OVERVIEW

Industrial Grade Stainless Steel Surface Finishing

The Walter 13D312 is a high-performance 3-inch crimped wire cup brush specifically engineered for surface preparation and cleaning on stainless steel and aluminum substrates. Distinguished by its M14x2.0 threaded nut, this brush is designed to fit specific metric angle grinders, ensuring a secure and vibration-free connection. The brush filaments are manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, which is essential for preventing ferrous contamination that can lead to rust and corrosion on stainless workpieces.

A defining feature of this Walter brush is its integrated supporting ring. In standard wire brushes, high rotational speeds often cause wires to splay outwards, reducing cleaning efficiency and safety. The supporting ring on the 13D312 constrains the wires, maintaining a tight, aggressive brushing face. As the wire tips wear down during use, the operator can remove this ring to uncover a fresh length of wire. This innovative design not only maintains consistent performance but also significantly extends the overall lifespan of the consumable, offering superior cost-efficiency for industrial operations.

The crimped wire configuration offers a degree of flexibility that is superior to knotted brushes for light-duty applications. It excels at removing surface contaminants, light rust, paint, and discoloration without removing base material or leaving deep scratches. This makes it an excellent choice for finishing tasks where preserving the surface profile is critical. The brush is dynamically balanced to ensure smooth operation, protecting both the power tool and the operator from excessive vibration.

FAQ

This brush features an M14x2.0 metric thread. Please verify your angle grinder spindle size before purchasing.

Yes, it will work, but it is not recommended. Using a stainless brush on carbon steel is more expensive than necessary, and if you use it back on stainless steel afterwards, you will contaminate the stainless surface.

The supporting ring prevents the wires from flaring out too much during use. It can be removed once the wires wear down to expose fresh wire, extending the brush's life.

This model uses crimped wire, which provides a flexible brushing action ideal for surface cleaning and finishing rather than heavy material removal.

The brush has a diameter of 3 inches (75mm).

No, as long as the brush has not been previously used on carbon steel. The wires are made of stainless steel to prevent contamination.

Once the wire wears down flush with the ring, you can typically pry or knock the ring off using a suitable tool to expose the remaining wire length.

Always check the brush label for the specific Max RPM, but 3-inch cup brushes are typically rated for use with standard angle grinders (often around 12,000 RPM).
