OVERVIEW

Restore Precision Performance with the Walter 48H470 Gear Box

The Walter 48H470 Gear Box is a critical OEM replacement component designed specifically for the maintenance and repair of Walter Surface Technologies' premium finishing tools. Engineered to the exact specifications of the Big Buff III and Line-Mate III series, this gear box assembly ensures that your equipment continues to operate at peak efficiency. In industrial environments where surface finishing tools are subjected to continuous heavy loads, the gear box serves as the heart of the transmission system, converting motor power into the consistent torque and speed required for uniform finishing, polishing, and cleaning applications.

Over time, the internal components of any power tool's transmission can succumb to wear and tear, leading to symptoms such as increased vibration, excessive noise, overheating, or a loss of rotational force under load. Replacing a worn unit with the genuine 48H470 assembly addresses these issues directly. This unit features a robust metal housing that not only protects the precision-machined gears within but also acts as a thermal sink, helping to dissipate heat generated during extended operation. The internal gearing is manufactured to tight tolerances, ensuring smooth engagement and power transfer that matches the tool's original factory performance.

Maintenance professionals understand that using non-OEM or generic parts in high-performance tools can lead to premature failure or suboptimal results. The Walter 48H470 guarantees compatibility, eliminating the guesswork often associated with tool repair. By restoring the mechanical integrity of the tool's head, operators can regain the tactile feedback and control necessary for delicate finishing tasks on stainless steel, aluminum, and other metals. This assembly comes pre-lubricated and ready for installation, minimizing downtime in the workshop.

Investing in a replacement gear box is a cost-effective alternative to replacing the entire tool. It extends the lifecycle of your Walter equipment, maximizing the return on investment for your industrial assets. Whether you are servicing a single unit or maintaining a fleet of finishing tools, the 48H470 provides the reliability and durability expected from the Walter brand.

FAQ

The 48H470 is designed specifically for the Walter Big Buff III (30-A 265) and the Walter Line-Mate III (30-A 268).

Yes, genuine Walter gear box assemblies typically come pre-greased with the appropriate high-temperature lubricant for immediate installation.

Common signs include excessive grinding noise from the head, the spindle stopping while the motor continues to run (slipping), or excessive heat generation at the front of the tool.

Yes, this is a genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part from Walter Surface Technologies, ensuring exact fit and material specifications.

While individual gears may sometimes be available, replacing the entire 48H470 assembly is recommended to ensure all mating surfaces are fresh and the housing tolerances are correct.

Installation requires basic mechanical skills and standard hand tools. You will need to disassemble the tool head from the motor body. Consult your tool's schematic for the exact procedure.

If the vibration is caused by worn bearings or gears within the transmission head, replacing the gear box will likely resolve the issue. However, check the motor bearings as well.

The gear box assembly generally includes the housing and internal gearing mechanisms. Please verify the specific schematic for the Big Buff III to see if the output spindle is integrated or separate.
