11U403 - Walter ZIP ALU 4-Inch Aluminum Cut-Off Wheel (Pack of 25)

Experience Clog-Free Cutting with Walter ZIP ALU

Working with aluminum presents unique challenges for metal fabricators, primarily the tendency of the soft metal to melt and clog standard abrasive wheels. The Walter ZIP ALU™ Cut-Off Wheel is engineered specifically to overcome this hurdle. With a diameter of 4 inches and an ultra-thin 1/32-inch profile, this wheel is designed to slice through aluminum and other non-ferrous alloys with exceptional speed and precision.

The secret lies in Walter's unique abrasive formulation. Unlike general-purpose wheels that can gum up and stop cutting, the ZIP ALU maintains a clean, sharp edge throughout its life. This "cool cutting" action prevents the workpiece from overheating, which is critical when working with heat-sensitive materials like aluminum. By reducing friction and heat build-up, the wheel ensures a smooth finish that often requires little to no post-cut deburring.

This pack contains 25 wheels, making it an economical choice for busy workshops. The 3/8-inch arbor fits standard small angle grinders and die grinders equipped for 4-inch accessories. Whether you are cutting aluminum sheets, tubing, or extrusions, the ZIP ALU delivers straight, accurate cuts without the frustration of wheel glazing. It is the ultimate solution for professionals who demand efficiency and quality in their non-ferrous fabrication projects.

Key Benefits for Fabricators:

• No Clogging: Spend more time cutting and less time changing glazed wheels.
• Cool Operation: Minimizes heat discoloration and warping of the base material.
• Precision: The 1/32" thickness removes less material for cleaner, faster cuts.
