34B012 - Walter 6-Inch Clip-On Cutting Guard

Enhanced Safety for Metal Cutting Operations

The Walter Plastic Closed Guard, 6" (SKU: 34B012) is an essential accessory for metalworkers and fabricators who prioritize safety and efficiency. Designed to work seamlessly with 6-inch angle grinders, this innovative guard attachment transforms a standard open grinding guard into a closed cutting guard. In many industrial environments, safety regulations require a closed guard when using abrasive cut-off wheels to contain potential debris and sparks. This Walter accessory provides that necessary compliance without the need to purchase and swap out heavy, expensive metal guards.

Lightweight and Durable Design

Constructed from high-quality, impact-resistant plastic, the Walter 34B012 is engineered to withstand the rigors of daily industrial use while remaining exceptionally lightweight. Unlike traditional metal guards that can add significant weight to the front of the tool, causing operator fatigue, this plastic guard maintains the balance of your angle grinder. This ensures that operators can work for longer periods with greater precision and comfort, reducing the strain on wrists and arms during extensive cutting tasks.

Effortless Installation and Maintenance

One of the standout features of this closed guard is its user-friendly design. It features a quick-connect mechanism that allows it to be effortlessly attached to the existing metal guard of the grinder. No special tools or complex assembly are required; simply clip it on, and you are ready to cut safely. Furthermore, the design is optimized to allow for hassle-free changing of cutting wheels. You do not need to remove the plastic guard to swap out a worn disc, saving valuable time and keeping workflow interruptions to a minimum.

Superior Protection and Visibility

While its primary function is safety, the Walter Plastic Closed Guard does not compromise on visibility. The streamlined profile ensures that the operator maintains a clear line of sight to the cutting zone, allowing for precise cuts every time. By effectively containing sparks and abrasive particles, it protects not only the operator but also the surrounding work environment. Whether you are working in a fabrication shop, on a construction site, or in a maintenance facility, this guard is a smart investment in personal protective equipment.
