OVERVIEW

Extreme Removal Rate with a Fine Finish

The Walter Enduro-Flex Turbo 5" Flap Disc (SKU: 06A502) represents a significant leap forward in abrasive technology for industrial fabrication. Designed for professionals who demand speed without compromising on surface quality, this disc utilizes Walter’s exclusive Cyclone Technology. This high-performance ceramic grain blend is engineered to remove material at an aggressive rate comparable to a traditional 36-grit wheel, yet it leaves a smooth, consistent surface finish typical of a 60-grit disc. This dual-action capability allows operators to significantly reduce process time by eliminating the need to switch between aggressive grinding wheels and finishing discs for many applications.

Heat management is critical in heavy-duty grinding, especially when working with heat-sensitive materials like stainless steel. The Enduro-Flex Turbo features the patented Turbofan cooling design. This integrated backing pad structure forces air across the workpiece and the abrasive surface during rotation, drastically lowering grinding temperatures. Cooler grinding prevents heat discoloration and warping on the metal, ensuring the structural integrity of the workpiece is maintained. Furthermore, the cooler running temperature extends the life of the flap disc itself, preventing premature glazing of the ceramic grains.

Structurally, the disc is built with a Type 29 conical profile. This angled geometry provides an optimal angle of attack (typically 15 to 25 degrees) for contour blending, edge breaking, and heavy weld removal. The 5/8"-11 threaded hub allows for rapid "spin-on" mounting to standard angle grinders, reducing downtime during disc changes. Whether you are working in a heavy fabrication shop, a pipeline project, or general maintenance, the Walter Enduro-Flex Turbo delivers a vibration-free, high-efficiency solution that maximizes throughput and minimizes operator fatigue.

Key Technical Benefits

  • Cyclone Technology: A proprietary blend of ceramic grains that self-sharpen, providing consistent cutting power throughout the life of the disc.
  • Productivity Boost: Achieves a material removal rate that is among the fastest in the industry, streamlining workflow.
  • Surface Quality: Delivers a paint-ready finish in a single step, reducing the need for secondary finishing operations.

FAQ

It indicates that the disc removes material as fast as a 36 grit abrasive but leaves a finer finish comparable to a 60 grit abrasive.

While it can grind aluminum, it is primarily optimized for steel and stainless steel. For aluminum, a disc with specific anti-loading properties is usually recommended to prevent clogging.

The Turbofan backing features ribbed fins that circulate air during rotation, keeping both the disc and the workpiece cooler to prevent discoloration and extend disc life.

Yes, provided your 5-inch grinder has a 5/8"-11 spindle thread. This disc has a built-in threaded hub.

Type 29 discs like this one are conical (angled), which provides a better surface contact area for aggressive grinding and contouring. Type 27 discs are flat and better for blending on flat surfaces.

Yes, the Enduro-Flex Turbo is contaminant-free (Fe, S, Cl < 0.1%) and safe for use on stainless steel without causing corrosion or cross-contamination.

The maximum safe operating speed is 12,200 RPM.

No, this flap disc comes with an integrated backing plate and a threaded hub, so no separate backing pad or nut is required.
