12D822 - Walter W-225 Mounted Point for Steel Grinding

Precision Grinding with Walter W-225 Mounted Points

The Walter 12D822 W-225 Mounted Point is a professional-grade abrasive tool engineered for heavy-duty metal removal and precision finishing. Manufactured by Walter Surface Technologies, this mounted point is specifically formulated for working with mild steel, cast iron, and tool steels. The W-225 shape, characterized by its large 2-1/2 inch diameter and 1-inch thickness, makes it an excellent choice for covering larger surface areas while still maintaining the versatility required for fitting and enlarging operations in fabrication environments.

One of the critical challenges in using mounted points is vibration, which can lead to poor surface finishes, premature tool wear, and operator fatigue. Walter addresses this by meticulously balancing every point during manufacturing. This ensures perfect concentricity and smooth rotation at high RPMs, allowing the abrasive grains to cut efficiently without bouncing or chattering on the workpiece. The result is a controlled grinding experience that yields precise dimensions and a uniform surface profile.

Ideally suited for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) and industrial fabrication, this point excels in applications such as smoothing weld seams in confined spaces, deburring castings, and preparing surfaces for subsequent finishing steps. The premium abrasive bond is designed to break down at a controlled rate, exposing fresh cutting grains to maintain a high material removal rate throughout the life of the product.

Key Applications

• Fitting and Enlarging: Ideal for modifying metal parts to fit specific tolerances.
• Surface Smoothing: Removes imperfections and flash from castings and forgings.
• Deburring: Effectively cleans up edges on machined or cut steel components.
