11T603 - Walter ZIP+ XTRA 6-Inch Type 27 Cut-Off Wheel

Industrial Grade Durability with Walter ZIP+ XTRA

The Walter 11T603 ZIP+ XTRA Type 27 Cut-Off Wheel represents the pinnacle of abrasive technology for industrial fabrication. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of heavy manufacturing and MRO environments, this 6-inch wheel combines a robust 1/16-inch profile with Walter's proprietary performance features. The ZIP+ XTRA is engineered to deliver the lowest overall cost per cut, making it a strategic choice for procurement managers focused on efficiency and budget optimization. Its extended lifespan reduces the frequency of wheel changes, thereby minimizing downtime and increasing shop floor productivity.

Safety and structural integrity are paramount in the design of the 11T603. The wheel features exclusive metal hub cladding, which significantly reinforces the center of the disc. This added strength prevents the wheel from twisting or flexing under heavy load, ensuring straighter cuts and reducing the risk of breakage. Furthermore, the patented rib design on the wheel's surface reduces surface contact friction. This innovation allows for cooler cutting temperatures, which is critical when working with heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel, as it prevents heat discoloration and warping.

The Type 27 depressed center geometry is specifically selected for this model to facilitate flush cutting. Unlike flat Type 1 wheels, the raised hub of the Type 27 allows the operator to position the wheel flat against the workpiece, making it ideal for shearing off bolts, studs, and protruding welds without damaging the surrounding surface. Whether used on carbon steel or stainless steel, the Walter ZIP+ XTRA delivers consistent, high-performance results that professionals trust.
