The Walter ZIP Stainless Type 27 Cutting Wheel (SKU: 11F152V) is a premium abrasive solution designed specifically for the rigorous demands of stainless steel and nickel alloy fabrication. Engineered by Walter Surface Technologies, this wheel represents the pinnacle of the ZIP product family, known for delivering the coolest, fastest, and freest cuts in the industry. The 11F152V features a 5-inch diameter with a 7/8-inch arbor, making it compatible with standard angle grinders utilized in industrial environments.
A critical feature of this cutting wheel is its chemical formulation. It is guaranteed to be free of Iron, Sulfur, and Chlorine (Fe-S-Cl free), ensuring that it will not contaminate stainless steel surfaces. This is vital for industries such as food processing, nuclear energy, and pharmaceutical manufacturing, where corrosion resistance and material purity are paramount. The absence of these contaminants prevents the formation of rust spots and maintains the integrity of the passive layer on stainless steel.
The Type 27 depressed center design distinguishes this wheel from standard flat (Type 1) wheels. The depressed center provides a recessed hub, allowing the locking nut to sit flush or below the cutting plane. This configuration offers greater rigidity and stability during the cut, reducing vibration and allowing for cutting in tighter spaces or flush against surfaces. Combined with its ultra-thin 3/64-inch profile, the wheel minimizes friction and heat generation, preventing heat discoloration (bluing) of the workpiece and preserving the material's mechanical properties.
Sold in a convenient pack of 5, these wheels are reinforced for safety and durability. They are designed to cut quickly with minimal pressure, reducing operator fatigue and increasing throughput. Whether cutting tubing, sheet metal, or structural profiles, the Walter ZIP Stainless Type 27 delivers a clean, burr-free finish that significantly reduces the need for subsequent deburring or grinding operations.
