15D015 - Walter Quick-Step 3/8-24 Clamp Nut for 4-Inch Backing Pads

Secure and Reliable Abrasive Fastening

The Walter 15D015 3/8"-24 Clamp Nut is a critical accessory designed specifically for use with 4-inch backing pads within the Walter Surface Technologies ecosystem. When working with high-speed abrasive tools, the integrity of the connection between the power tool spindle and the abrasive media is paramount. This clamp nut ensures that your sanding discs, flap discs, or surface conditioning pads remain firmly locked in place, preventing slippage or detachment during operation. Engineered with precision, it fits spindles requiring a 3/8"-24 thread, a common standard for smaller pneumatic and electric angle grinders and sanders.

Part of the renowned Quick-Step system, this clamp nut is optimized to work seamlessly with Walter's high-performance backing pads. The Quick-Step system is celebrated for its ability to reduce downtime by facilitating rapid abrasive changes, and this nut plays a vital role in that efficiency. Its low-profile design ensures that it does not interfere with the workpiece, allowing operators to sand and finish surfaces at flat angles without the risk of the hardware gouging the material. This is particularly important in fine finishing applications where surface consistency is key.

Durability is a hallmark of Walter accessories, and the 15D015 is no exception. Manufactured from high-strength steel, it withstands the torque and heat generated during heavy-duty sanding applications. Whether you are removing rust, blending welds, or preparing surfaces for painting, this clamp nut provides the mechanical security needed to work with confidence. It is an essential spare part for any workshop utilizing 4-inch abrasive setups, ensuring that production never halts due to lost or stripped hardware.

Proper installation of the clamp nut is simple yet crucial. It threads easily onto the tool spindle, sandwiching the backing pad securely. Operators should always ensure the threads are clean and free of debris before installation to maintain the longevity of both the nut and the tool spindle. By choosing genuine Walter accessories, you ensure compatibility and safety, maintaining the high standards of your industrial finishing processes.
