11T662V - Walter ZIP ONE 6-Inch Type 27 Cutting Wheel for Thin Gauge Steel - 5 Pack

Precision Cutting for Thin Gauge Metals

The Walter ZIP ONE 6" x 1/32" Type 27 Cutting Wheel (11T662V) represents the pinnacle of abrasive technology for thin gauge metal fabrication. Designed with a thickness of just 1mm (1/32"), this wheel is engineered to deliver exceptionally fast, cool, and precise cuts in steel and stainless steel. The Type 27 depressed center profile adds a layer of rigidity and safety, making it the preferred choice for industrial professionals who require accuracy without compromising on durability.

In industrial environments such as HVAC manufacturing, aerospace, and automotive body shops, heat management is critical. The ZIP ONE excels by cutting freely and quickly, which significantly minimizes heat buildup. This "cool cutting" action prevents discoloration and warping, which is especially vital when working with heat-sensitive materials or thin sheets that are prone to distortion. The result is a pristine cut that preserves the material's structural integrity and surface finish.

Operator safety and comfort are paramount in the design of the ZIP ONE. The wheel is heavily reinforced to withstand the stresses of high-speed cutting while maintaining a vibration-free operation. This stability allows for straighter cuts and reduces operator fatigue during extended use. By producing clean, burr-free edges, the ZIP ONE also improves workflow efficiency by eliminating the need for time-consuming secondary grinding or deburring processes.
