48R557 - Walter Surfox 9M Extension Cable Assembly 8 AWG

Premium Connectivity for Electrochemical Cleaning

The Walter 48R557 AWG8 Cable With Connection is a specialized accessory designed to enhance the versatility and operational range of Walter Surface Technologies' electrochemical weld cleaning systems, such as the Surfox series. Engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industrial metal finishing, this cable assembly provides a critical link between the power unit and the application wand or grounding clamp. With a length of 9 meters (approximately 29.5 feet), it offers a substantial increase in reach compared to standard stock cables, facilitating work on large-scale fabrications, tanks, and architectural stainless steel without the inefficiency of constantly moving the power source.

Technically, the cable utilizes an 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) conductor. This gauge is specifically selected to balance flexibility with current-carrying capacity, ensuring that the low-voltage, high-amperage current required for electrochemical cleaning and passivation is delivered without significant voltage drop or overheating. The insulation jacket is formulated to withstand the harsh environment of metalworking shops, offering resistance to cuts, abrasions, and exposure to the acidic electrolytes used in the Surfox process. The pre-installed connections are industrial-grade, ensuring a secure, low-resistance interface that maintains the integrity of the electrical circuit for consistent cleaning results.

For MRO specialists and procurement officers, the 48R557 represents a direct OEM replacement or upgrade part that ensures compatibility and safety. Using genuine Walter accessories guarantees that the electrochemical cleaning system operates within its design parameters, protecting the machine's internal components and ensuring the validity of equipment warranties. Whether used as a replacement for a damaged cable or as an extension to improve workflow efficiency, this component is essential for maintaining high productivity in stainless steel finishing operations.
