11T062 - Walter ZIPCUT 6-Inch Cut-Off Wheel Type 1 .045 Arbor 7/8

Walter ZIPCUT 11T062: The Industry Standard for 6-Inch Cutting Performance

The Walter ZIPCUT™ 11T062 is a premium 6-inch cut-off wheel designed to deliver the highest performance in industrial metalworking applications. Recognized globally as a benchmark for quality, the ZIPCUT series combines speed, safety, and longevity into a single abrasive tool. This specific model features a 6-inch diameter, providing a significantly deeper depth of cut compared to standard 4.5-inch or 5-inch wheels, making it ideal for cutting larger pipes, structural steel, and thick plating without requiring a tool change.

Engineered with a thickness of just .045 inches (3/64"), the 11T062 slices through material with minimal resistance. This thin profile reduces the amount of metal removed, which in turn lowers energy consumption and heat generation. The result is a cleaner cut with less burr formation and virtually no discoloration on the workpiece, preserving the metallurgical integrity of sensitive alloys like stainless steel. The wheel is manufactured with a specialized grit formulation (A-60-ZIP) that is free of iron, sulfur, and chlorine, ensuring it will not contaminate stainless steel surfaces.

A standout feature of the ZIPCUT line is the patented Integrated Rib Design. These raised ribs on the surface of the wheel reduce the contact area between the wheel side and the material, significantly lowering friction and heat. Furthermore, the ribs add structural rigidity to the wheel, allowing for straighter, more precise cuts while resisting the twisting and bending forces that often cause inferior wheels to shatter. Heavily reinforced for safety, the 11T062 is built to withstand the rigors of daily industrial use while delivering the lowest overall cost-per-cut.

Packaged in Walter's exclusive protective containers, these wheels are shielded from moisture and humidity during storage, ensuring that every wheel performs as if it were factory-fresh when you open the pack. For professionals demanding efficiency and safety, the 11T062 is the superior choice.
