11L333V - Walter ZIP 3-Inch Die Grinder Wheel 1/4-Inch Thick (Pack of 5)

Precision Grinding for Confined Spaces

The Walter ZIP™ 3" x 1/4" x 3/8" Grinding Wheel (SKU: 11L333V) is a premium abrasive tool engineered for industrial applications requiring precision and power in hard-to-reach areas. Manufactured by Walter Surface Technologies, this wheel is specifically designed for use on straight shaft grinders and die grinders. It brings the high-performance characteristics of the renowned ZIP™ family—speed, safety, and longevity—to a compact form factor. This makes it an indispensable asset for MRO professionals and fabricators who need to perform heavy-duty grinding, notching, or weld preparation in spaces where standard angle grinders cannot fit.

Constructed with a specialized grain blend, the 11L333V delivers a remarkably cool cutting action. This feature is critical when working with heat-sensitive materials, as it minimizes the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and prevents the bluing or discoloration often associated with aggressive grinding. The wheel is reinforced to withstand the high RPMs of pneumatic and electric die grinders, ensuring operator safety and smooth, vibration-free performance. Its 1/4-inch thickness provides the necessary rigidity for side-loading applications, allowing for effective notching and shaping without the risk of wheel flex or breakage.

Crucially, this grinding wheel is certified contaminant-free, containing less than 0.1% iron, sulfur, and chlorine. This makes it safe for use on stainless steel and other exotic alloys, eliminating the risk of corrosion induction caused by abrasive contamination. The 11L333V offers an excellent balance of material removal rate and wheel life, reducing the frequency of wheel changes and thereby increasing overall operational efficiency. Supplied in a pack of 5, these wheels provide a reliable solution for consistent, high-quality metal finishing tasks.
