workshop dealing with aluminum, copper, or brass. The secret lies in Walter's unique abrasive blend, which lubricates the cut as it grinds, preventing the soft metal from adhering to the wheel surface. This technology ensures that you get the full life out of every wheel, saving you money on consumables and time on wheel changes. Whether you are trimming aluminum siding, fabricating custom parts, or performing automotive repairs, the ZIP ALU™ delivers professional results.

While optimized for soft metals, this versatile wheel is also capable of cutting ferrous metals, making it a flexible tool for mixed-material jobs. Its 3-inch diameter and 3/8-inch arbor make it compatible with standard pneumatic die grinders and cut-off tools found in most shops. Don't let clogged wheels slow down your production—switch to Walter ZIP ALU™ for a cooler, faster, and more efficient cutting experience.

Why Choose ZIP ALU?

  • Saves Time: No stopping to change clogged wheels or clean up messy cuts.
  • Saves Money: Longer wheel life means you buy fewer replacements.
  • Better Finish: Cool cutting action reduces burrs and heat discoloration.
